This paper proposes a new scheme of induction motor parameter estimation using Genetic algorithm (GA) for condition monitoring. The flux linkage model and torque model of an induction motor is adapted to the estimation. The scheme is developed to obtain all the motor parameters: stator and rotor resistance, stator and rotor leaking reactance and magnetizing reactance, which paves the way to dia...

In order to accurately recognize the stator winding inter-turn short circuit fault of induction motors, a novel method for fault diagnosis was proposed based on a bare-bones particle swarm optimization algorithm (BBPSO) and support vector machine (SVM); and feasible diagnostic steps were also introduced. In this method, the feature vector of induction motor in different conditions was extracted...

The increasing size of wind farms requires power system stability analysis including dynamic models of wind Power generation. Nowadays, the most widely used generator type for units above 1MW is the doubly-fed induction machine. The behavior of these machines during grid failure is an important issue. In this paper, a theoretical analysis of the dynamic behavior of the doubly fed induction gene...

The subject of on-line detection and location of inter-turn short circuits in the stator windings of three-phase induction motors is discussed, and a noninvasive approach, based on the computer-aided monitoring of the stator current Parks Vector, is introduced. Experimental results, obtained by using a special fault producing test rig, demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed technique, fo...

Received Jun 9, 2017 Revised Nov 20, 2017 Accepted Dec 11, 2017 Gears are important component of the rotational power transmission system and are largely used in variable load and speed applications. The faults on the gear generate excessive vibration which leads to breakdown of the machine. Sensor based methods could diagnose gear faults but proved to be expensive and have limited applications...

The paper describes an investigation of fault tolerant control strategies for permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) driven by a fault-tolerant inverter. The inverter is a topology-modified inverter with fault-tolerant capability, which can be configured as the standard 3-phase 6-switch inverter and reconfigured as 3-phase 4-switch or 2-phase 4switch inverter under the fault condition. By an...

Received Mei 9, 2017 Revised Jun 20, 2017 Accepted Jul 27, 2017 The Squirrel Cage Induction motor(SCIM) with advanced power electronic inverters presents the greater advantages on cost and energy efficiency as compared with other industrial solutions for varying speed applications. In recent, the inverter fed induction motors are being popular in the industries. These inverter fed-motors are re...

In this paper Bond Graph modeling, simulation and monitoring of ultrasonic linear motors are presented. Only the vibration of piezoelectric ceramics and stator will be taken into account. Contact problems between stator and rotor are not treated here. So, standing and travelling waves will be briefly presented since the majority of the motors use another wave type to generate the stator vibrati...

The present paper approaches the comparative design and analysis of 5 SRM topologies for an EPAS application. Different number of phases and different combination of stator and rotor pole number will be considered, keeping the same main dimensions (outer and inner stator diameter, airgap length, stack length, stator pole height, stator yoke width, rotor pole height) and the same winding per pha...

Contact problems between stator and rotor (slider) are not treated here. So, standing and travelling waves will be briefly presented since the majority of the motors use another wave type to generate the stato...
