A programmable, closed-loop four quadrant control system for a switched reluctance motor employs feedback control, angle control and current control. The feedback control can be implemented with a speed feedback loop and/or a torque feedback loop. The angle control digitally synchronizes stator phase current pulses with rotor position, and the current control acts as a chopping or bang-bang controller to limit magnitude of the stator phase current pulses.

Regulation of inverter-machine drive system torque and frequency in accordance with operator commands is achieved by the use of an improved, microcomputer-based, control apparatus. At machine frequencies less than a preselected machine frequency, inverter pulse width modulation signal pulses and half cycle polarity signal pulses are supplied by the control apparatus to the inverter to regulate the duration and conduction sequence, respectively, of inverter switching devices in accordance with pulse width modulation signal data computed by equilateral triangulation and stored half cycle polarity signal data. At frequencies above the preselected machine frequency, when computation of inverter pulse width modulation signal data becomes impractical, inverter pulse width modulation signal pulses are synthesized from stored data. This achieves simplification of control hardware and provides improved machine drive system performance.

A start-up control for a switched reluctance motor employs an encloder for generating a rotor position information signal for each stator phase and a start-up signal processor. The processor receives the rotor position information signals and processes them in accordance with a direction command. To initiate forward rotation, the information signals are complemented; to initiate reverse rotation, the information signals for adjacent phases are AND-coupled.

A load-commutated inverter synchronous machine drive system control apparatus comprises at least one microcomputer for determining optimum or desired values for inverter turn-off time, inverter link current and machine air gap flux from machine drive system voltage and currents. Inverter frequency is regulated in accordance with the difference in magnitude between optimum and actual inverter turn-off time to minimize the inverter turn-off angle irrespective of machine frequency, thereby reducing synchronous machine reactive power. Inverter link current and synchronous machine field current are regulated responsive to the difference in magnitude between optimum and actual inverter link current and the difference in magnitude between optimum and actual machine air gap flux, respectively, thereby assuring machine operation at maximum efficiency.
