Abstract

An improved force distribution function (FDF) of linear switched reluctance motors (LSRMs) based on nonlinear inductance modeling for force ripple minimization and smooth speed operation is proposed. Nonlinear inductance profile is divided into three segments with a K factor that depicts current effect on inductance of the LSRM. Speed controller based on the proposed FDF and the nonlinear inductance model is constructed. Both simulation and experimental results verify the proposed FDF with the nonlinear inductance modeling effectively reduce force ripples with uniform speed response.
