Tj. Busch et al., MAGNETIC-CIRCUIT MODELING OF THE FIELD REGULATED RELUCTANCE MACHINE .2. SATURATION MODELING AND RESULTS, IEEE transactions on energy conversion, 11(1), 1996, pp. 56-61
This paper explores and offers solutions for two causes of simulation
instabilities which occur when modeling machines using magnetic circui
ts. An algorithm for dynamic simulation of electric machines based on
the magnetic circuit model (MCM) developed in Part I of this paper is
augmented to include the ability to model magnetic saturation without
numerical oscillations. The resulting MCM algorithm is implemented in
a digital computer program which is well suited for both simulation of
transients in non-sinusoidally wound machines such as a Field Regulat
ed Reluctance Machine (FRRM), and for design. The model developed is v
erified using a laboratory prototype FRRM, converter, and controller.
