Regenerative Braking Control Strategies of Switched Reluctance Machine for Electric Bicycle

摘要

SRM is suitable to be used as drivers of electric bicycle (E-bike). A nonlinear dynamics model based on Matlab/Simulink of E-bike and four regenerative braking strategies of SRM are presented in this paper, such as most feedback power control strategy, most feedback efficiency control, fixed torque control, fixed feedback current control. A hybrid control strategy of PWM mode and current chopping mode was applied for a prototype. The experiment results show that the brake strategy satisfied the design requirement.
