This study analyses the influence of the control parameters on the iron loss of the switched reluctance motor under different control modes by using the motor iron loss model which is suitable for different control modes. The motor iron loss model combines the magnetic equivalent circuit (MEC) method with the finite element (FE) method. First, the static flux density of the motor is obtained by the FE software, and then the relationship between the characteristics of static flux density and dynamic flux density is analysed through the MEC method. In combination with the motor dynamic MATLAB/Simulink model, the dynamic flux density of different feature regions is obtained. Simultaneously, the iron loss model of the motor is established in MATLAB/Simulink according to the loss model so that the motor loss can be calculated rapidly and accurately. Then, the influence of the control parameters on the motor loss is calculated and analysed under angle position control and current chopping control. The accuracy of the loss model and analysis results are verified by experiments.
