This paper describes the speed sensorless vector control method of the parallel connected induction motor drive fed by a single inverter. Speed and rotor fluxes of the induction motor are estimated by natural observer with load torque adaptation and adaptive rotor flux observer. The performance parameters speed and rotor fluxes are estimated from the measured terminal voltages and currents. Fou...

Different mathematical models have been used over the years to examine different problems associated with induction motors. These range from the simple equivalent circuit models to more complex d,q models and abc models which allow the inclusion of various forms of impedance and/or voltage unbalance. This paper presents speed torque characteristics of induction motor which are calculated on the...

multiple coupled circuit modeling of squirrel-cage induction motors, or winding function approach is the most detailed and complete analytical model used to analyze the performance of the faulty induction motors. this paper extends the above-mentioned model to a saturable model including variable degrees of the saturation effects using an appropriate air gap function and novel techniques for lo...

This paper presents yeah the eccentricity Fault in induction motor. decision tree and Power spectrum Analysis methods are used to analyze spectrum. Induction motor is very much like industry. It also a lot due its easy control quality. All three-phase motors have mismatch eccentricity. Due this problem we got speed pulsation, vibration acoustic noise, friction between stator rotor. The proposed...

Single-phase squirrel cage and three-phase induction electromotors are the most popular electromotors used in industry from long ago. When an induction motor starts with direct connection method, it takes a lot of current from the power supply (several times the nominal current); so, several methods have been devised to start such electromotors. These methods either reduce the voltage of the st...

Due to harmonics, sudden voltage dips and large fluctuating torque causes a great problem in the starting of large induction motor. Some times due to tripping of relay, equipment failure, surge, no load or overload motor voltage fluctuates resulting in the failure of motor starting. This paper discusses the solution of these problems by using soft starter technique. Soft starting of induction m...

Induction motors need to be monitored regularly because it involves the company's productivity. The induction motor monitoring method in this study uses a current variable which is transformed using Discrete Wavelet Transform. Transform (DWT) used results are satisfactory for detecting short circuit stator winding of an motor. Of many types and levels discrete wavelet transforms, haar transform...
