In this paper, the noise of electric motors is analyzed in order to obtain information for the detection of faults. Significant noise spectrum differences between healthy motor and motors with different faults are observed. The faults analyzed are bad bearing in the three phase induction motor and broken bars in single phase induction motor. The high-frequency spectral analysis of noise provide...

Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) are driven by two energy convertors, i.e., an Internal Combustion (IC) engine and an electric machine. To make powertrain of HEV as efficient as possible, proper management of the energy elements is essential. This task is completed by HEV controller, which splits power between the IC engine and Electric Motor (EM). In this paper, a Genetic-Fuzzy control strategy...

In order to realize the intelligent diagnosis of the electric pump and the motor working condition during the operation period of the electric pump well, an expert system based on fault tree and rete algorithm is realized. Through the analysis on the fault characteristics of the electric pump well, established the fault tree and knowledge base that support electric pump and motor working condit...

A novel structure of switched reluctance motors (SRMs) is proposed. The proposed structure uses the benefits of the axial flux path, short flux path, segmental rotor, and flux reversal free stator motors all together to improve the torque density of the SRMs. The main geometrical, electrical and physical specifications are presented. In addition, some features of the proposed structure are comp...

This paper aims to find the efficient state of hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) by simultaneous optimization of the control strategy and the power train. The power transmission employed in this vehicle is a power-split continuously variable transmission (CVT) which uses several fixed ratio mechanisms. After describing this transmission, the rules of electric assist control strategy are introduced....

Electric machine is one of key parts in hybrid electric vehicles which affect dynamical and fuel consumption features and is the kernel to realize all kinds of strategy. Induction motor, PM synchronous motor, brushless DC motor, and switched reluctance motor are all applied in HEV. Traction motors for HEV are different from motors applied in industry. Load changes frequently and widely. Charact...

The paper presents a number of advanced solutions on electric machines and machine-based systems for the powertrain of electric vehicles (EVs). Two types of systems are considered, namely the drive systems designated to the EV propulsion and the power split devices utilized in the popular series-parallel hybrid electric vehicle architecture. After reviewing the main requirements for the electri...

Digitalisation is seen to have contributed the demise of 50% Fortune 500 companies since 2000. The large electric motor segment not immune this changing business landscape and must evolve survive. This sector experiencing declining revenues as traditional hardware-sales-focused models proved inadequate address a reduction in profitability. New that exploit new digital value streams are leverage...

In this paper active suspension with linear electric motor has been designed. The active suspension is often hardly rejected for its big energy consumption. This contribution deals with direct real-time energy control in suspension system. The linear electric motor is used as an actuator. This motor can in specific situation generate the energy for next use. The H-infinity controller has been d...
