Abstract The paper deals with the influence of a loss of one phase of a feeding source on the properties of a five-phase induction machine. The attention is paid to the waveforms of the currents in individual stator phases, the increase in torque pulsations and the decrease of speed in emergency operation after the disconnection of a faulty phase of the source. Machines in star, pentagon and …
Abstract The paper introduces the possibility to eliminate certain groups of spatial harmonics of the current layer, magnetic flux density in the air gap and flux in the yoke of the induction machine with the aim to increase the efficiency. The content of higher spatial harmonics is reduced by means of the so-called combined winding. It is shownhowthis winding must be arranged in stator slots…
The paper deals with analysis of the situation in a six-phase induction machine. For this purpose, the method of space vectors is used. It is shown that higher space harmonic waves of current layer, flux density and flux in the stator yoke have to be considered especially when the stator is fed by unbalanced voltages. The equations of a six-phase induction machine are derived and relation betwe…
