In Summary
Due to the absence of rotor windings, SRM is very simple to construct, has
a low inertia and allows an extremely high-speed operation. SRM operates
in constant torque from zero speed up to the rated speed. Above rated
speed up to a certain speed, the operation is in constant power. The range
of this constant power operation depends on the motor design and its
control.
The brushless DC/AC has the benefit of embedded energy source, high
torque densities and high speed rage. Already implemented on the Toyota
Prius and Toyota SUV proved to have a good behavior in HEVs
The induction machines are a candidate in the fields of HEVs too. Them
manufacture already reached a lot of experience during time and several
optimization research activities were performed to push the limits of them
performances. Studies proved that using them “in wheel”, like in the case of
Audi E-Tron reached the request of fast and easy to control HEV.
