Abstract: This paper presents a new technique to diagnose broken rotor bars in squirrel cage induction machines. The technique is based on the analysis of the current space vector during motor starting via Short- Time MUSIC (STMUSIC) pseudo-spectrum. Differently from most of the diagnostic techniques already proposed in the technical literature, the approach presented in this work is effective regardless the load condition of the machine. Both STFFT and STMUSIC have been used to process the motor current space-vector. The latter approach, that is based on the eigen-analysis of the autocorrelation matrix, permits to keep only the principal frequency components of the signal and to decrease the noise influence, thus allowing a better interpretation of the current spectrum and an automatic fault detection procedure.

Abstract: The paper deals with rotor fault diagnosis problems of the induction motor using different Artificial Intelligence methods like: neural networks, fuzzy-logic and combined neuro-fuzzy methods. Rotor fault detectors based on these methods were developed. All detectors were trained and tested using measurement data of stator current spectra. The digital signal processor was used for practical realisation of AI-based fault detectors. All detectors were tested in off-line as well as on-line operation. The efficiency of developed neural detectors was evaluated.
