Holonomicity analysis of electromechanical system on the example of simple switched reluctance motor

The paper deals with a single-phase reluctance motor used to test the motion equations of an electromechanical system. The identification of the motor electric parameters as a function of the rotation angle of the rotor was carried out using AC 50 Hz voltage source. A mechanical part of the system was designed as a physical pendulum containing the motor rotor and a metal bar mounted on the rotor axis. The parameters of the mechanical part were measured during the pendulum oscillations. The work presents the characteristics and motion equation parameters of the motor dynamics. The reluctance motor motion equation does not fullfil the power balance. The parameters of the motion equations obtained from the experiment and from the second order Lagrange’a equations are compared. The derivation of motion equation, together with a discussion of holonomicity of electromechanical systems is also presented.
