RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Demodulation Technique for Broken Rotor Bar Detection in Inverter-Fed Induction Motor Under Non-Stationary Conditions A1 Garcia-Calva, Tomas Alberto A1 Morinigo-Sotelo, Daniel A1 Garcia-Perez, Arturo A1 Camarena-Martinez, David A1 de Jesus Romero-Troncoso, Rene AB Transient motor current signature analysis has become a mature technique for fault detection in induction motors. By using start-up transients, the whole range of slip in the machine is exploited to generate well defined fault-frequency patterns. However, in the inverter-fed motor case, the fault patterns are always close to the supply frequency and often of low amplitude. Therefore, it is difficult to distinguish and localize the fault-patterns. In this paper, a novel method is proposed to create a new fault pattern; the proposed technique can concentrate the fault harmonic in a specific frequency bandwidth and avoid the spectral leakage by reducing the supply frequency amplitude. The methodology has been validated through experimental tests carried out to detect broken rotor bar in an induction motor started through a voltage source inverter.
