A non linear analytical model of switched reluctance machines

Nowadays, the switched reluctance machine are widely used. To determine their performances and to elaborate control strategy, we generally use the linear analytical model. Unhappily, this last is not very accurate. To yield accurate modelling results, we use then numerical models based on either 2D or 3D Finite Element Method. However, this approach is very expensive in terms of computation time and remains suitable to study the behaviour of eventually a whole device. However, it is not, a priori, adapted to elaborate control strategy for electrical machines. This paper deals with a non linear analytical model in terms of variable inductances. The theoretical development of the proposed model is introduced. Then, the model is applied to study the behaviour of a whole controlled switched reluctance machine. The parameters of the structure are identified from a 2D numerical model. They can also be determined from an experimental bench. Then, the results given by the proposed model are compared to those issue from the 2D-FEM approach and from the classical linear analytical model

Commande vectorielle de la machine a reluctance variable à stator lisse. Prise en compte de la saturation et de l'amortissement

This paper deals with the field-oriented control of a smooth stator, non excited salient rotor synchronous machine. First, a nonlinear modelling of the machine, taking into account both damping and saturation effects, is developed in PARK's rotor-bound frame. Then, a vector control strategy, which maintains a constant saturation level in the machine, is set-up. This strategy, wich consists in keeping the stator direct current at a high constant value, allows to linearize the model of the machine and to control it in the same way as a DC machine. A numerical simulation of a VRM, fed by a PWM-VSI and controlled thanks to this control strategy, is built up and the computed results are given and commented.
Cet article est consacré à la commande vectorielle d'une machine à réluctance variable à stator lisse et rotor massif. D'abord, une modélisation non linéaire de la machine a été effectuée dans le repère de Park. Cette dernière permet de prendre en compte l'effet d'amortissement dû au rotor massif, ainsi que celui de la saturation inhérent à ce genre de machine. Ensuite, une stratégie de contrôle vectoriel, qui maintient un niveau de saturation constant dans la machine, a été élaborée. Cette stratégie, qui consiste à maintenir le courant direct statorique à une valeur élevée, permet de linéariser le modèle de la machine et ainsi de pouvoir la contrôler comme une machine à courant continu. Une simulation numérique de la machine à réluctance variable, alimentée par un onduleur de tension à MLI et commandée par la stratégie mise au point, a été effectuée. Les résultats de cette simulation sont donnés et commentés à la fin de l'article
