The report compares two forms of electronic variable speed drives, the inverter fed induction motor and the switched reluctance motor drive. The drives selected represent the most advanced of their type readily available. Results from detailed laboratory testing are presented for drives rated at 7.5 kW including performance characteristics (power, torques, speed and efficiencies), noise and vibration levels and the harmonic content of torque and current. The report also includes a technical evaluation of the motors and controllers concentrating on the strengths and weaknesses of the basic technology rather than of the particular drive tested. The suitability of the drives for various applications including machine tools, traction and general industrial use are discussed.
