A New Post-Fault Reconfiguration Strategy under Open-Phase Operation Conditions of Asymmetrical Double-Star Induction Machines

Investigating Direct Torque Control of Six-Phase Induction Machines Under Open Phase Fault Conditions

This paper presents analysis and evaluation of classical direct torque control(DTC), for controlling a symmetrical six phase induction motor (SPIM) under open phasefault conditions. The machine has two three-phase windings spatially shifted by 60 electricaldegrees. The strategy of the proposed method consists of choosing the switching modesaccording to the configuration of living phases in such...

Open-Phase Fault Operation on Multiphase Induction Motor Drives

Multiphase machines have been recognized in the last few years like an attractive alterna‐ tive to conventional three-phase ones. This is due to their usefulness in a niche of applica‐ tions where the reduction in the total power per phase and, mainly, the high overall system reliability and the ability of using the multiphase machine in faulty conditions are required. Electric vehicle and rail...

Fault Current Characteristics of the DFIG under Asymmetrical Fault Conditions

During non-severe fault conditions, crowbar protection is not activated and the rotor windings of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) are excited by the AC/DC/AC converter. Meanwhile, under asymmetrical fault conditions, the electrical variables oscillate at twice the grid frequency in synchronous dq frame. In the engineering practice, notch filters are usually used to extract the positive ...

Fault Diagnosis and Fault-Tolerant SVPWM Technique of Six-phase Converter under Open-Switch Fault

In this paper, a new open-switch fault diagnosis method is proposed for the six-phase AC-DC converter based on the difference between the phase current and the corresponding reference using an adaptive threshold. The open-switch faults are detected without any additional equipment and complicated calculations, since the proposed fault detection method is integrated with the controller required ...
