Abstract

This paper proposes a non-invasive method of predicting health monitoring of a three-phase Squirrel Cage Induction Motor (SCIM). A 15 kW SCIM is modelled using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for performing magnetic analysis to design a restraining coil. Since, torque developed depends on magnitude of flux, an electronic system is designed to display the torque. Health condition of SCIM is predicted based on torque magnitude. A typical implementation of the proposed scheme on 15 kW SCIM revealed a satisfactory correlation between the experimental and simulation results. The proposed approach aids to monitor the SCIM in Electric Vehicles (EVs) without physical intervention.
