Método experimental para determinação das capacitâncias parasitas do motor de indução trifásico acionado por inversor MLP

Abstract

Three-phase induction motors present stray capacitances. The aim of this paper is to present a new methodology to experimentally determine these capacitances and also evaluates the effects of electromagnetic interference on the motors in common mode. The proposed procedures to the development of this new methodology consists in: a) identification of the motor equivalent electrical circuit parameters through characteristic tests performed in the laboratory; b) to set up configurations between PWM inverter and the motor for voltage and current measurements: common mode and shaft voltages, leakage and shaft (bearing) currents by using a dedicated measuring circuit; c) to calculate the parasitic capacitance values between stator and frame, stator and rotor, rotor and frame and bearings of the motor using the capacitance characteristic equation; d) use the dedicated software Pspice to simulate the system composed by the three-phase induction motor fed by PWM inverter with the equivalent electrical circuit parameters; e) to determine the characteristic waveforms involved in the common mode phenomenon.
