  • In this study, normal wind load and blast wind load are modeled mathematical. And the periodical torque and bending moments transmitted to the main shaft of wind turbine are investigated. A normal wind model assumed, of which the wind velocity is increased according to the height from ground. The average values and the harmonic terms of the transmitted moments are studied on the wind direction of range $-45^{\circ}{\sim}45^{\circ}$ and the bending moment characteristics are examined, which is regarded as the main source of the misalignment of gear train. In normal wind load case, excitation frequency is 3X (X : Rotor speed). When the wind direction is $+22.5^{\circ}$, the horizontal axis of bending moment occur the 50% of main torque. This result leads to edge contact of gear teeth by shaft elastic deformation. In blast wind load case, excitation frequency are 3X,6X,9X. Additional, in the (+) direction of wind load, relative harmonic percentage is increase.

  • 산업화와 더불어 자동화의 요구에 따라 여러 분야에서 유도전동기의 응용 사례가 늘어나고 있다. 본 연구는 인버터단의 전류센서에서 실시간 얻어진 전류신호로 부터 대표적인 전기, 기계적인 4가지 고장(Bearing Fault, Broken Rotor bar, Misalignment, Unbalance)을 검출하여 예기치 못한 고장에 대비할 수 있는 실시간 진단 알고리듬을 제시한다. 실시간 진단의 핵심요소인 동기화 방법으로서 Hilbert Transform을 응용하였다. 총 40세트의 정상 모터 데이터를 임의로 선택하여 두 데이터의 차를 이용하여 0에 근사한 정상 모터 뎀플릿 값을 설정하였다. 이를 이용하여 진단 대상 전동기의 고장 유무를 미리 판단하게 된다. 만약 기준치 이상의 오차가 나타나게 되면, 이와 비교하기 위한 미리 수집된 각4가지 고장 전동기의 미소신호 템플릿 데이터와의 유사성을 비교하여 고장의 종류를 표시하며, 고장의 종류가 진단되지 않은 대상은 고장 유무만 표시된다.

  • Induction motors are the most commonly used electrical drives because they are rugged, mechanically simple, adaptable to widely different operating conditions, and simple to control. The most common faults in squirrel-cage induction motors are bearing, stator and rotor faults. Surveys conducted by the IEEE and EPRI show that the most common fault in induction motor is bearing failure (${\sim}$40% of failure). Thence, this paper addresses experimental results for diagnosing faults with different rolling element bearing damage via motor current spectral analysis. Rolling element bearings generally consist of two rings, an inner and outer, between which a set of balls or rollers rotate in raceways. We set the experimental test bed to detect the rolling-element bearing misalignment of 3 type induction motors with normal condition bearing system, shaft deflection system by external force and a hole drilled through the outer race of the shaft end bearing of the four pole test motor. This paper takes the initial step of investigating the efficacy of current monitoring for bearing fault detection by incipient bearing failure. The failure modes are reviewed and the characteristics of bearing frequency associated with the physical construction of the bearings are defined. The effects on the stator current spectrum are described and related frequencies are also determined. This is an important result in the formulation of a fault detection scheme that monitors the stator currents. We utilized the FFT, Wavelet analysis and averaging signal pattern by inner product tool to analyze stator current components. The test results clearly illustrate that the stator signature can be used to identify the presence of a bearing fault.
