Speed estimation for induction motor using neural networks method

This work presents an alternative approach based on neural network method in order to estimate speed of induction motors, using the measurement of primary variables such as voltage and current. Induction motors are very common in many sectors of the industry and assume an important role in the national energy policy. The nowadays methodologies, which are used in diagnosis, condition monitoring and dimensioning of these motors, are based on measure of the speed variable. However, the direct measure of this variable compromises the system control and starting circuit of an electric machinery, reducing its robustness and increasing the implementation costs. Simulation results and experimental data are presented to validate the proposed approach. © 2003-2012 IEEE.

Power Electronics Didactic Modules for Direct Current Machine Control

Several didactic modules for an electric machinery laboratory are presented. The modules are dedicated for DC machinery control and get their characteristic curves. The didactic modules have a front panel with power and signal connectors and can be configurable for any DC motor type. The three-phase bridge inverter proposed is one of the most popular topologies and is commercially available in power package modules. The control techniques and power drives were designed to satisfy static and dynamic performance of DC machines. Each power section is internally self-protected against misconnections and short-circuits. Isolated output signals of current and voltage measurements are also provided, adding versatility for use either in didactic or research applications. The implementation of such modules allowed experimental confirmation of the expected performance.

Diagnóstico de máquinas elétricas pela análise de vibração

O diagnóstico de máquinas elétricas pela análise de vibração é utilizado num plano de manutenção, onde é dado a conhecer a “real condição do equipamento”, e surgiu da necessidade de detetar vibrações indesejáveis nas máquinas elétricas, de uma forma simples e com custos acessíveis. Numa fase inicial é obtido um sinal correspondente á vibração da máquina, recorrendo a um acelerômetro, que dependendo da aceleração da máquina, constrói uma forma de onda correspondente. A forma de onda fica guardada em formato de áudio *.wav. Posteriormente, em software Matlab o ficheiro *.wav irá ser carregado, e comparado com o ficheiro *.wav original da máquina. Ao comparar os ficheiros o software analisa o espectro original da máquina através da transformada de Fourier, com o espectro atual. Se este espectro sair do intervalo de segurança, o software deteta nesse espectro a origem da vibração, pois cada vibração tem uma frequência associada. Percorridos os passos descritos, o software disponibiliza ao utilizador as respetivas formas de onda e todo o restante diagnóstico de forma a uma possível intervenção antecipada da avaria.

Pyörivien sähkökoneiden kotelointia koskevat standardit ja aksiaalivuokoneen jäähdytyksen kehittäminen

Tämä diplomityö on osa Lappeenrannan teknillisen yliopiston ja Visedo Oy:n yhteistyöprojektia. Työssä selvitetään pyörivien sähkökoneiden kotelointeja koskevia standardeja ja niiden vaikutukset koneiden suunnittelulle ja valmistukselle. Lisäksi työssä käsitellään aksiaalivuokoneen jäähdytykseen liittyviä ongelmia, kehitetään koneen nykyisiä jäähdytysratkaisuja ja ideoidaan käytettävissä olevia uusia jäähdytysmenetelmiä. Kehitysideoiden rajoitteena toimii koneelta vaadittu kotelointiluokka IP 64 – IP 68 sekä koneelle määritetty kestomagnetoitu aksiaalivuorakenne. Sähkökoneiden kotelointeja koskevien standardien asettamien vaatimusten määrittäminen tapahtui suurilta osin kirjallisuusselvityksenä. Standardien vaikutukset koneiden suunnittelulle ja valmistettavuudelle on selvitetty standardien kotelointien rakenteelle asettamien vaatimusten perusteella. Aksiaalivuokoneen jäähdytysongelmien selvittäminen, käytössä olevien jääh-dytysratkaisujen kehittäminen ja uusien menetelmien ideointi suoritettiin projektiluontoisesti yhdessä eri alojen asiantuntijoista koostuvan jäähdytystyöryhmän kanssa. Työn tuloksena laadittiin Visedo Oy:lle standardikäsikirja, jonka avulla Visedon sähkökoneiden tuoteperheeseen kuuluvien koneiden suunnitteluvaiheessa voidaan varmistaa koneiden standardienmukaisuus. Käsikirjassa on myös esitetty huomioita eri kotelointiluokkien asettamista vaatimuksista koneiden valmistukselle. Aksiaalivuokoneiden jäähdytykseen liittyen tavoitteena oli ratkaista aksiaalivuokoneisiin liittyviä jäähdytysongelmia. Työn tuloksena saa-tiin selville aksiaalivuokoneissa jäähdytyksen kehittämistä vaativat kohteet, laadittiin nykyisten jäähdytysratkaisujen parannusehdotuksia ja kehitettiin täysin uusia jäähdytysmenetelmiä.

A structure excited by a DC motor of limited power supply and controlled by a pendulum like device

In this paper, a mathematical model is derived via Lagrange's Equation for a shear building structure that acts as a foundation of a non-ideal direct current electric motor, controlled by a mass loose inside a circular carving. Non-ideal sources of vibrations of structures are those whose characteristics are coupled to the motion of the structure, not being a function of time only as in the ideal case. Thus, in this case, an additional equation of motion is written, related to the motor rotation, coupled to the equation describing the horizontal motion of the shear building. This kind of problem can lead to the so-called Sommerfeld effect: steady state frequencies of the motor will usually increase as more power (voltage) is given to it in a step-by-step fashion. When a resonance condition with the structure is reached, the better part of this energy is consumed to generate large amplitude vibrations of the foundation without sensible change of the motor frequency as before. If additional increase steps in voltage are made, one may reach a situation where the rotor will jump to higher rotation regimes, no steady states being stable in between. As a device of passive control of both large amplitude vibrations and the Sommerfeld effect, a scheme is proposed using a point mass free to bounce back and forth inside a circular carving in the suspended mass of the structure. Numerical simulations of the model are also presented Copyright © 2007 by ASME.
