In this paper, design and performance analysis of robust and inexpensive permanent magnet-assisted synchronous reluctance generators (PMa-SynRG) for tactical and commercial generator sets is studied. More specifically, the optimal design approach is investigated for minimizing volume and maximizing performance for the portable generator. In order to find optimized PMa-SynRG, stator winding configurations and rotor structures are analyzed using the lumped parameter model (LPM). After comparisons of stator windings and rotor structure by LPM, the selected stator winding and rotor structure are optimized using a differential evolution strategy (DES). Finally, output performances are verified by finite element analysis (FEA) and experimental tests. This design process is developed for the optimized design of PMa-SynRG to achieve minimum magnet and machine volume as well as maximum efficiency simultaneously.

본 논문에서는 단상 유도전동기의 구속운전조건에서 화재 위험성에 관하여 기술하였다. 일반적으로 전동기의 고장 발생은 회전자의 회전 불량 등으로 인한 구속운전조건의 형태로 나타난다. 전동기의 기동 시에는 정격전류의 약 2~15배에 달하는 큰 돌입전류가 흐르게 되는데 단상 유도전동기에서 구속운전조건이 발생하게 되면 돌입전류에 준하는 전류가 지속적으로 고정자권선을 통해 흐르게 된다. 구속운전조건에서 고정자권선을 통해 흐르는 과전류에 의해 고정자 권선 내부의 온도가 상승하고, 최종적으로 절연물을 매개로 화재로 이어지는 특징이 나타난다. 본 논문에서는 임의로 구속운전조건을 만들고, 이때 고정자권선에 흐르는 과전류의 크기 및 온도 상승을 측정하였다. 실험결과로부터 구속운전조건에서는 정격전류에 비해 약 7배의 과전류가 발생하였으며, 고정자권선 내부의 온도가 약 300 ℃ 정도에서 화재로 진전되는 것을 확인하였다.

In this paper, torque characteristics analysis of Synchronous Reluctance Motor with the cylindrical rotor type by winding function theory(WFT) is described. The stator is same as one of the induction motor. From the d-axis, q-axis flux density distribution, to calculate self and mutual inductances needed to calculate the torque of the machine by using winding function theory the new equivalent geometry of rotor was proposed. D-axis, q-axis flux densities, self inductance and torque characteristics were obtained. From the comparison with results of finite element analysis the proposed method was verified.

On-line diagnosis system has been developed and is now applied the detection of shorted turns in the field winding of large generator. This system consists of data aquisition system and display PC. The data aquisition system detects voltage waveforms from flux probe sensor installed in the stator slot. The display PC shows theshorted-turn situation of generator rotor winding. A shorted-turn diagnosis test wasperformed on five gas turbine generators at the Seoinchon combined cycle power plant. The test was conducted using an new diagnosis system and digital oscilloscope which can identify the pole location, the slot number and the number of shorted turns within each slot. It is confirmed that results of two systems are very same in the field tests.

In this paper, a method for detecting broken rotor bar and stator winding fault in a low voltage squirrel-case induction motor using an air-gap flux variation analysis is proposed to develop a simple and low cost diagnosis technique. To measure the leakage flux in radial direction, a radial flux sensor is designed as a search coil and installed between stator slots. The proposed method is able to identify two kinds of motor faults by calculating load condition of motors and monitoring abnormal signals those are related with motor faults. Experimental results obtained on 7.5kW three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors are discussed to verify the performance of the proposed method.

This paper describes the methods for the detection of shorted-turn in the rotor of a cylindrical synchronous generator. A search coil is installed in the air-gap to detect the shorted-turn. The occurrence of a fault in the rotor winding results in a decrease of the induced voltages in the stator. And the magnitude of the rotor flux can be estimated by using the search coil and the estimated stator voltages respectively. And the magnitude of the estimated rotor flux is used for discriminating the rotor windings short or not by detecting the magnitude of the rotor flux. The method using a search coil located in the air-gap can detect not only the occurrence of a turn fault but also its position in the rotor winding. But the method using the estimated stator voltages gives the magnitude of the rotor flux, and only the number of a short-turn.

This paper proposes a grid-connected to rotor type doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) in which the rotor winding is connected to the grid instead of the stator winding. The stator size and weight of the proposed grid-connected to rotor type DFIG can be reduced because the proposed type can use rotor core more efficiently compared to the stator type DFIG. In order to verify the size and weight reduction of the proposed type, the loading distribution method (LDM) is utilized. As a design result, the stator outer diameter and weight of the proposed type were decreased. The equivalent circuit analysis and finite element method also performed to verify the design results and to analyze characteristics of the novel DFIG.

A conventional packing ring was designed with a large clearance to prevent damage due to the vibration of the rotor, which can lead to an increase in steam leakage. In this study, a flexible packing ring using winding springs was developed to prevent damage to the rotor teeth by minimizing vibration, while maintaining a smaller clearance than that of conventional rotor designs. Theoretical analysis and finite element analysis (FEA) were used to design the winding spring to satisfy the specified allowable stress limit and minimum load requirements. The shape of the winding spring was designed by applying curves to the center and end parts of a flat spring. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis was used to predict the leakage of the flexible packing ring. Flow rate measurement tests were performed to verify the leakage reduction efficiency and the reliability of the CFD analysis.

This paper deals with the problem of detection of induction motor incipient faults. Artificial Neural Network (ANN) approach is applied to detect two types of incipient faults (1). Interturn insulation and (2) Bearing wear faults in single-phase induction motor. The experimental data for five measurable parameters (motor intake current, rotor speed, winding temperature, bearing temperature and the noise) is generated in the laboratory on specially designed single-phase induction motor. Initially, the performance is tested with two inputs i.e. motor intake current and rotor speed, later the remaining three input parameters (winding temperature, bearing temperature and the noise) were added sequentially. Depending upon input parameters, the four ANN based fault detectors are developed. The training and testing results of these detectors are illustrated. It is found that the fault detection accuracy is improved with the addition of input parameters.
