Abstract

Motor current signal analysis is a common method that can be applied to the monitoring and diagnosis of electromechanical equipment. Three-phase unbalance will increase the line power loss and affect the safe operation of power-using equipment. To quickly analyze motor current three-phase unbalance, we propose a method to analyze three-phase unbalance by calculating the coefficient of variation of the three-phase current’s instantaneous frequency and instantaneous amplitude. Simulations were conducted to analyze the effects of amplitude deviation and phase deviation on the coefficient of variation of instantaneous frequency and instantaneous amplitude. The three-phase unbalance with continuous amplitude change was simulated and its instantaneous performance was analyzed. Experiments were conducted to compare and analyze the instantaneous information characteristics of the motor with the continuous changing of three-phase unbalance under different speed conditions. Simulations and experiments show that the proposed method in this paper can analyze three-phase unbalance.
