Abstract :
Shareware softwares such as advanced vehicle simulator have extensively been used to simulate and design electric and hybrid vehicles. However, that software can only model the steady-state mode, and one can not see the dynamic performance of electric motors in the simulation. On the other hand, the switched reluctance motor model hasn´t been seen in the advanced vehicle simulator software library yet. In this paper, utilizing MATLAB/SIMULINK software, dynamic modeling of a switched reluctance motor is investigated and then simulated. In doing so, mechanical components of an electric vehicle are also called from the advanced vehicle simulator software library and then linked with the electric motor. Finally a typical electric vehicle is modeled and investigated. Simulation results show the switched reluctance motor performance along with other components for a typical city drive cycle
