Abstract: A multipolar contact-free asynchronous generator is considered in which the primary and the secondary generation windings are arranged on the teeth of the stator, while the rotor is made tooth-like and without windings. Analytical treatment of such a generator has been performed and the basic equations have been obtained, which allow the parameters and performance of the machine to be calculated in generation mode of operation. The results of experimental investigations are presented for the physical model of the generator and comparison with the calculation data is given.

Abstract: Asynchronous machines take a large place in industrial applications. It is necessary to ensure a high quality of the process in the whole. So, many researches deal with the diagnosis of induction motors. One of the widespread methods is the monitoring of the stator current. This one is named MCSA (Motor Current Signature Analysis). This approach is based on the two sideband current components near the frequency fundamental line which appear in case of rotor bar defects. As an incipient rotor fault detection is often necessary in some sensitive processes, we propose, in this paper, an approach using the analysis of the line-neutral voltage. It implies a star connection of the electrical motor. We make a spectral analysis of this voltage in case of one partial bar or one whole broken bar. The induction motor operates under several loads. Results of simulations and experimentations prove the efficient use of this approach proposed. This one is quite relevant in regard of the MCSA method.

 
   Complete Current-Based Induction Motor Condition Monitoring: Stator, Rotor, And Overload Protection

Abstract: This paper presents a complete summary of techniques for monitoring and protecting each major component of a low voltage, induction motor. This includes both line connected and drive-supplied machines. Specifically, a method for protecting the machine from thermal overload is presented, along with a method for robust stator turn-fault detection. Current-based spectral analysis for rotor and rotating faults, as well as bearing faults is also presented. Each of these techniques are proved to provide condition- and fault-related information to the user without additional sensors.

 
   Detecting Rotor Faults In Inverter-Fed Induction Machines At Zero Load

Abstract: For quality management and safety critical applications, methods of rotor bar fault-detection are essential. The method proposed in this paper is based on a monitoring of the asymmetrical behavior of the rotor time constant. The rotor time constant depending on the magnetizing angular reference to the rotor coordinate system is estimated and observed. This is done by magnetizing and demagnetizing the machine in a rotor fixed direction, measuring the time constant and showing the modulation over one pole pitch. The resulting signal is the decisive factor for the expert system whether the rotor cage is defective or faultless.

 
   FDI Based On Two Stage Classifiers For Fault Diagnosis Of Valve Actuators. Application To DAMADICS Benchmark 
 By Arunas Lipnickas(lt), Jose Sa Da Costa(pt), Cosmin Danut Bocaniala(ro)

Abstract: This paper describes a two stage classifiers FDI system for fault diagnosis of industrial processes. The first stage classifier is used for the fault detection and the second one for fault isolation and identification. In order to reduce a number of false alarms the penalization factor in the training error cost function is introduced and also a methodology to calculate the final fault detection. To increase the reliability of the fault identification the probabilities of classification are averaged within the fault duration time. The performance of the proposed approach is demonstrated on the DAMADICS benchmark problem to detect the abrupt faults in the valve actuator block.

Abstract: Non-invasive fault diagnosis has the advantage that there is not need for the installation of additional sensors and is the preferred option for condition monitoring of induction machines. For this reason many techniques based on the monitoring of voltage and current have been developed for the diagnosis of stator faults in induction machines. This paper describes these diagnostic techniques.

Abstract: This paper is presents the stator winding fault detection. Stator failures are classified. Effect's of various stresses on the stator lifetime and how do causes contribute to stator failure are studied. A technique known as model-based diagnostic technique is used to study the behavior of the stator under abnormal conditions. The squirrel-cage induction motor is taken as a case study for practical verification. A neural-based diagnosis for the stator failures has been carried out.
