Following is the code used to develop the script bringing the details developed in Parts I-VI together for classification and RUL/TTFE outputs in the Part VII article: (article to be posted by September 19, 2021. *Note: The code in this article is for demonstration purposes only and is not meant for real-world applications of this…
Following is the code used to create the voltage, current and power factor defect for the article which can be found here: Part V: Machine Learning (ML) With Raw Electric Motor Data | THE RAM REVIEW *Note: The code in this article is for demonstration purposes only and is not meant for real-world applications of…
For trying out the method described Mathworks (https://mathworks.com) provides 30 day trials of their personal and business versions of the Matlab and Simulink systems. The *.csv files created for this article series were developed within Matlab (Figure 2) using the code which follows. *Note: The code in this article is for demonstration purposes only and…
Two significant issues in wind power asynchronous generators are magnetic wedge loss and coil movement resulting in winding faults. Most of the time the failures occur unexpectedly or require borescope or visual inspections of the generator stators. In this paper we will identify how both conditions can be detected during operation through Electrical Signature Analysis. …
Through proper application of simulation and modeling within industrial environments, greater impact for energy, waste and production improvements can occur. Modern simulation and modeling systems can help determine impacts of energy and waste reduction concepts on production and vice-versa. Through a 1999 Illinois Department of Commerce and Community Affairs funded project, improvements of over 40%…
Initial testing of an ID fan performed in 2018 with corrections made and retesting performed with EMPATH analysis, GTI Predictive vibration analysis and RDI motion amplification. While values were not extreme in the pre-test, the resulting vibration destroyed fan bearings and other poor conditions which prevented the operation of the fan system. Testing was performed…
As we start into ESA theories and application, we will have to spend a little time on electric motor theory. As we will start out with a basic system, AC motors are the simplest in terms of operation and components, we will start out with AC induction motors. Using this base knowledge, we can later…
It does happen, although rarely, in typical industrial environments that an electric machine will die of old age. The reason is that machines are often exposed to contamination issues, other environmental issues, power issues or a combination of events that degrade the insulation slowly or rapidly. There is also a rule of reliability that should…
