Abstract
The main objective of this paper is to model failures of squirrel cage rotor induction motors, it presents the equations that model the machine variables, and we simulate an induction motor in the Matlab-Simulink software, to know and evaluate the effects of the stator windings when the motor experiences failure to function as a short circuit between spirals that there are many diagnostic methodologies for each class of failure. The most widely used technique is analyzing the frequency spectrum of one or several motor signals. A fault in the motor represents an asymmetry concerning its construction; consequently, harmonic components appear in the electrical signals that are related to the present fault, and the spectral analysis of motor current signatures applying the fast Fourier transform (FFT) to the current since these contain relevant information that is distinguished in a spectrum of frequencies.
期刊介绍:
Ahora que el fenómeno de la disciplinarización institucional está cada vez más marcado, Athenea Digital promueve la reflexión interdisciplinar en la tradición de las ciencias humanas y sociales. La revista aborda los fenómenos sociales contemporáneos en sus múltiples dimensiones (política, económica, cultural, comunicacional...) y valora la reflexión rigurosa sobre la articulación entre los diferentes dominios de la actividad humana. El principal objetivo de la revista es potenciar el diálogo y la innovación en los estudios sociales y culturales.
