Abstract
Availability and continuous operation under critical conditions are very important in electric machine drive systems. Such systems may suffer from several types of failures that affect the electric machine or the associated voltage source inverter. Therefore, fault diagnosis and fault tolerance are highly required. This paper presents a new robust deep learning-based approach to diagnose multiple open-circuit faults in three-phase, two-level voltage source inverters for induction-motor drive applications. The proposed approach uses fault-diagnosis variables obtained from the sigmoid transformation of the motor stator currents. The open-circuit fault-diagnosis variables are then introduced to a bidirectional long short-term memory algorithm to detect the faulty switch(es). Several simulation and experimental results are presented to show the proposed fault-diagnosis algorithm’s effectiveness and robustness.
