Bearing is an induction motor component that helps the rotor to move freely, in industrial applications it is important to maintain bearing performance in induction motors. In its use, bearing damage is one of the biggest types of damage that is often found in induction motors. Bearing damage can lead to increased vibration, increased noise, increased working temperature, and decreased efficiency. Efficiency reduction can be used as information on the condition of the motor so that this information can be used to detect damage before more serious damage occurs. This research discusses the stator current analysis method and the efficiency of damage to the motor through two harmonic amplitude ratios equipped with the fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm in detecting damage to the outer race bearing. It is hoped that this efficiency can be used as an evaluation of the extent to which motor energy waste occurs before more severe damage. The efficiency results on the damage to the outer race bearing using the FFT method get the highest efficiency value of 1.47 and the lowest value of 0.66.

This article presents the effectiveness of bispectrum analysis for the detection of the rotor unbalance of an induction motor supplied by the mains and a frequency converter. Two diagnostic signals were analyzed, as well as the stator current and mechanical vibrations of the tested motors. The experimental tests were realized for two low-power induction motors, with one and two pole pairs, respectively. The unbalance was modeled using a test mass mounted on a specially prepared disc and directly on the rotor and the influence of this unbalance location was tested and discussed. The results of the bispectrum analysis are compared with results of Fourier transform and the effectiveness of unbalance detection are discussed and compared. The influence of the registration time of the analyzed signal on the quality of fault symptom analyses using both transforms was also tested. It is shown that the bispectrum analysis provides an increased number of fault symptoms in comparison with the classical spectral analysis as well as it is not sensitive to a shorter registration time of the diagnostic signals.

This paper deals with the possibilities of bearing fault diagnosis of induction motors by stator currents analysis based on Park’s vector approach. The main theoretical aspects, the experimental results and their analysis are presented. It is shown that preventive stator current diagnostics of induction motors based on Park’s vector allows us early detection of bearing defects in the inner and outer races. The current spectra additional harmonics appearing in the case of bearing damage are found.

In applications in the industrial world, the use of induction motors has been widely used in operation because induction motors have many advantages, although they have many advantages, induction motors themselves also have disadvantages, namely having high starting currents. In many cases the damage to the induction motor, the damage to the stator due to a short circuit, is a frequent failure, this damage can cause considerable losses because the motor can stop operation So this research will discuss about the detection of short circuit faults in the stator winding through leaky flux using a flux sensor that is placed outside the motor and placed radially and using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) method. Damage to the short circuit is done by reconstructing the stator winding of the induction motor. There are two variations of short circuit damage, namely short circuit winding 1 to winding 3 and short circuit winding 2 to winding 10 on an induction motor. The short circuit data is then processed using the Fast Fourier Transform method which produces data in the form of voltage to frequency. The results of the percentage of success of short circuit fault detection seen from the loaders have an average percentage of 50%, at no load conditions can detect short circuit faults by 100%. In conditions of short circuit interruption 1-3 has a success percentage of 30% and short circuit fault 2-10 by 70%. The existence of this system is expected to be able to anticipate any damage that can cause considerable and fatal losses.

In this paper, a study has presented the performance of a neural networks technique to detect the broken rotor bars (BRBs) fault in induction motors (IMs). In this context, the fast Fourier transform (FFT) applied on Hilbert modulus obtained via the stator current signal has been used as a diagnostic signal to replace the FFT classic, the characteristics frequency are selected from the Hilbert modulus spectrum, in addition, the different load conditions are used as three inputs data for the neural networks. The efficiency of the proposed method is verified by simulation in MATLAB environment.

Induction motors are widely used from home to industrial applications. Speed of induction motor plays important role, so to control the speed of induction motor various techniques are adopted and one of these techniques is V/F control, which is adopted in this paper. This technique helps to control the speed in open control system in RPM. Moreover, Control is designed in LabVIEW, it is quite helpful to develop the circuit graphically and code is automatically written in the background to run on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). The aim of this research is to study the impacts on diverse parameters during speed control of three phase induction machine with manipulation of GPIC. Solar technology is used as input source to drive the General-Purpose Inverter Controller (GPIC). Apart of this, impacts of modulation index and carrier frequency influencing the active, reactive and apparent power, temperature and power quality and current overshoot is analysed. MATLAB/Simulink and LabVIEW tools are used for simulation and results along with GPIC, Induction motor and solar panel as hardware.
