Electrical machines are wide spread because of their intrinsic robustness, versatility and reduced impact on energy and resources. Recently, the demand has focused on specific features: compatibility with power converters and fault tolerance. In fact, a wide range of applications require variable speed drives and high rejection of faults, i.e. safe operation also for non-critical applications. Here, a dual three-phase stator configuration is used, and a novel method for stator fault detection is presented. This method is based on reactive power measurements from both three-phase systems. A differential diagnostic index is defined, that can be used to detect effectively stator faults, isolating them from torque oscillations, load unbalances or other pitfalls.

Abstract
Electrical machines are wide spread because of their intrinsic robustness, versatility and reduced impact on energy and resources. Recently, the demand has focused on specific features: compatibility with power converters and fault tolerance. In fact, a wide range of applications require variable speed drives and high rejection of faults, i.e. safe operation also for non-critical applications. Here, a dual three-phase stator configuration is used, and a novel method for stator fault detection is presented. This method is based on reactive power measurements from both three-phase systems. A differential diagnostic index is defined, that can be used to detect effectively stator faults, isolating them from torque oscillations, load unbalances or other pitfalls.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
