This paper makes the case that Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) is an exceptionally attractive technology to respond to the increasing demand in propulsion applications for high-efficiency, high-performance, and low-cost motors with a more secure supply chain. The paper also presents methods to effectively reduce torque ripple and acoustic noise, which have been the major issues impeding the widespread use of SRMs. Finally, SRM designs for two propulsion motors, one for an e-bike and the other for a hybrid electric vehicle application, are presented which have been proposed to replace permanent magnet machines.

用于推进应用的开关磁阻电机的案例

本文论证了开关磁阻电机 (SRM) 是一项极具吸引力的技术，可满足推进应用对高效、高性能和低成本电机日益增长的需求，并提供更安全的供应链。本文还提出了有效降低转矩脉动和声学噪声的方法，这些都是阻碍 SRM 广泛使用的主要问题。最后，介绍了两个推进电机的 SRM 设计，一个用于电动自行车，另一个用于混合动力电动汽车应用，已被提议用于替代永磁电机。
