Summary: | The Dual-Redundancy Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (DRPMSM) with weak thermal coupling and no electromagnetic coupling among phase windings has two sets of three-phase symmetrical windings. Under normal conditions, two sets of windings can operate simultaneously, and once one set has an inter-turn short circuit fault (ISCF), the other set will operate alone, so a DRPMSM can be applied in fields with high reliability requirements. According to the equivalent circuit principle, a simplified model of a DRPMSM when ISCF occurs is established in this paper, and mathematical equations for the equivalent resistance, inductance and induction electromotive force (EMF) are derived. Based on the simplified circuit principle and instantaneous power theory, combined with the analysis of the fundamental wave in the two sets, an online diagnosis method of the ISCF for DRPMSM is proposed based on the reactive power difference and the feasibility of the method is verified by experiments.
