Abstract:Damper bars play an important role in synchronous motors. Among other functions, they enable the direct-on-line startup of these machines. Moreover, they allow enhancing their stability during load transients. However, the large currents and stresses to which those elements are subjected during their operation intervals increase the probability of winding deterioration and of eventual breakage. This paper presents a logical extension of a transient-based diagnosis approach, whose application was successfully a… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
