Abstract

An induction machine is a highly non-linear system that poses a great challenge because of its fault diagnosis due to the processing of large and complex data. The fault in an induction machine can lead to excessive downtimes that can lead to huge losses in terms of maintenance and production. This paper discusses the diagnosis of stator winding faults, which is one of the common faults in an induction machine. Several diagnostics techniques have been presented in the literature. Fault detection using traditional analytical methods are not always possible as this requires prior knowledge of the exact motor model. The motor models are also susceptible to inaccuracy due to parameter variations. This paper presents Adaptive Neuro-fuzzy Inference system (ANFIS) based fault diagnosis of induction motors. The distinction between the stator winding fault and supply unbalance is addressed in this paper. Experimental data is collected by shorting the turns of a health motor as well as creating unbalance in the stator voltage. The data is processed and fed to an ANFIS classifier that accurately identifies the faulted condition and unbalanced supply voltage conditions. The ANFIS provides almost 99% accurate and computationally efficient output in diagnosing the faults and unbalance conditions.DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/ijece.v3i1.1854

Abstract

Multiphase machines have gained attention in numerous fields of pplications such as Aircraft, ship propulsion, petrochemical and automobiles, where high reliability is required. The additional number of phases guarantees that the system continues to operate in faulty conditions compared to the traditional three-phase machine due to the high degree of freedom. Among faults able to affect multiphase system, break between a machine phase and the voltage source inverter (VSI) degrade the performance of the control. In this paper, a five-phase permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) is fed through a fault tolerant voltage source inverter with new structure to ensure drive continuity when open circuit occurs. The five phase PMSM is controlled with fuzzy logic regulator to minimize disturbance impact that can arise fault condition. Paper is accomplished with real time simulations using MATLAB-Simulink in order to validate the new topology and show the effectiveness of the proposed solution.
