dc.descriptionThis study specifically focuses on analyzing the stator current signals of a squirrel cage induction machine to detect and diagnose broken rotor bar faults under different load conditions. The research employs a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) model, a type of artificial neural network known for its ability to learn complex patterns, to study the impact of varying operational loads on fault detection accuracy.
dc.description.abstracteffectiveness, robustness, and high efficiency. However, as with all electrical machines, they are prone to degradation over time, necessitating expensive repairs and maintenance. Detecting faults early is critical to minimizing unplanned downtime and reducing operational costs. One significant fault that can significantly impact the performance of induction machines is broken rotor bars. Broken rotor bars can lead to various undesirable effects, including increased vibration, reduced efficiency, and potential catastrophic failure if left undetected. Motor current signature analysis (MCSA) is a widely adopted technique for monitoring the condition of induction machines during normal operation. By analyzing the frequency spectrum of the stator current, MCSA provides valuable insights into the health of the machine and can detect anomalies indicative of broken rotor bars. This study specifically focuses on analyzing the stator current signals of a squirrel cage induction machine to detect and diagnose broken rotor bar faults under different load conditions. The research employs a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) model, a type of artificial neural network known for its ability to learn complex patterns, to study the impact of varying operational loads on fault detection accuracy.
