In this paper, we present a novel technique to estimate the position of the rotor of a switched reluctance motor by observing the characteristics of the vibration of the stator during the motor operation. This removes the need of the shaft position sensor which is known for its unreliability and problems associated with its application. Vibration in switched reluctance motors is generated mainl...

This document presents a method of on-line fault diagnosis for iron core of induction motor stator based on adaptive observer. Due to the equivalent resistance is directly affected by the stator core fault, while the iron loss is considered in the series iron loss model of the induction motor, so we can determine the core fault state by identifying equivalent iron consumption resistance. In thi...

A dual stator winding squirrel-cage induction motor (DSWIM) is a brushless single-frame induction motor that contains a stator with two isolated three-phase windings wound with dissimilar numbers of poles. Each stator winding is fed by an independent three-phase inverter. The appropriate efficiency of this motor is obtained when the ratio of two frequencies feeding the machine is equal to the r...

Abstract– For induction motor drives controlled by the indirect rotor flux oriented control (IRFOC), the rotor resistance variation results in an undesirable coupling between the flux and the torque of the machine, and loss of dynamic performance. This paper presents a scheme for the estimation of rotor resistance using a neural networks (NN) block. In this system the flux and torque have been ...

The problem of controlling the π-model induction motor with magnetic saturation is considered in this paper. The motor parameters such that stator resistance Rs, rotor resistance Rr and load torque TL can be varied during the operation, many techniques are used for online identification of the motor parameters. In this paper, the authors use a new technique which is the Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inf...

In this work we present the modelling of the induction machine, taking into consideration the stator defects of the induction machine. It is based on the theory of electromagnetic coupling of electrical circuits. In fact, for the modelling of stationary defects such as short circuit between turns in the same phase, we introduce only in the matrix the coefficients of resistance and inductance of...

In this paper, we show that the association of the PI regulators for the speed and stator currents with a control strategy using the linearization by state feedback for an induction machine without speed sensor, and with an adaptation of the rotor resistance. The rotor speed is estimated by using the model reference adaptive system approach (MRAS). This method consists of using two models: The ...
