    摘要: Control of an induction motor is carried out to limit damaging arcing stress and mechanical stresses placed on the control contactor assembly and the induction motor resulting from the simultaneous or synchronous breaking and making of contactors employed to connect the windings of the motor to a power supply. Asynchronously connecting the windings to the power supply via the asynchronous or non-simultaneous closing of the contactors of a modular contactor assembly reduces the potentially damaging transient current, the associated torque oscillations, and mechanical stresses. The present invention is particularly applicable to delta motors that are started with its windings in a star or wye configuration followed by the reconnection of the windings in a delta configuration when the motor is at normal running speed.

    摘要: An electric motor is braked by sensing the polarity of voltage of the alternating electricity for powering the motor and sensing the polarity of the voltage induced in the motor by the back electromotive force. When these polarities are opposite the electricity is applied to the motor to generate a braking torque. The application of the electricity is stopped a given interval after it begins to be applied during consecutive voltage cycles. This interval is derived from the time period between when braking commenced to when the electricity was applied during consecutive cycle.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for detecting a stator winding fault in an induction motor includes sampling instantaneous signals from the motor and then deriving sequence components of at least some of the instantaneous signals using a power decomposition technique (PDT), one of the sequence components being a total negative sequence current component. In addition, the method includes calculating an expected negative sequence current based on at least some of the sequence components. Thereafter, the method subtracts the expected negative sequence current from the total negative sequence current to determine a fault negative sequence current, wherein the fault negative sequence current is indicative of the fault. More preferably, the method additionally includes calculating an intrinsic motor negative sequence current based on at least some of the sequence components, and subtracting the intrinsic motor negative sequence current from the fault negative sequence current generated as described above to determine a modified fault negative sequence current. Notably, the method and apparatus are capable of detecting faults that cause a modified fault negative sequence current as low as approximately 0.2% of the full load current.

    摘要: An electric motor is coupled to the power lines by thyristors. The motor is braked by triggering the thyristors at the proper times to produce a electro-magnetic field within the motor which opposes the residual magnetic field of the rotor. The proper time to trigger the thyristors is determined by comparing the polarity of the voltage across the power lines to the back emf voltage from the motor. The thyristors are triggered when these two voltages have opposite polarities. The braking circuit also regulates the duty cycle of the thyristors to control the magnitude of the current applied to brake the motor.

    摘要: A method for controlling the starting, stopping and operation of an AC motor is provided. Each winding of the AC motor is interconnected to an AC source by a thyristor switch and a bypass contactor for providing voltage and current to the AC motor. The method includes a steps of sequently firing a pair of tyristor switches to bring the AC motor to full operating speed. Once at operating speed, the bypass contactors are closed. Upon detection of a voltage drop across a thyristor switch, the thyristor switch is fired immediately to transfer motor current from the bypass contactor to the thyristor switch in order to maintain voltage and current to the AC motor.

    摘要: A hybrid active filter shunts three-phase power with passive elements tuned to have low impedance at a frequency of harmonic distortion. The passive elements are in series with controlled voltages sources providing cancelling currents to the harmonic currents. Rapid determination of the harmonic currents is provided in real-time through the use of a Park transformation reducing the variables which need to be manipulated. Measured currents as transformed are used to model undistorted current based on an average power consumed by the load. When the undistorted current is subtracted from the actual current, a harmonic current signal is produced that may be used to drive the voltage sources. The time domain method requires rapidly computed running averages and thus may be performed in-between the acquisition of the measured current samples.
