Review of the Parameter Estimation and Transient Analysis of Three-Phase Induction Motor

Abstract

Induction motor is the most abundantly utilized motor in the industry, and along these lines, the study and analysis of its transient performance has become a major area of interest. After the introduction of power electronic components, the modern equipment has started portraying nonlinear characteristic, especially under starting transients and unbalanced voltage conditions. Estimation of circuit parameters is necessary in order to improve the performance of induction motor drives. This paper aims to review and analyze different techniques investigated for the transient characteristics of a three-phase induction motor under varied conditions. Thus, this work gives an understanding on the different modeling techniques used to deduce the equivalent circuit parameters of induction motors.
