Increasing utilization of electrical machines results in an increasing demand of high reliability and safety. Especially in mission critical applications, unexpected failures of these machines may bring irrecoverable damages to the systems. Furthermore, such failures may be hazardous to human life in military or aerospace applications. One method to meet the reliability and safety requirement is introducing redundant modules to be used in case of an emergency. However, adding extra modules as substitutes increases overall cost, volume and complexity of the system. A better solution can be monitoring the machine condition continuously or running a test on the machine periodically to predict the failure before it causes a fatal damage to the system or human health. In this thesis, characteristics of possible machine faults are described. Methods for condition monitoring and fault detection are proposed. Different signal processing techniques are analyzed. Theoretical propositions are validated on an experimental test-rig. The results are examined to evaluate the accuracy of the proposed methods and possible further improvements are declared as future work.

Fault Tolerance Capabilities of Three, Four and Six-Phase Configurations of a 24 Slot Modular PMSM Bayazıt, Göksenin Hande; Keysan, Ozan (2019-07-01) In this study, fault tolerance and redundancy capabilities of different phase and winding configurations of an Integrated Modular Motor Drive (IMMD) system are investigated. This is made possible by manipulating gate drive signals of the inverter and phase connections. Three and four phase connections as well as symmetric and asymmetric six-phase topologies are described. Control strategies and redundancy possibilities of these different topologies under an open circuit fault condition are examined in MATLA...
Fault tolerant control of a dual-three-phase electrical machine with predictive current control and reduced computation burden Saraç, Hakan; Keysan, Ozan; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2022-2-01) Fault tolerance concept on electrical drives has gained more importance as electrical machines started to play more role in missin critical applications such as aircraft, EVs and HEVs. Redundant drives are a straightforward but an expensive solution. In conventional three-phase electrical drives, when an open or short circuit fault occurs on a phase of the machine, overall drive system is affected and operation of the machine becomes no longer possible. Therefore electrical machines with multiple phases or ...
Design of a GaN Based Integrated Modular Motor Drive Uğur, Mesut; Keysan, Ozan (2018-10-25) In this study, design procedure of an Integrated Modular Motor Drive (IMMD) is presented focusing on high power density. The design is based on a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) and GaN FETs. Fractional slot concentrated windings are used on the stator. Slot/pole combination and winding configuration is selected based on having low cogging torque and high winding factor. An extended motor drive inverter topology is proposed where 2-level voltage source inverters are connected both in series and pa...
Implementation of a vector controlled induction motor drive Acar, Akın; Ertan, Hulusi Bülent; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2004) High dynamic performance, which is obtained from dc motors, became achievable from induction motors with the recent advances in power semiconductors, digital signal processors and development in control techniques. By using field oriented control, torque and flux of the induction motors can be controlled independently as in dc motors. The control performance of field oriented induction motor drive greatly depends on the correct stator flux estimation. In this thesis voltage model is used for the flux estima...
Calculation of core losses of a six-phase induction motor with third harmonic current injection Büyükbaş, Afşin; Ertan, Hulusi Bülent; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2004) The advantages of using a six-phase induction motor for industrial drives, over the conventional three-phase drive can be summarized as improved reliability, reduction on the power ratings for the static converters and harmonic reduction. A technique of injecting third harmonic zero sequence current components in the phase currents to improve the machine torque density was presented recently by another research study. However, to meaninigfully evaluate the performnce of such machines and/or to be able to ma...
