Squirrel-cage induction motors are increasingly displaying a broken rotor bar fault, which represents both a technical problem and an economic problem. After confirming that the broken rotor bars do not affect the normal start-up and basic working performance of the squirrel-cage induction motor, this paper focuses on the loss and efficiency changes of the motor brought about by the broken rotor bar fault. Using finite element simulation and experimentation, various losses like stator copper loss, iron loss, rotor copper loss, mechanical loss and additional losses, total loss and efficiency are obtained. By combining price and cost factors, the cost-effective measures that can be taken after the occurrence of different degrees of broken bars are evaluated here to provide guidance for correctly handling this problem.

Induction machines (IMs) are commonly used in various industrial sectors. It is essential to recognize IM defects at their earliest stage so as to prevent machine performance degradation and improve production quality and safety. This work will focus on IM broken rotor bar (BRB) fault detection, as BRB fault could generate extra heating, vibration, acoustic noise, or even sparks in IMs.

This paper investigates the detection of broken rotor bar in squirrel cage induction motors using a novel approach of randomly positioning a triaxial sensor over the motor surface. This study is conducted on two motors under laboratory conditions, where one motor is kept in a healthy state, and the other is subjected to a broken rotor bar (BRB) fault. The induced electromotive force of the triaxial coils, recorded over ten days with 100 measurements per day, is statistically analyzed.

Induction motors (IM) play a fundamental role in the industrial sector because they are robust, efficient, and low-cost machines. Changes in the environment, installation errors, or modifications to working conditions can generate faults in induction motors. The trend on IM fault detection is focused on the design techniques and sensors capable of evaluating multiple faults with various signals using non-invasive analysis.
