High voltage insulation is loosing its quality during the operation of high voltage machines and generators. Degrading high voltage stator insulation is the main reason for sudden breakdown of stator windings. Partial discharge measurements can reveal a lot of defects in stator windings of high voltage rotating machines with operating voltage more than 3,3kV. Partial discharge monitoring provid...

induction motors are the most commonly used in the traction industries and electric vehicles, due to their low primary cost, low maintenance costs, and good performance. speed identification is needed for the induction motor drives. however, using of speed sensors in the induction motor drives is associated with problems such as, extra cost, reduced reliability, added mounting space, etc.. ther...

With the use of sensorless control strategy, mechanical position sensors can be removed from gearbox, so as to decrease maintenance costs and enhance system robustness. In this paper, a switching PI based model reference adaptive (MRAS) observer using Fuzzy-Logic-Controller (FLC) is introduced for permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives. The main work innovation paper include: 1) A dis...

In renewable power generation doubly fed induction generators (DFIG) are used, in which the stator of the generator is directly connected to mains, while the converter for the rotor is rated only for slip power. Due to the interaction of rotor and stator windings in a DFIG, the high-frequency harmonics caused by the pulsed output of rotor power converters are transmitted into the stator current...

In this paper, a complementary and simplified scheme to diagnose electrical faults in three-phase induction motor using the parity equations approach during steady state operation bases on stator current reference frame is presented. The proposed allows us identify phase affected due related side, such as sensors, voltage resistance. results obtained work complement detection system that uses D...

The model for the stator-rotor interaction is discussed in the sections The stator-rotor interaction and The rotor switching dynamics of the main text. The model is based on the model Oster and Blair and coworkers [1, 2] and Meacci and Tu [3], but extended to include the conformational transitions of the rotor protein complex. Here, we discuss aspects of the model that are not discussed in the ...

Stator turn faults in permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs) are more dangerous than those in induction motors (IMs) because of the presence of spinning rotor magnets that can be turned off at will. Condition monitoring and fault detection and diagnosis of the PMSM have been receiving a growing amount of attention among scientists and engineers in the past few years. The aim of this study ...

This paper studies the effect of incipient stator faults in salient-pole synchronous generators and its detection using a simple pattern recognition methodology. A theoretical linear model for the synchronous generator is first developed to provide the relationships between stator and rotor harmonic currents and possible incipient faults on stator electric circuits. All theoretical findings wer...
