ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Two distinct simulation methods have been developed to simulate the single and the multi-phase excited current waveforms of the switched reluctance machine (SRM) under single pulse mode operation. These simulation methods are explained and evaluated in this thesis. A non-commercial finite element package that takes the SRM's nonlinear magnetic property into account is used in this regard. The simulation program uses the finite element solution directly during the simulation. Both simulation methods have been investigated in terms of result and total simulation time. In this investigation it is shown how feasible the simulation methods will be with the next generation of fast computers. The factors affecting the simulated current waveforms of the SRM under single pulse mode operation are investigated in detail in this thesis. With these factors taken into account, the measured and simulated multi-phase current waveforms are compared with each other and discussed. AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Twee verskillende simulasie metodes is ontwikkel om die enkel- en multi-fase stroomgolfvorms van die geskakelde reluktansiemasjien (GRM) onder enkelpulsmodus-werking te simuleer. In hierdie tesis word hierdie simulasie metodes verduidelik en geëvalueer. 'n Nie-kommersiële eindige element pakket wat die nielinieêre magnetiese eienskap van die GRM in ag neem is in hierdie verband gebruik. Die simulasie program gebruik die eindige-element oplossing direk gedurende die simulasie. Beide simulasie metodes is ondersoek in terme van resultaat en simulasietyd. In hierdie ondersoek word getoon hoe uitvoerbaar hierdie tipe simulasie metodes gaan wees met die volgende hoë spoed generasie rekenaars. Die faktore wat die gesimuleerde stroomgolfvorms van die GRM onder enkelpulsmodus-werking beïnvloed word deeglik in hierdie tesis ondersoek. Met hierdie faktore in ag geneem word die gemete en gesimuleerde multi-fase stroomgolfvorms met mekaar vergelyk en bespreek. 2012-08-27T11:35:32Z 2012-08-27T11:35:32Z 2003-12 Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10019.1/53590 en_ZA Stellenbosch University 121 p. : ill. application/pdf Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University |
