Abstract
The effect of voltage unbalance in electrical networks that supply electrified traction loads on the operating regimes of large asynchronous motors (AMs) is considered. Based on the method of symmetrical components and analysis of hodographs of magnetic fields of AMs with a short squirrel-cage rotor, the influence of various types of voltage unbalance (continuous and intermittent) on its vibration characteristics is studied. It is shown that an increase in magnetic induction in the air gap of an AM causes an increase in radial vibration generating forces in the case of voltage unbalance. The obtained results indicate that alternating voltage unbalance can be riskier for AM operation than is constant voltage unbalance, in addition to having increased levels of AM vibrations. It is concluded that the use of new parameters of electric-energy quality allowing determination of instantaneous values of unbalance amplitude and the angle between symmetrical components of voltage of positive and negative phase-sequence is reasonable. The relevance of this research is confirmed by typical cases of AM shutoff at an oil-pumping station due to tripping of vibration-protection sensors.
