Abstract

Abstract. Modeling of a switched reluctance motor (SRM) is to predict the motor performance with a reasonable estimate over a wide range of speed and torque. Obtaining the realistic model of SRM which operates in a region of magnetic saturation due to complex structural implementation progress is too complicated process, with long response time. This paper introduces a linear model of double-stator SRM (DSSRM) which will be applied on direct-drive washing machine application. The proposed method uses a developed simple magnetic equivalent circuit for modeling a DSSRM. The electromagnetic characteristics of the designed DSSRM are analyzed by finite element method (FEM) to validate the extracted results of the model. Finally, the experimental results with appropriate accuracy are achieved for modeling and magnetic analysis of the evaluated DSSRM.
