Cage Induction Motor

In this paper, a suitable method for the on-line detection of the airgap mixed eccentricity fault in a three-phase cage induction motor has been proposed. The method is based on a Motor Current Signature Analysis (MCSA) approach, a technique that is often used for an induction motor condition monitoring and fault diagnosis. It is based on the spectral analysis of the stator line current signal and the frequency identification of specific components, which are created as a result of motor faults. The most commonly used method for the current signal spectral analysis is based on the Fast Fourier transform (FFT). However, due to the complexity and memory demands, the FFT algorithm is not always suitable for real-time systems. Instead of the whole spectrum analysis, this paper suggests only the spectral analysis on the expected airgap fault frequencies employing the Goertzel?s algorithm to predict the magnitude of these frequency components. The method is simple and can be implemented in real-time airgap mixed eccentricity monitoring systems without much computational effort. A low-cost data acquisition system, supported by the LabView software, has been used for the hardware and software implementation of the proposed method. The method has been validated by the laboratory experiments on both the line-connected and the inverter-fed three-phase fourpole cage induction motor operated at the rated frequency and under constant load at a few different values. In addition, the results of the proposed method have been verified through the motor?s vibration signal analysis.

In this paper, a new design of a real-time low-cost speed monitoring and closed-loop control of the three-phase induction motor (IM) is proposed. The proposed solution is based on a voltage/frequency (V/F) control approach and a PI antiwindup regulator. It uses the Waijung Blockset which considerably alleviates the heaviness and the difficulty of the microcontroller’s programming task incessantly crucial for the implementation and the management of such complex applications. Indeed, it automatically generates C codes for many types of microcontrollers like the STM32F4 family, also used in this application. Furthermore, it offers a cost-effective design reducing the system components and increasing its efficiency. To prove the efficiency of the suggested design, not only simulation results are carried out for a wide range of variations in load and reference speed but also experimental assessment. The real-time closed-loop control performances are proved using the aMG SQLite Data Server via the UART port board, whereas Waijung WebPage Designer (W2D) is used for the web monitoring task. Experimental results prove the accuracy and robustness of the proposed solution.

The Impact

Although a three–phase squirrel cage induction motor is known by its qualities of robustness and low cost of construction. However, this machine can be affected by potential defects that affect the production, safety, quality of service and profitability of installations. However, to show the behavior of induction motor in different operating modes, the studying of this machine is very important. This paper presented the results of an experimental investigation to see the impact of the open phase fault on the thermal behavior in the 2.2 kW three phase squirrel cage induction motor, and to display the stator current waveforms with healthy and faulty conditions under different loads.

The Cost

A low cost and reliable protection scheme has been designed for a three phase induction motor against unbalance voltages, under voltage, over voltage, short circuit and overheating protection. Taking the cost factor into consideration the design has been proposed using microcontroller Atmega32, MOSFETs, relays, small CTs and PTs. However the sensitivity of the protection scheme has been not compromised. The design has been tested online in the laboratory for small motors and the same can be implemented for larger motors by replacing the i-v converters and relays of suitable ratings.

Simulation Time

This paper presents a hybrid finite element method (FEM)–analytical model of a three-phase squirrel cage induction motor solved using parallel processing for reducing the simulation time. The growing development in artificial intelligence (AI) techniques can lead towards more reliable diagnostic algorithms. The biggest challenge for AI techniques is that they need a big amount of data under various conditions to train them. These data are difficult to obtain from the industries because they contain low numbers of possible faulty cases, as well as from laboratories because a limited number of motors can be broken for testing purposes. The only feasible solution is mathematical models, which in the long run can become part of advanced diagnostic techniques. The benefits of analytical and FEM models for their speed and accuracy respectively can be exploited by making a hybrid model. Moreover, the concept of cloud computing can be utilized to reduce the simulation time of the FEM model. In this paper, a hybrid model being solved on multiple processors in a parallel fashion is presented. The results depict that by dividing the rotor steps among several processors working in parallel, the simulation time reduces considerably. The simulation results under healthy and broken rotor bar cases are compared with those taken from a laboratory setup for validation.
