Comparison of current waveforms for noise reduction in switched reluctance motors

A comparison of noise reduction currents in 36-24 and 18-12 switched reluctance motors in all operating region is presented. Radial force profile in these two machines are compared. It is seen that the difference in radial force profile causes different optimized current to reduce the noise in switched reluctance motor. Analysis, simulation, and experimental results are presented to verify the proposed method in noise reduction.
