In [9] the authors propose the variation of the turn on terminal voltage of a Switched Reluctance Generator. It is θon of the converter switches using a fuzzy logic based implemented using a closed loop feedback that senses the shunt controller. The results of this research show that the capacitor smoothed generated voltage at the generator efficiency of the machine increases when operation at high terminals. The voltage error feeds a PI controller that in turn governs the switches of the electronic converter used to drive speeds takes place. the generator. With this approach the amount of energy stored Within this context, this paper, presents a closed loop in the winding in each cycle is controlled and leads directly to SRG terminal voltage control that controls the the control of the generated voltage. A mathematical model magnetization level of the phases by adding an that considers magnetic saturation is used to represent the electromechanical magnetic flux boosting stage during the reluctance generator, which is driven by an asymmetric half magnetization period that improves the electromechanical bridge converter. An appropriate sequence of turning off the switches of each phase of the generator is shown to allow for a conversion process during the magnetization of the machine better usage of mechanical power in the electromechanical phases. The strategy develo
