  • starting performances of delta modulated inverter fed Submersible induction Motors
    IEEE Transactions on Industry Applications, 1992
    Co-Authors: M A Choudhury, M A Rahman
    Abstract:

    An analysis of the starting performance of tuned delta-modulated inverter-fed Submersible Motors is presented. Submersible Motors are induction Motors having unique constructional features. These Motors are required to operate in one of the harshest environmental conditions. The operating characteristics of a Submersible motor pump system require a soft starting facility and variable speed operation. To satisfy both requirements, a delta-modulated inverter supply is proposed, and its starting performance is presented. The soft starting characteristic of the motor was obtained by the inherent V/f, control of the delta-modulated inverter. The analysis was carried out using time domain representation of inverter voltages and the d-q axis model of the motor. The time domain representation of inverter voltages was done using gate functions. The starting performances of the Submersible motor improved substantially. Although the analysis and results presented are for a Submersible model, these are equally applicable for any type of polyphase induction motor. >

  • efficiency improvement for Submersible Motors by optimizing the ratio of diameter to shaft length
    IEEE Transactions on Magnetics, 2021
    Co-Authors: Xiaohua Bao
    Abstract:

    Aiming to improve the efficiency of the water-filled Submersible motor, the method of optimizing the ratio of diameter to shaft length and air-gap length of the motor is proposed to reduce the water friction loss of the water-filled Submersible motor. By analyzing the composition of the mechanical loss and the research status of the water friction loss of the water-filled Submersible motor, the optimization methods of the water-filled Submersible motor efficiency are determined. Two-dimensional time-harmonic field solutions are employed in this paper to accurately estimate the electromagnetic performance of the Submersible motor, which costs less time and computational resources compared to the transient solution. By fitting the curves of water friction loss and electromagnetic losses with the optimized parameters, the influence of the ratio of diameter to shaft length and the length of the air-gap on the efficiency of the motor is analyzed. Finally, the parameters of the motor are determined, with the consideration of the influence of the radial to axial ratio and the air-gap length on the performance parameters of the motor and the requirements of actual working conditions. The results show that the two methods can effectively reduce the water friction loss of the water-filled Submersible motor and improve the efficiency of the water-filled Submersible motor in the motor design stage.

  • analysis of electromagnetic stiffness in Submersible Motors with inclined rotor eccentricity
    International Conference on Electrical Machines and Systems, 2014
    Co-Authors: Yong Fang, Na Liang, Xiaohua Bao
    Abstract:

    The electromagnetic stiffness is an important parameter in electromechanical coupling system, and it depends on whether there is eccentricity in motor air-gap. In this paper, the electromagnetic stiffness is proposed. The slipping surface technique is cited. The Submersible Motors with inclined rotor is applied, and the influence of eccentricity rotor on electromagnetic stiffness is calculated theoretically and compared by finite element simulation, based on which the calculation modeling of electromagnetic stiffness is built. Furthermore the distribution of magnetic field energy as well as electromagnetic stiffness along the machine axis, in the Submersible Motors with inclined rotor, is obtained. The variation of magnetic field energy with eccentricity angle reflecting eccentricity level, and the relationship between electromagnetic stiffness and inclined angle alpha, are obtained respectively. Finally the reliability of model by comparing the simulation results with numerical analysis is presented. The investigation in this paper supports references in the eccentricity fault diagnosis for Submersible Motors and theoretical basis for study of rotor dynamics.

  • influence of thermal expansion on eccentricity and critical speed in dry Submersible induction Motors
    Journal of Electrical Engineering & Technology, 2014
    Co-Authors: Xiaohua Bao
    Abstract:

    Rotor eccentricity is one of the major factors that directly influence the security of horizontal electrical machines, and the critical speed of the shaft has a close relationship with vibration. This paper deals with the influence of thermal expansion on the rotor eccentricity and critical speed in large dry Submersible Motors. The dynamic eccentricity (where the rotor is still turning around the stator bore centre but not its own centre) and critical speed of a three-phase squirrel- cage Submersible induction motor are calculated via hybrid analytical/finite element method. Then the influence of thermal expansion is investigated by simulation. It is predicted from the study that the thermal expansion of the rotor and stator gives rise to a significant air-gap length decrement and an inconspicuous slower critical speed. The results show that the thermal expansion should be considered as an impact factor when designing the air gap length.
