DYNAMIC INVESTIGATION OF A PERMANENT MAGNET SYNCHRONOUS MOTOR FOR FAULTY OPERATIONS

Abstract

Industrial efficacy of electrical energy is an important feature for our daily life. To provide efficient and reliable operation, new types of electrical machines and their condition monitoring have gain importance. In this paper, a model based condition monitoring and fault evaluation application for permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) is presented. Possible fault conditions are realized on mathematical model and their results are discussed. In order to observe the dynamic behavior of PMSM, its mathematical model is implemented into MATLAB / Simulink as a reference. Then, faulty conditions are created by altering specific model parameters to imitate possible faults. The behavior of the motor is observed and compared with the reference output to contribute the dynamic effects of faulty operations.
