1 INTRODUCTION

Three phase induction motors are very important indifferent applications in industrial and power sys-tems (F. Jawad, 2009) as it is commonly known thatinduction motors have good properties such as highly

reliability, require low maintenance, and have highefficiency. Therefore, the condition monitoring ofthese electrical machines has received considerableattention in recent years as fault detection and diag-nosis are very important to reduce the maintenancecast and prevent downtimes for electrical drive sys-tems (B. Mirafzal, 2006).

Induction motors have many type of faults, whilesome of these fault happen in the stator or in the ro-tor, such as short circuit in stator winding, broken ro-tor bar, and bearing faults (Nandi and Toliyat, 2005).Stator winding consists of coils of insulated copperwire placed in the stator slots, while the stator wind-ing faults start due to the insulation breakdown be-tween two adjacent turns in a coil for the same phase;this fault is usually called a turn–to–turn fault or inter-turn short circuit. Therefore, this type of fault is veryserious as it will produce an extra heat, and it will cre-ate an imbalance in the magnetic filed of the machine.In fact, the majority of these defects are due to a com-bination of various stresses acting on the stator, whichcan be classified into thermal, electrical, mechanical,and environmental factors.

Until now, various scientific methods have beenproposed in the field of fault detection and diagno-

sis for induction motors such as: a) Artificial Neu-ral Networks (Gaeid and Mohamed, 2010), b) FastFourier Transform (Bachi et al., 2006), c) Time StepCoupled Finite Element-State Space (Gaeid and Mo-hamed, 2010), d) Motor Current Signature Analy-sis (Aydin et al., 2011), e) Wavelets, and ComplexPark Vectors (Gaeid and Mohamed, 2010).

All of these methods base their operation on spec-tral analysis of stator currents, stator voltages, andelectromagnetic torque (Aydin et al., 2011), whileare able to provide a faster detection and identifica-tion of the fault, but will lead to incorrect conclu-sions in some cases, such as low load conditions, intransient situations or in perturbed environments (i.e.fluctuating load torque and unideal supply). From an-other point of view Independent Component Analy-sis (ICA) and Support Vector Machines (SVMs) havebeen applied to detect and diagnose of induction mo-tor faults (Widodo et al., 2007; A. Widodo, 2008)as alternative approaches to the previous mentionedcases.

The novelty and the main scientific contributionof this article stems from: a) the combination ofthe SM–identification technique for calculating recur-sively the motor parameters and the correspondinguncertainty bounds based on the assumed noise levels,with b) the proposal of a fault detection scheme basedon fundamental geometrical properties of the calcu-lated parameter bounding uncertainty. More analyti-cally, in this article the problem of fault detection istransformed to the geometrical problem of represent-ing uncertainty intoµ–dimensional hyper–ellipsoidspaces and examining basic properties of the result-ing µ–dimensional spaces, such as center of ellipsoid,ellipsoidal intersection, and distance from the centers.The proposed scheme has a low complexity and as itis going to be presented in the sequel, it can be di-rectly transferred to real life implementations.

The rest of the article is being structured as it fol-lows. In Section 2 the model derivation and simpli-fication, for the healthy and the faulty cases is beingderived. In Section 3 the SMI scheme is being pre-sented, followed by the proposed fault conditioningframework in Section 4. Section 5 contains multiplesimulation results that prove the efficacy of the pro-posed methodology, while the conclusions are drawnin the last Section 6.

2.2 Stator Winding Short CircuitModeling

The focus of this research effort is on the stator faultsduring short circuit between stator winding, whichhappen in one phase of the motor. In the examinedcase all the stator parameters are considered to beidentical when short circuit happens in the windingof the three phase induction motor, while both sta-tor’s resistance and inductance, as also the mutual in-ductances between stator and rotor will be directlyaffected. In the case of such a fault, the modified(faulty) versions of the matricesA and B in equa-tion (1), will be changed toA∗ andB∗ and becomeas:

A∗ = −R∗f L∗

3 SET MEMBERSHIPIDENTIFICATION

The method of Weighted Recursive Least SquaresSet Membership Identification has been utilized ef-ficiently in the fault detection and diagnosis in bothcases of broken rotor bar and short circuit in statorwinding for the three phase induction motor (Mustafaet al., 2012b). The objective of the Set MembershipIdentification technique (SMI) is the determination ofa feasible recursively identified uncertainty parame-ter set that contains the nominal parameter vector andis consistent with a linearly parameterizable model,the measurement data and the a priori known boundednoise–error. In the SMI approach, instead of identify-ing directly the unknown parameter, the correspond-ing uncertainty bounds that include the nominal valueare being calculated instead, while in each iterationthe center of the uncertainty interval is equal with thecurrent value of the identified parameter.

Theq−d model of the induction motor is being trans-formed into an ARMA system, which can be de-scribed in a generic form as:

i j(t) = Φ j (t)T θ j (t)+ej (t) (2)

whereθ j(t) is the identified parameter vector set andthe subindexj represents the current set that can beselected as one from:[qs, ds]. Moreoverθ j(t) con-tains the corresponding coefficients of the selectedARMA model and can be defined in the general caseas:

θ j (t) = [Fj ,1(t), . . . , Fn,1(t), Tj ,1(t), . . . ,Tm,1(t)] (3)

the regression vectorΦ j(t) is formulated as:

Φ j (t) = [−y j(t −1), . . . ,−y j (t −n), . . . ,

u j (t +m−n−1), . . . ,u j (t −n)]

and the adopted ARMA model representation of thetransfer function of induction motor will be denotedas:

i j

Vj=

Tj ,1zm−1+Tj ,2zm−2+ .......+Tj ,m

zn+Fj ,1zn−1+ .......+Fj ,n

The identified parameters presented in equation (3),are directly related with the motor parameters (resis-tance and inductance of the stator and rotor), whilemore details about the mathematical relationship be-tween these parameters of induction motor in thehealthy case could be found in (Mustafa et al., 2012b;Mustafa et al., 2012a), wheren, m∈ Z+ are the ordersof the numerator and denominator for each consideredtransfer function andµ= n+m.

In equation (2) the additive measurement noise isassumed to be bounded byγ j ∈ ℜ+ as:

γ j ||ej(t)||2 ≤ 1,∀ t

The core of the SMI technique is based on theWeighted Recursive Least Squares (WRLS) with aforgetting factor(λ) for identifying the θ j motor’sparameters and can be formulated by the followingdouble recursions (Guastafsson, 2001) in the sampleinstancet and for the MIMO casej as:

θ j(t) = θ j (t −1)+K j (t)(y j (t)−ΦTj (t)θ j (t −1))

K j(t) = Pj(t)Φ j(t) = Pj(t −1)Φ j (t)(λ

+ΦTj (t)Pj(t −1)φ j (t))

−1

Pj(t) = (I −K j (t) ΦTj (t))Pj(t −1)/λ

ej(t) = y j (t)−ΦTj (t)θ j(t −1)

G j(t) = ΦTj (t)Pj(t −1)Φ(t)

In the SMI approach the uncertainty description isevolving with the time, as the better the knowledge ofthe parameters is, the smaller these bounds are, while

as a fundamental property in SMI (Deller, 1989a),these bounds cannot be less than the assumed or com-puted range of noise corrupting the measurements.For calculating the upper and lower boundary of theidentified parameters, the uncertainty boundsσ j(t),should be computed in every iteration and will be-come as:

σ j(t) =√

diag(Pj(t)) (4)

with the covariance matrix denoted asCj(t) = Pj(t)−1 and P positive definite (Deller,1989b; Le et al., 2008).

4 FAULT DETECTIONCONDITIONING

Based on the SMI scheme, presented in Section 3 andon the uncertainty bounds in Eq. (4), for every iden-tified parameter a hyper ellipsoid can be defined hav-ing as center the current values of the identified pa-rameters from Eq. (2). In the following analysis, thenotation for these identified values will be simplifiedto (Kurzhanskiy and Varaiya, 2008):

θ j (t) = [q1(t) . . . qn+m(t)] (5)

and the ellipsoid will be considered as the setε(q,σ)in Rn+m with centerq and shape matrixσ as:

ε(q,σ) = {x∈ Rn | 〈(x−q),σ−1(x−q)〉 ≤ 1} (6)

whereσ is positive definite,〈x,σx〉> 0 for all nonzerox ∈ Rn+m and with〈·, ·〉 to denote the inner product.The support function of a setX ⊆ Rn+m and the sup-port function of the ellipsoid in Eq. (6) will becomeas:

ρ(l | X) = supx∈X〈x, l〉 (7)

ρ(l | ε(q,σ)) = 〈l ,q〉+(〈l ,σl〉)12 (8)

Therefore, it is useful to give an alternative definitionof an ellipsoid using the expression Eq. (8) as:

ε(q,σ) = {x∈ Rn | 〈l , x〉 ≤ 〈l , q〉+ (9)

〈l ,σl〉12 } for all l ∈ Rn+m

whereσ is positive semidefinite,〈x,σx〉 ≥ 0 for allnonzerox∈ Rn+m (Kurzhanskiy and Varaiya, 2008).Given two hyper–ellipsoidsε(q1,σ1) and ε(q2,σ2),the distance between them is:

dist(ε(q1,σ1),ε(q1,σ1)) = max〈l ,l〉=1

(−ρ(−l |ε(q1,σ1))

−(ρ(l |ε(q2,σ2))

= max〈l ,l〉=1

(〈l ,q1〉− (〈l ,σ1l〉)12

−〈l ,q2〉− (〈l ,σ2l〉)12 )

The intersection between two ellipsoids can be alsotransformed to a distance problem, which can becast as Quadratically Constrained Quadratic Program-ming (QCQP) problem as: (Kurzhanskiy and Varaiya,2008):

dist(ε(qo,σo),ε(qf ,σ f )) = min〈(xo−yf ),(xo−yf )〉 (10)

sub ject to

〈(qo−xo),σo−1(qo−xo)〉 ≤ 1

〈(qf −yf ),σ f−1(qf −yf )〉 ≤ 1

with xo, xf ,yo, yf ∈ℜn points on the hyper–ellipsoidssurfaces for the healthy and the faulty case respec-tively, with the following conditions:

dist(ε(qo,σo),ε(qf ,σ f ))

> 0: no common points= 0: one common point< 0: ellipsoids intersect

The proposed fault detection scheme is based only ongeometrical properties of the structured parameters’uncertainty and more specifically is based on the on-line and fast computation of the recursively computedcenters of ellipsoids and the corresponding distancesbetween the centers. In all the performed geometri-cal calculations two ellipsoids are being considered:a) the nominal and converged ellipsoid of the errorfree identified motor model, denoted asεo, and b) theiteratively computed uncertainty ellipsoidε after pa-rameters’ convergence and the definition of the previ-ous nominal ellipsoidεo. In Figure 1, two illustrativeinstances representing bounding ellipsoid uncertaintyfrom the case of the healthy and faulty motor’s opera-tion are presented in a projection into a 2–dimensionalframe, to allow a straight forward and comprehensivegeometrical representation, without any loss of gener-ality.

In the case of a stator winding short circuit, the val-ues of the identified parameters and the correspond-ing uncertainty bounds will drift from their convergedvalues, which has a direct effect and change on thecenter and the direction of the bounding uncertaintyµ–dimensional hyper ellipsoids at each sample time(iteration) and thus a fault detection scheme can bedirectly established based on a straight forward in-spection of geometrical properties for the boundingellipsoids as it is being presented in Figure 2.

The initialization phase of the proposed fault de-tection algorithm assumes that the SMI scheme hasconverged in identifying the nominal parameters ofthe adopted model for the induction motor and thusthe corresponding bounds on the parametric uncer-tainty intervals have been also converged. In the se-quel the SMI scheme continuous the online identifi-cation of the parameters, while constructing the se-quential bounding uncertaintyµ–D ellipsoids. Upon ashort circuit fault the upcoming online calculatedµ–Dbounding ellipsoids will present a change in their vol-ume and an intersection will occur with the nominaldefined convergedµ–D ellipsoid volume, which is adirect indication of a fault. In case that there is no in-tersection the fault detection algorithm will continueto operate, while checking the existence of such an in-tersection. The parametric drift after the event of thefault will also produce a corresponding drift on the el-lipsoid’s center and thus the distance among ellipsoidcenters are being also tracked by calculating the valueof L. In case that this distance is not close to 0, then incombination with the ellipsoid intersection, these twoconditions will lead to a fault detection instance.

The centers of ellipsoids and the corresponding uncer-tainty bounds will drift from their converged healthyvalue at each sample time. The ellipsoids intersec-tion between the nominal case and the faulty case hasbeen easily tracked in the proposed geometrical ap-proach to fault detection, while this drift will evolveafter fault’s occurrence. In Figure 8 it is also pre-sented the geometrical drift in the bounding ellipsoidsand the corresponding intersection, for the case wherea different triplet have been considered of a centerTqs,1, Fqs,2, Tqs,4 for the case of 2% short circuit.

Finally the distanceL in the case that the whole(µ)-dimensional hyper ellipsoid is being consideredduring the healthy operation and after the fault oc-currence, for the cases of 2%, and 5% short circuitare being presented in Figure 10. As it can be pre-sented, the hyper distance will be increased after thefault occurrence and it will become greater than zeroas shown in figures (9).

6 CONCLUSIONS

In this article a fault detection scheme for differentpercentage of stator winding short circuit in one phaseof three phase induction motors is presented. The mo-tor’s model was identified by the utilization of a LeastSquares Set Membership Identification (SMI) algo-rithm, where additional to the identified parameters,confidence intervals have been calculated, These in-tervals in anµ–dimensional space can be representedas hyper–ellipsoids having as a center the identifiedparameters’ vector and thus a geometrical fault detec-tion scheme has been proposed, which relied on thecalculation of the distance among centers of hyper–ellipsoids and the corresponding intersections. Ex-tended simulation results were presented that proventhe efficiency of the suggested scheme.
