There are various causes for noise production in induction motors, and among them, the noise generated by magnetic vibrating distribution forces have an important meanings. In this paper, the magnetic vibrating distribution forces in squirrelcage induction motors were arranged systematically in the consideration of stator harmonics and it's forces were not considered the effection of airgap eccentricity and deformation. With the application of the finite element method in order to find magnetic flux density and with the calculation of the permeance of rotor node, the magnetic vibrating distribution forces were analyzed.

This paper describes the effects of air gap eccentricity in induction machines. Asymmetric electro-magnetic force caused by the frictional worn bearing, rotor misalignment and unbalanced rotor etc. generates an asymmetrical operation, vibration and electro-magnetic noise. In this paper, we focus on investigating the asymmetrical operation considering of unbalanced magnetic force in squirrel-cage induction motor with 380 [V], 7.5 [kW], 4P, 1,768 [rpm]. The effects of the rotor eccentricity, magnetic force are investigated by finite element method (FEM) and experiment. The results can be useful for on-line monitoring of an induction motor.

This paper describes the effects of rotor-bar broken in induction machines. The analysis has been made on 7.5kW, 4P, 1,768[rpm], three-phase induction motors in a healthy and broken-rotor bars fault conditions at rated loading conditions. The effects of the rotor-bar broken, magnetic force are investigated by finite element method (FEM) and experiment. The results can be useful for real-time on-line monitoring of an induction motor.

This paper represents the comparison of harmonic loss characteristics of the inverter-driven 3-phase squirrel cage induction motor with slit and U-iron bridge slots of rotor. Two-dimensional time-stepped finite element method is used for electromagenetic field analysis. And spectrums of bar current, phase current, and torque are compared in each case.

This paper propose a improved parameter estimations of five-phase squirrel-cage induction motor(IM) for speed control system on field oriented control(FOC). In order to high performance control of ac the motors using a FOC and DTC(direct torque control) algorithm, there are required precise motor parameters for slip calculation, flux observer, controller gain, rotor position and speed estimation, and so on. We are suggest a estimation method of the motor parameters that developing five-phase squirrel-cage IM have a stator of concentrated winding for experimental. There are results of stator winding test, no-load test, locked rotor test, and obtained equivalent circuits using manufactured experimental apparatus. For presenting the superior performance of the speed control system in adapted the parameters, experimental results are presented using a 32-bit fixed point TMS320F2812 DSP with 1.5[KW] IM.

This paper proposes an alternative vibration detection method in a squirrel-cage induction motor using flux sensors. The air-gap flux will be changed when mechanical vibration occurs by bearing fault as well as broken rotor bar and air-gap eccentricity. For detecting those flux variations due to vibration, search coils are installed at stator slots. The induction motor with 380 [V], 7.5 [kW], 4 [Poles], 1,760 [rpm] ratings is used. Magnitudes and distortion of the induced voltage from flux sensors are used to discriminate faulted types. As a result, the flux sensor has been proven to be useful for vibration detection. It is compared to the result with vibration sensor as well.

This paper proposes a calculating method of resistance and inductance of end ring of squirrel cage induction motor for 2D finite element analysis. The squirrel cage of induction motor consists of bars and end rings. The resistance and inductance of end ring have an effect on the result of the finite element calaculation. If the end ring were excluded from the analysis, the good result could not be obtained. Therefore, we first simulate an axisymmetric magnetodynamic analysis for the end ring, and then calculate the interbar resistance and the end ring inductance. The calculated values are put into the external circuit of 2D finite element model of the induction motor. The proposed method is verified by comparing the numerical results with the experimental ones.

This paper presents a position control system for a linear induction motor(LIM) with cage-type secondary using direct thrust control(DTC). Also it presents a virtual instrumentation(VI) system for LIMs performance monitoring. The VI is designed using the graphical programming language LabVIEW and is capable of performing measurement functions, including data acquisition, display, and analyses at the same time. This paper reports the LIM's responses of the thrust, current, speed, and flux measured by the proposed monitoring system.

The squirrel cage rotors for induction motors may have several faults such as broken bars, bad spots in end ring, abnormal skew caused by improper processing. These faults have bad effect on the performance of the induction motor. This paper proposes the detecting technique of these faults by analyzing the current of the detecting electric magnet, using 2-D finite element method taking account of the rotor movement.
