A switched reluctance generator is controlled such that flux growth in a phase winding occurs at a faster rate during the initial part of the phase inductance cycle and at a second, slower rate during the subsequent part of the phase inductance cycle. The difference between flux growth and decay may be achieved either by applying different voltages during the two parts of the phase inductance cycle or by applying the same voltage over only part of the phase winding during the initial part of the phase inductance cycle and then applying that voltage across the phase winding thereafter. It is advantageous to make the increase in flux more rapid than its decay because minimising the length of time that the flux is present while the phase inductance is rising will minimise the production of unwanted (motoring) torque.
