Abstract :
This paper presents new "C-dump" topologies for switched reluctance motor drives: the "full-bridge C-dump converter" with and without the equalization leg. The increase in the number of switches is acceptable since a standard full bridge transistor module is used. The paper also shows the commutation and control strategy applied to these topologies. These topologies can be used to produce low-power, low-cost switched reluctance drives
