Design and Experimental Verification of a 72/48 Switched Reluctance Motor for Low-Speed Direct-Drive Mining Applications

Typically, a geared drive system is used to connect an induction motor of 1500 rpm with a Raymond Pulverizer of 105 rpm in mining applications. This system suffers from low efficiency and a heavy motor drive. This paper proposes a novel design of a 75 kW, 72/48 switched reluctance motor (SRM) for a...
