Abstract

The article considers the differential equations of a switched permanent magnet motor in which a short-circuit fault occurred in one or more turns in one of parallel stator winding branches. Owing to the occurred asymmetry of the phase quantities, symmetrical line-to-line voltages at the stator winding terminals are assumed. It is shown that turn-to-turn short-circuit faults give rise to non-sinusoidal and imbalanced phase currents and voltages at the nominal load torque on the shaft, and it should be noted that initially, a growth of the frequency and ratios of currents in the phases with an increase in the number of short-circuited turns are observed, after which the phase currents tend to decrease (with a continuing growth in the current through the short-circuited loop), and the rotor stalling occurs. The growth of motor rotation frequency and decrease of its overloading capacity take place due to a growth in the demagnetizing effect of armature reaction caused by the current through the short-circuited stator winding turns.
