The paper demonstrates simulation and steady-state performance of three phase squirrel cage induction motor and detection of rotor broken bar fault using MATLAB. This simulation model is successfully used in the fault detection of rotor broken bar for the induction machines. A dynamic model using PWM inverter and mathematical modelling of the motor is developed. The dynamic simulation of the sm...

-This paper develops a novel spectrum enhancement method to simplify the spectrum representation. It uses a forward synchronous transform to convert three phase current signals into the two current signals in the synchronous reference frame. The spectrum obtained by applying Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to one of the transformed current signals is then maximized by varying the initial phase in ...

The detection of faults in a dynamic system can help to avoid severe damage where system reliability and safety are essential. An induction motor can fail either due to internal faults such as short circuit of motor leads; broken rotor bar and cracked rotor end rings or by external faults such as phase failure, asymmetry of main supply and mechanical overload (Karami et al 2010). Detection and ...

The problem of failures in induction motors is a large concern due to its significant influence over industrial production. Therefore a large number of detection techniques were presented to avoid this problem. This paper presents the comparison results of induction motor rotor fault detection using three methods: motor current signature analysis (MCSA), surface vibration (SV), and instantaneou...

This paper deals with the finite element analysis and experimental study concerning the influence of the broken bar and rotor dynamic eccentricity faults on the magnetic field outside a squirrel-cage induction motor. The spatial distribution of the magnetic field, the time variation of the magnetic flux density at a point outside the machine and the time variation of the electromotive force del...

Kit Fine (2007) argues that Frege’s puzzle and its relatives demonstrate a need for a basic reorientation of the field of semantics. According to this reorientation, the domain of semantic facts would be closed not under the classical consequence relation but only under a stronger relation Fine calls “manifest consequence.” I examine Fine’s informally sketched analyses of manifest consequence, ...
