Abstract

The aeronautic generator requires many important characteristics, such as reliability, high power density, high capability, low weight, environment adaptability and fault tolerance. Switched reluctance motor (SRM) is simplicity, low cost, high fault tolerance, high power density and high speed capability, what's more, it can realize dual function of both starter and generator easily, which could fully satisfy the request of aeronautic generator. This paper is devoted to illustrate a rapid way to design a low volume and high power density switched reluctance generator. With the assistance of the Ansoft software, a method based on inductance curve is provided to select the parameters of the switched reluctance generator preliminarily, which could help to reduce time of optimization design greatly. Then the ANSYS software and MATLAB software is used to calculate the accurate performance of the generator, the simulation results show that the presented design method is efficient and effective.
