Speed Estimation of Six-Phase Induction Motors, Using the Rotor Slot Harmonics.

ABSTRACT: Multiphase machines have recently been promoted as a viable alternative to traditional three-phase machines. Most experts are looking for strategies to estimate the rotation speed of such complex systems, since speed data are required for high-performance control purposes. Traditionally, electromechanical sensors were used to detect the rotor speed of electric motors. These devices are extremely accurate, but they are also delicate and costly to deploy. New speed estimating algorithms must be created for these situations. This paper looks at how to estimate rotor speed in symmetrical six-phase induction motors (IMs) using a novel strategy for rotor speed estimation based on the Short Time Fourier Transform (STFT) method. The technique is based on tracking the frequencies of the rotor slot harmonics (RSH) seen in most squirrel-cage IM stator currents, thus assuring a broad range of applications. To monitor the RSH, the STFT employs a sliding window to perform the discrete Fourier transform technique, making it more suitable for online use with noisy and nonstationary signals. Experimental tests demonstrate the effectiveness of the suggested approach.

Project description:Induction motors (IMs), as essential components in industrial operations, are subject to various operational abnormalities, such as voltage unbalance, harmonic distortions, under/over voltage supply, and ambient temperature variations. These factors necessitate the de-rating of torque to ensure motor reliability, efficiency, and safe operation within rated power loss limits. Traditional methods for estimating de-rated torque often involve complex and time-intensive calculations, creating challenges in real-time applications. To address these limitations, this manuscript introduces the Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) as a robust predictive tool for de-rated torque estimation under abnormal conditions. This study defines and quantifies main de-rating factors (Dfs), including voltage unbalance, harmonic distortions, and temperature rise, employing MATLAB/Simulink simulations for performance analysis. The proposed ANFIS controller integrates neural networks and fuzzy logic, enabling efficient evaluation of de-rated torque by dynamically adjusting to real-time operating conditions. Validation of the ANFIS predictions against Simulink outcomes highlights its reliability and accuracy, with minimal deviations observed. Results reveal the significant impact of DFs on induction motor (IM) performance. Voltage unbalance and harmonic distortions emerged as primary contributors to reduced torque output, while temperature rise exacerbates power losses and thermal stress on IM components. By mitigating the need for extensive calculations, ANFIS simplifies the process of assessing torque de-rating and ensures rapid, precise predictions. ANFIS controller is trained offline to assess the de-rated torque of the IM under different operating conditions. The results from this training have been validated against Simulink outcomes, confirming the reliability and accuracy of the ANFIS technique. This research advances the understanding of IM performance under non-ideal conditions, offering a practical framework for de-rating torque evaluation and management. The integration of ANFIS as a control mechanism not only optimizes motor efficiency but also extends operational longevity, underscoring its potential for real-world industrial applications.

Project description:The analysis of electrical impulse phenomena in cardiac muscle tissue is important for the diagnosis of heart rhythm disorders and other cardiac pathophysiology. Cardiac mapping techniques acquire local temporal measurements and combine them to visualize the spread of electrophysiological wave phenomena across the heart surface. However, low spatial resolution, sparse measurement locations, noise and other artifacts make it challenging to accurately visualize spatio-temporal activity. For instance, electro-anatomical catheter mapping is severely limited by the sparsity of the measurements, and optical mapping is prone to noise and motion artifacts. In the past, several approaches have been proposed to create more reliable maps from noisy or sparse mapping data. Here, we demonstrate that deep learning can be used to compute phase maps and detect phase singularities in optical mapping videos of ventricular fibrillation, as well as in very noisy, low-resolution and extremely sparse simulated data of reentrant wave chaos mimicking catheter mapping data. The self-supervised deep learning approach is fundamentally different from classical phase mapping techniques. Rather than encoding a phase signal from time-series data, a deep neural network instead learns to directly associate phase maps and the positions of phase singularities with short spatio-temporal sequences of electrical data. We tested several neural network architectures, based on a convolutional neural network (CNN) with an encoding and decoding structure, to predict phase maps or rotor core positions either directly or indirectly via the prediction of phase maps and a subsequent classical calculation of phase singularities. Predictions can be performed across different data, with models being trained on one species and then successfully applied to another, or being trained solely on simulated data and then applied to experimental data. Neural networks provide a promising alternative to conventional phase mapping and rotor core localization methods. Future uses may include the analysis of optical mapping studies in basic cardiovascular research, as well as the mapping of atrial fibrillation in the clinical setting.
