Abstract
Various embodiments are described herein for methods and systems for controlling a switched reluctance machine (SRM) having an axially extending rotor mounted to a shaft, an axially extending stator disposed coaxially and concentrically with the rotor, the rotor and stator having a plurality of salient poles, the stator poles protruding radially towards the rotor poles, and a plurality of electrical coils wound about the stator poles including a plurality of separate phase coils defining a plurality of phases of the SRM. In one example embodiment, the method comprises providing a control system operatively coupled to a current controller of the SRM, where the control system is configured to generate a unique set of current reference profiles based on an objective function and at least one constraint function and operating the SRM based on the unique set of current profiles generated by the control system.
