Abstract of the Topic:
For the healthy operation of an Electric Vehicle (EV) drive, it is vital to continuously monitor its State of Health (SOH) to avoid faults and failures in the system. Condition monitoring of EV is accomplished through monitoring of machine data/signatures obtained from its operational and mechanical drive unit. The operating unit comprising of batteries and the mechanical drive system which constitute electrical machines, are continuously monitored to estimate the SOH of the system.
The talk will focus more on the fault diagnosis of electrical machines when deployed in electrified transportation. The employment of analytical and hybrid techniques to diagnose the faults of a motor drive system will be discussed. The machine signatures in terms of stator phase currents (Is), magnetic flux (ψ) and motor back-EMF (EB) will be used to comprehensively estimate the health of the motor under operation in EVs. Other signatures such as acoustic noise/vibrations will also explored in the presentation, as new emerging techniques for condition monitoring of EVs. The current health monitoring techniques are based only on machine quantities, which are measured using cost effective sensors to estimate the performance of an EV drive, hence minimizing the cost of diagnostic tools.
This study finds its relevance in effective health monitoring of rural electric transportation deployed in developing countries.
