Abstract

The negative effects of a particular unbalanced voltage on the performance of an induction motor are studied in this paper. The paper suggests that the available definitions of unbalanced voltages are not comprehensive and complete. Therefore, the results of these analyses on motor performance are not very reliable. To prove this claim, a three-phase 25-hp squirrel-cage induction motor is analyzed under different unbalanced conditions. It is shown that it is necessary to define a more precise unbalanced factor for more accurate results. Experimental results verify the theoretical analysis.
