Abstract

Induction motors are the workhorse of modern industry. Three-phase induction motors are the most common and frequently encountered machines in industry because of their simple design, rugged, low-price, easy maintenance and wide range of power ratings ranging from fractional horsepower to 10 MW. A low cost technique based on principle of motion is presented here to measure torque against speed of a three phase induction machine run on no-load. A simple Visual C# program can give an excellent graphic user interface (GUI) and provide many utilities to capture electrical motor performance during starting by using PC. It is interesting to note that this same technique can be used to measure starting torque of any prime mover such as single phase motor, diesel/petrol engine, wind/steam or gas turbine. Finally the availability of advanced electronics and computer software and use of microcontrollers, DSP has simplified and extended our ability to measure and analyse motor characteristics to improve performance as well as detect anomaly as a quality control procedure.

一种新颖的基于PC的原动机性能测量工具

感应电动机是现代工业的主力。三相感应电动机是工业中最常见和最常遇到的机器，因为它们设计简单，坚固耐用，价格低廉，易于维护，额定功率范围从分数马力到10兆瓦不等。本文提出了一种基于运动原理的低成本三相感应电机空载转矩与转速的测量方法。一个简单的Visual c#程序可以提供一个优秀的图形用户界面(GUI)，并提供许多实用程序来捕捉电动机在PC启动时的性能。有趣的是，同样的技术可以用来测量任何原动机的启动扭矩，如单相电动机，柴油/汽油发动机，风/蒸汽或燃气轮机。最后，先进的电子和计算机软件的可用性以及微控制器的使用，DSP简化和扩展了我们测量和分析电机特性的能力，以提高性能以及检测异常作为质量控制程序。
