PMSM diagnostics and prognostics - Evaluation of an on-line method based on high frequency current response
This thesis covers and evaluates a stator insulation fault detection method for Permanent Magnetised Synchronous Machines (PMSMs). The method could be implemented on-line and is based on using the power converter in an electric or hybrid vehicle to measure the State of Health (SoH) of the stator insulation of the PMSM. This is done through measurements of the high frequency current response that o
