This paper studies on the noise reduction for a small automobile DC Motor (a window motor) using the 6 sigma process. The application of 6 sigma process suggested reliable and valuable statistical data for the quality of the DC motor at the production line. In the measurement step in 6 sigma process. the FMEA(failure mode effect analysis) were used for the detection of noise sources. The application of 6 sigma Process gave not only the improving method for the quality of the DC motor but also the confidence of improvement Itself since it was done on the basis of the test results for a number of DC motors at the production line. Consequently the 6 sigma process was proved very effective for the noise reduction at the production line.

The motor current signature provides an important source of the information for the faults diagnosis of three-phase induction motor. The theoretical principles behind the generation of unique signal characteristics, which are indicative of failure mechanisms, are Presented. The fault detection techniques that can be used to diagnose mechanical Problems, stator and rotor winding failure mechanisms, and air-gap eccentricity are described. A theoretical analysis is presented which predicts the presence of unique signature patterns in the current that are only characteristics of the fault. The predictions are verified by experimental results from a special fault Producing test rig and on-site tests in a steel company. And this study have made new diagnostic algorithm for the operating induction motors with the test results. These developments are including the use of monitoring and analysis of electric current to diagnose mechanical and electrical problems and gave the precise test results automatically.

Combat vehicles require high levels of maneuverability, firepower, armor, and operability. A high-performance power system is required for optimal maneuverability. The fuel pump which supplies fuel stably is very important to achieve this. The fuel pump consists of a pump part, a motor part, and a control part. It is equipped with a BLDC motor. Numerous failures of the fuel pump occurred during vehicle operation when exposed to vibration, shock, and high temperature. The cause of failure was confirmed to be stator slip of the BLDC motor. Stator slip is a consequence of the interference loss between the stator and the housing of the motor part in an high temperature environment. The failure of the fuel pump was solved through size control of the motor housing and the stator. We performed vibration testing at high temperature for verification. This study contributes to improving the reliability of combat vehicles.

전동기 소손의 원인으로는 과부하, 결상, 구속, 층간단락, 권선의 지락, 순간과전압의 유입, 회전자가 고정자에 닿는 경우 등 절연파괴로 이어져 고장 또는 전기 사고로 이어지고 있다. 따라서 기기 고장은 기기의 보수/수리에 필요한 비용에 의한 손실뿐만 아니라, 전동기가 포함된 공정 자체를 멈추기 때문에 공정 정지에 따른 생산성 저하에 의한 막대한 경제적 손실을 초래한다. 전동기의 고장을 진단하기 위한 현재의 기술의 수준은 진동, 열, 전력분석 방식을 이용하고 있지만, 고장에 따른 상당 부분의 시간이 진행되어야 문제점을 분석할 수 있는 한계점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하고자 DC AMP 신호를 이용하여 절연저항을 측정하는 장치 및 알고리즘을 산업용 전동기에 적용하여 절연저항 상태값을 추종하여 기존방식에서 해결되지 못한 전동기의 열화 및 고장 진단을 제안한다.

A multi-phase brushless direct current (BLDC) motor is widely used in large-capacity electric propulsion systems such as submarines and electric ships. In particular, in the field of military submarines, the polyphaser motor must suppress torque ripple in various failure situations to reduce noise and ensure stable operation for a long time. In this paper, we propose a polyphaser current control method that can improve efficiency and reduce torque ripple by minimizing the increase in stator winding loss at maximum output torque by controlling the phase angle and amplitude of the steady-state current during open circuit failure of the stator winding. The proposed control method controls the magnitude and phase angle of the healthy phase current, excluding the faulty phase, to compensate for the torque ripple that occurs in the case of a phase open failure of the motor. The magnitude and phase angle of the controlled steady-state current are calculated for each phase so that copper loss increase is minimized. The proposed control method was verified using hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HILS) of a 12-phase BLDC motor. HILS verification confirmed that the increase in the loss of the stator winding and the magnitude of the torque ripple decreased compared with the open phase fault of the motor.

A new method for on-line induction motor fault detection is presented in this paper. This system utilizes unsupervised-learning clustering algorithm, the Dignet, proposed by Thomopoulos etc., to learn the spectral characteristics of a good motor operating on-line. After a sufficient training period, the Dignet signals one-phase ground fault, or a potential failure condition when a new cluster is formed and persists for some time. Since a fault condition is found by comparison to a prior condition of the machine, on-line failure prediction is possible with this system without requiring information on the motor of load characteristics.

A new fault-tolerant control topology for open-loop motor-drive systems with Delta-connected stator windings is introduced in this paper. This new control topology enables the operation of a three-phase induction machine as a two-phase machine fed by a three-phase inverter upon a failure in one of the motor phases. This topology utilizes the "open-Delta" configuration to independently control the current in each of the two remaining healthy phases. This new control technique leads to the alleviation of any torque pulsations resulting from the consequences of the asymmetrical conditions associated with this class of faults.

Participants in the Asia Pacific Conference of the Prognostics and Health Management Society 2017 (PHMAP 2017) Data Challenge were given measured vibration signals from motor-driven gearboxes used in pulverizers. Using this information, participants were requested to predict failure dates and the faulty components. The measured signals were affected by significant noise and disturbance, as the pulverizers in the provided data worked under actual operating conditions. This paper thus presents a fault prediction method for a motor-driven gearbox in a pulverizer system that can perform under external noise and disturbance conditions. First, two fault features, an RMS value in the higher frequency zones (HRMS) and an amplitude of a period for high-speed shaft in the quefrency domain ($QA_{HSS}$), were extracted based on frequency analysis using the higher and lower sampling rate data. The two features were then applied to each pulverizer based on results of frequency responses to impact loadings. Then, a regression analysis was used to predict the failure date using the two extracted features. A weighted regression analysis was used to compensate for the imbalance of the features in the given period. In addition, the faulty components in the motor-driven gearboxes were predicted based on the modulated frequency components. The score predicted by the proposed approach was ranked first in the PHMAP 2017 Data Challenge.
