| Abstract |
In automobile, the introduction of electronically commutated motors has been accompanied by a proliferation of electronic devices. With this proliferation of electronic devices, an emphasis has been placed on EMC issues. This paper is proposed to use SRM as a radiator cooling fan in automotive applications. To drive SRM, Energy efficient C-dump converter is applied. Energy efficient C-dump converter, derived from the conventional C-dump converter, is proposed as a switched reluctance motor (SRM) drive for automotive engine cooling application. It is verified more efficient than other converters through simulation and experiments. And also SRM is valid for automotive applications that have strict EMC standards. Simulation and experimental results obtained on a laboratory prototype are finally presented to evaluate the performance. |
