Assessing the flux linkage is an important feature for electric machines, including switched reluctance machines. However, sensor calibration errors and noise impose a problem known as drift, which is caused by the integration process used to estimate the flux linkage. This paper proposes a flux linkage estimation with a drift cancellation technique. The technique accounts for the switched reluctance machine’s working and driving principles. Simulation and experimental results are used to validate the proposed method. Additionally, a goodness-of-fit analysis is performed to support the outcomes. A R2 factor of 0.9823 is found between the experimentally and simulation-estimated flux linkage. The results indicate that the method works properly and may be further used in control techniques and iron losses estimation Ver menos
