Unplanned downtime is very costly. Therefore, fault diagnosis is essential for making a predictive plan for maintenance and saving the required time and cost. This paper presents a model-based diagnosis technique for diagnosing an open-circuit fault in any phase of a three-phase induction motor. The proposed strategy requires only current signals from the faulty machine to compare them with the healthy currents from an induction motor model. Then the errors of comparison are used as an objective function for a genetic algorithm that estimates the parameters of a healthy model, which they employed to identify and localize the fault. The simulation results illustrate the behaviours of basic parameters (stator and rotor resistances, self-inductances, and mutual inductance) and the number of stator winding turn parameters with respect to the location of an open-circuit fault. The results confirm that the number of stator winding turns are the useful parameters and can be utilized as an identifier for an open-circuit fault. The originality of this work is in extracting fault diagnosis features from the variations of the number of stator winding turns.}, type={Article}, title={Open-circuit fault diagnosis in three-phase induction motor using model-based technique}, URL={http://czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/117665/PDF/art06.pdf}, doi={10.24425/aee.2020.134632}, keywords={induction motor, model-based diagnosis, number of turns, open-circuit fault}, }
