The structure and the overall control programme of Switched Reluctance Drive（SRD），and the nonlinear mathematical model of Switched Reluctance Motor （SRM） as well as the principle of fuzzy adaptive PID control are analyzed. It establishes the dynamic simulation model of SRD based on fuzzy adaptive PID control in Matlab/Simulink. The simulation results verify that the SRD based on fuzzy adaptive PID control can reduce speed overshoot and torque ripple obviously，improve the robustness of the system，and get better dynamic performance.
