MONITORING AND FAULT DIAGNOSIS OF INDUCTION MOTORS EE7000-1

Motor Fault and Diagnosis Safety, • Reliability, Reliability, •  Efficiency, and •  Performance are some of the major concerns and needs for motor systems applications. •

For a successful motor operation the keys are: • Quality of the motor, • Understanding of the application, • Choice of the proper type of motor for application, and • Proper maintenance of the motor.

Induction Motor

Major faults of electrical machines: • Stator faults resulting in the opening or shorting of one or more of stator phase winding, •  Abnormal connection of the stator windings, • Broken rotor bar  or cracked rotor end-rings, • Static and or dynamic air-gap irregularities, • Bent shaft (akin to dynamic eccentricity) which can result in a rub between the rotor and stator, • Shorter rotor field winding, and • Bearing and gearbox failures

Symptoms produced for one or more of these faults: • Unbalanced air-gap voltages and lines currents, • Increases torque pulsations, • Decreased average torque, • Increased losses and reduction in efficiency, and

Excessive heating.

The diagnostic methods to identify these faults can be: • Electromagnetic field monitoring, search coils, coils wound around motor shafts, • Temperature measurements, • Infrared recognition, • Radio frequency (RF) emissions monitoring, • Noise and vibration monitoring, • Chemical analysis, •  Acoustic noise measurements, • Motor current signature analysis (MCSA),

Model, artificial intelligence and neural network

ON-LINE CONDITION MONITORING OF MOTORS USING ELECTRICAL SIGNATURE ANALYSIS

• Electrical signature analysis is the procedure of acquiring the motor current and voltage signals, performing signal conditioning and analyzing the derived signals to identify the various faults. •  A FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) analyzer is required for converting the signals from the time domain to the frequency domain.

 A motor current signal is ideally a perfect sinusoidal wave at 50 Hz. The amplitude of the peak in frequency is equal to RMS amplitude of

During actual operation, many harmonics will be present in the motor signal. This is know as the motor’s current signature. Analyzing these

Various types of Faults and Their Detection Techniques • Broken rotor bar and end ring faults. • Eccentricity related faults. • Bearing Faults. • Stator or Armature Faults.

BROKEN ROTOR BAR AND END RING FAULTS Rotor bar and end ring breakage can be caused by: • Thermal stresses due to thermal overload and unbalance, hot spots or excessive losses, • Magnetic stresses caused by electromagnetic forces, unbalanced magnetic pull, electromagnetic noise and vibration, • Residual stresses due to manufacturing problems, • Dynamic stresses arising from shaft torques, centrifugal forces and cyclic stresses, • Environmental stresses, • Mechanical stresses due to laminations, fatigued

ROTOR BAR DAMAGE

The difference in amplitude between the line frequency peak and the pole passing frequency sidebands is an indication of the rotor bar health. Empirical research has shown that a difference of over 60 dB indicates an excellent rotor

ECCENTRICITY RELATED FAULTS There are two types of air gap eccentricity: • The static air gap eccentricity, and • The dynamic air gap eccentricity.

In case of the static air-gap eccentricity, the position of the minimal radial air-gap length is fixed in space. In case of the dynamic air-gap eccentricity, the center of the rotor is not the center of rotation and the position of minimum air-gap rotates with

The sideband frequencies associated with an eccentricity are

STATIC ECCENTRICITY

Static eccentricity is the phenomenon of uneven stator-rotor air-gap, typically caused due to soft foot in the foundation, cocked bearing or an improperly adjusted air -

DYNAMIC ECCENTRICITY

Dynamic eccentricity is the phenomenon of a variable stator-rotor air-gap, typically caused due to worn out bearing housings or end covers. High peaks at the

FOUR TYPES OF ROLLING ELEMENT BEARING MISALIGNMENT

BEARING PROBLEMS

 All bearings have a set of unique defect frequencies. The presence of high peaks at these bearing defect frequencies can identify and pinpoint

STATOR OR ARMATURE FAULTS Stator insulation can fail due to several reasons: • High stator core or winding temperatures, • Slack core lamination, slot wedges and joints, • Loose bracing for end winding, • Contamination due to oil, moisture and dirt, • Short circuit or starting stresses, • Electrical discharges, • Leakage in cooling systems.

INTERTURN SHORTS

Interturn shorts lead to excessive heating in the stator coil and also current imbalance. The current spectrum can pick up interturn shorts as well as
