Abstract

Relevance Uninterrupted operation of industrial facilities, oil and gas sector, metallurgy, power generation and other industries directly depends on reliable operation of critical mechanisms driven by electromechanical converters, operated as a part of working complexes. Reliability of operation of such mechanisms depends on reliability of all elements that make up the technological process. Inductions motor with squirrel-cage rotor (including high-voltage motors) is one of the most common types of converters of electrical energy into mechanical energy. Its uninterrupted operation directly depends on the reliability of two main elements: stator and rotor. If the causes of induction motor failure due to stator causes (inter-turn, inter-phase and single-phase short circuits) are determined by the provided protections, the damage in the rotor circuit can be implicit and exist for a long time, violating the machine uptime. Also, most of the faults in the inductions motor, leading to an emergency shutdown of technological processes of working complexes have their own history of development. At the moment of occurrence and during the period when the defect does not affect the serviceability of the machine, but its operation becomes critically dangerous, because it is not possible to determine the presence of the defect. So, for example, the breakage of the short-circuited rotor core of a high-voltage induction motor manifests itself at the stage of exit to the air gap at the time of operation, with subsequent damage to the stator winding and the magnetic core. In this case, the existence of this defect took place within a certain period of time, sufficient for its detection by means of diagnostic devices. The article analyzes the currently developed systems for diagnosing the presence of a fault according to various parameters (temperature, noise, vibration, analysis of electrical values consumed) both in the stator and in the rotor. It is determined that the most promising and technically feasible are methods based on the analysis of stator currents. When studying the works in the direction of inductions motor diagnostics it was found that a significant proportion of failures of mechanisms operated in the working complexes due to failure of inductions motor occurs due to broken rotor bar. Aim of research Analyze the existing methods for diagnosing induction motors during operation. Research methods The article used general scientific research methods: the method of analysis of literary sources, the study and generalization of information, comparison, classification. Results The analysis of existing methods of continuous diagnostics of induction motors for internal electrical and mechanical damage is carried out. It has been determined that the most promising from the point of view of economic and technical feasibility are methods based on the analysis of currents consumed by the stator.
