ABSTRACT: This paper presents new
converter for torque ripple minimization of three phases Switched Reluctance
Motor (SRM). The proposed converter has basic passive circuit which includes
two diodes and one capacitor to the front end of an asymmetric converter with a
specific end goal to get a high magnetization and demagnetization voltage. In
view of this boost capacitor, the charge and demagnetization voltage are
higher. Accordingly, it can reduce the negative torque generation from the tail
current and enhance the output power. The proposed converter circuit is
equipped for minimizing the SRM torque ripple furthermore enhancing the average
torque when contrasted with traditional converter circuit. A three-phase SRM is
modeled and the simulation output for no load and stacked condition depicts
that the proposed converter has better performance when contrasted with
traditional converter. It is appropriate for electric vehicle applications. The
proposed framework is simulated by utilizing MATLAB/Simulink environment and
their outcomes are examined extravagantly.
