Frequency analysis based fault detection and isolation of induction motors

주파수 해석을 이용한 유도전동기의 고장 검출 및 분류

Recently, induction motors are used more widely because of their low cost and simple structure. Therefore, the importance of fault detection and isolation of induction motors significantly increases. In most case the line current is used for fault detection and isolation. But in case that an induction motor has an inverter for control, it distorts the information of faulty state included in the line current. This paper proposes a new method for fault detection and isolation of induction motors that is speed controlled by the inverter using frequency analysis of the reference current instead of the line current for fault detection and isolation.
