Considerations regarding dynamic regimes of reluctance synchronous motors

A Matlab-Simulink model for the reluctance synchronous motor is presented in this paper. The synchronous machine equations written in the two axes theory are the starting point. A series of simulations emphasizing some parameters effects on the motor behaviour in dynamic regime have been carried out with the help of this model. A test bench for reluctance synchronous motors is presented further on. The connection schemes corresponding to the steady state and dynamic regimes are detailed. The acquisition program, specially designed and conceived, is also presented. The paper closes with a few suggestive experimental results and conclusions.
