Neural networks application for induction motor faults diagnosis

Abstract: The paper deals with diagnosis problems of the induction motors in the case of rotor, stator and rolling bearing faults. Two kinds of neural networks (NN) were proposed for diagnostic purposes: multilayer perceptron networks and self organizing Kohonen networks. Neural networks were trained and tested using measurement data of stator current and mechanical vibration spectra. The efficiency of developed neural detectors was evaluated. Feedforward NN with very simple internal structure, used for the detection of all fault kinds, gave satisfactory results, which is very important in practical realization. Experiments with Kohonen networks indicated that they could be used for the initial classification of motor faults, as an introductory step before the proper neural detector based on multiplayer perceptron is used. The obtained results lead to a conclusion that neural detectors for rotor and stator faults as well as for rolling bearings and supply asymmetry faults can be developed based on measurement data acquired on-line in the drive system.
