The Unbalanced Radial Force of In-Wheel Switched Reluctance Motors Effect on Vehicle Performance under Stability Condition

Abstract EN

This paper studies the unbalanced radial force of in-wheel switched reluctance motors effect on vehicle performance under stability condition.

First, the IWM-EV vehicle model which highlights the new factors of the rotor, stator, SRM vertical force, and airgap deflection was adopted.

And the vehicle comparison models were established to make a contrastive study about IWM-EV new structure effects.

Then, Routh’s stability criterion method was adopted to judge the vehicle system’s stability condition.

It includes two parts: characteristic polynomial of the vehicle system which is served to calculate the IWM-EV system Routh array and Routh’s stability criterion which is used to judge the vehicle system’s stability condition.

The effect of the new structure on vehicle performance was further discussed under stability condition.

It mainly includes two aspects: vehicle vibration mode analysis which is used to study vehicle vibration characteristics and amplitude-frequency analysis which is served to research transfer response characteristics of the vehicle system.

The result shows that the new structure of IWM-EV has a negative effect on vehicle stability performance.

The SRM vertical force will change vehicle stability characteristic.

In some severe cases, it will even destroy IWM-EV’s stability.
