Double-stator switched reluctance machines benefit from a high torque density and a low radial force level in comparison with conventional switched reluctance machines resulting in a lower vibration and acoustic noise. Therefore, they are suitable candidate for automotive applications. However, torque pulsation which is also a source for vibration is still remained and should be alleviate by dimension optimization of the machine. This paper presents a design optimization of a double-stator switched reluctance machine for improving the magnetic torque quality of the machine. For this purpose finite element method along with response surface methodology is used to optimize three parameters of the machine to maximize torque quality factor i.e. the average torque to torque ripple ratio in the machine. Genetic algorithm method is also employed as an optimization tool. The aim of optimization is to maximize the ratio of average torque to torque ripple. Finite element results are presented to verify the optimization method.

<p>The switched reluctance machine against its several merits such as simplicity, robustness, less cost manufacturing and large speed still suffers from its undesirable torque ripple and acoustic noise. Compared to different candidates of hybrid and electric vehicle engine, the frequency of use of SRM in traction drives is improved with the different optimizing torque oscillation solutions. Most of studies used the generic or specific model of switched reluctance machine in the Simulink library (6/4,8/6 and 10/8). Despite, a new non linear model simply implemented in Simulink tool usinga static finite element analysis a previous study is used in this work. Hence, a 12/8 non linear SRM drive system is simulated using MATLAB toolbox tested with an intelligent controller (FLC) in order to minimize the torque ripple of an oriented starter –alternator application of a hybrid vehicle.</p>

Considerable vibration and acoustic noise limit the further application of Switched Reluctance Machine (SRM) due to its structural characteristics and working principle. An improved SRM model with double auxiliary slots (DAS) was proposed, in which the direction of the magnetic line of force was adjusted, and the radial magnetic density in the air gap was reduced by changing the local tooth profiles of the stator and the rotor. The effects of initial rotor position and turn-on angle and turn-off angle on radial Electromagnetic Force (EMF) and maximum torque were investigated. The results indicate the radial EMF and torque increase significantly with the advancement of the turn-on angle or the delay of the turn-off angle. In the orthogonal experimental design, initial rotor position, turn-on angle, and turn-off angle were taken as the factors, and the optimal set of parameters that minimized radial EMF was determined according to a greater output torque. In contrast to conventional SRM, the radial EMF of the SRM with DAS significantly reduces when the optimal set is applied.

The main objective of modeling a switched reluctance machine is to derive a mathematical function to relate the outputs to the inputs. Due to the nonlinear relationship between the variables of torque, flux linkage, current and angular position of the rotor, Switched Reluctance Machine (SRM) modeling is a very challenging task and an open problem. Modeling is usually done in two situations, modeling a single machine, or modeling a set of machines. Each one must fulfill different requirements. This work presents a survey of different SRM modeling approaches, evaluating its advantages and limitations when modeling a single machine or a set of machines.
