Rotor fault diagnosis techniques developed for induction machines (IMs) are classically based on current spectral analysis (CSA). For the case of rotor asymmetry in Wound-Rotor Induction Machine (WRIM), the magnitude of the negative sequence component at -sf of the rotor current space-vector is commonly monitored in order to quantify its contribution. Nevertheless, CSA still has some limitations....
This paper introduces a diagnostic technique for the detection of mixed Stator-Rotor electrical faults in Doubly Fed Induction Machine (DFIM) for wind power systems. Operating in aggressive environments, the detection of anomalies at an incipient stage is crucial to decide about the operating continuity of the machines. In this paper the behavior of DFIM is investigated under the assumption that the...
A speed control scheme is proposed for a 3-phase induction motor that uses an open-ended stator winding fed by a dual inverter system with a floating bridge. The floating bridge has a voltage boosting function that extends the constant power high-speed range of the induction machine and operates the main inverter bridge at unity power factor. The proposed control scheme coordinates the two inverters...
Nowadays Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) are an attractive alternative to induction machines for a variety of applications due to their higher efficiency, power density and wide constant power speed range. In this context the condition monitoring of magnets status is receiving more and more attention since is critical for industrial applications. This paper presents a characterization of...
Diagnostic techniques of electrical faults for induction machines are usually based on spectral analysis of stator currents. Hence large time acquisition period are mandatory in order to achieve high frequency resolution. Moreover, a sharp knowledge of supply frequency and slip are required in order to monitor the spectrum lines specifically linked to electrical faults. Several research activities...
The paper introduces an advanced monitoring and diagnosis system for the detection of incipient electrical faults in doubly fed induction generators (DFIGs) used in wind generator systems. In this application the rotor power is supplied by a converter for the control of active and reactive power flow from the generator to the mains. The paper deals with a new diagnostic method based on the analysis...
For modern large wind farms, it is more and more interesting to design an efficient diagnostics system oriented to wind turbine generators based on doubly-fed induction machine (DFIM). In this paper, a complete system will be analyzed by suitable simulations to deeply study fault influence and to identify the best diagnostic procedure to perform predictive maintenance. All the research efforts have...
Intensive research efforts have been focused on the signature analysis (SA) to detect electrical and mechanical faults of induction machines. Different signals can be used: voltage, current, flux and power. In the case of current signals (CSA), the interpretation of one-phase current spectrum or the three-phase current space vector spectrum provides direct information on the presence of abnormal conditions...
