Zusammenfassung:A method and apparatus to provide estimates of electrical parameters for line-connected induction motors during either steady-state or dynamic motor operations. The electrical parameters are calculated from the motor nameplate data and voltage and current measurements. No speed sensors or electronic injection circuits are needed. The method can be divided into 4 major steps. First, complex space vectors are synthesized from voltage and current measurements. Second, the instantaneous rotor speed is detected by calculating the rotational speed of a single rotor slot harmonic component with respect to the rotational speed of the fundamental frequency component. Third, the positive sequence fundamental frequency components are extracted from complex space vectors. Finally, least-squares estimates of the electrical parameters are determined from a dynamic induction motor equivalent circuit model.
