Abstract
The performance of a three phase induction motor fed by an unbalanced voltage supply has been
investigated in this thesis. Voltage unbalance which is a common and global phenomenon is
found to be very effective in deteriorating the performance of induction machines. Symmetrical
component approach is adopted to estimate the performance of a three-phase induction motor
operating with unbalanced supply system. Further MATLAB software has been used for
simulation purpose. A new approach is proposed to rerate the motor operating with voltage
unbalance. With the aid of analytical and mat lab results, variation of stator current ,positive
sequence, Voltage, Negative sequence voltage, unbalancing factor, motor efficiency, power
factor, and rotor current have been investigated under various steady state unbalanced voltage
conditions.

CHAPTER 1

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1. Background of the study


Induction motor is an important class of electric machines which is widely used in

industrial, commercial and domestic applications. Due to its simple, rugged and inexpensive

construction, reduced maintenance, and excellent operating characteristics induction motors

become very popular in industrial uses. As rough estimate nearly 80% of world industrial motors

are poly-phase phase induction motors. Three phase induction motors are designed and

manufactured such that all three phase windings are carefully balanced with respect to number of

turns, placement of winding and resistance to operate with balanced supply.

Voltage unbalance which is a common phenomenon is observed almost everywhere in a

three phase system across the world. Although three phase voltage supply is quite balanced in

both magnitude and displacement at the generation and transmission levels. It exits at utilization

end due to unequal load distribution, incomplete transportation of transmission lines, defective

transformers, blown fuses of three phase capacitor bank and so on. Strictly speaking voltage

unbalance can be considered as an irregularity of power supply system.

The influence of unbalanced voltages on the performance of motor was first studied by
Reed and Koppman in 1936 [3]. Further in 1956 Williams [4] proved that an induction motor
operation with unbalanced voltage is undesirable. Studies conducted by Gafford [1] come up in
1959 concerning temperature rise of an induction motor and it was pointed out that due to this
overheating premature ageing of insulation takes place and the life of motor is reduced. In 1963
Berndt et al[12] presented a method for derating of an induction motor operating with unbalance
supply. In 1975 R. F. Woll [15] provided a simple and brief method in order to study the impact

of unbalanced voltages on the losses and its negative effects on the insulating material of
induction motor. In 1985 Cummings [2] study provided methods for protection of the motor and
adjusting the relays settings against unbalance. It was observed that most of the research was
focused on voltage unbalance caused by under voltage unbalance. In fact, over-voltage
unbalance often occurs in off-peak periods in several countries. Further the impact of voltage
unbalance on the performance has been described qualitatively, not quantitatively or
numerically. Kersting [17] has discussed the effect of 0-5% unbalance on the losses of induction
motor. In 2000 Wang [19] studied the influence of voltage unbalance upon the study state
performance of an induction motor analytically. It has been shown that voltage unbalance may
cause the motor line currents to be very unbalanced. In 2001 Wang [20] evaluated the effects of
voltage unbalance on induction motor by using complex voltage unbalance factor (CVUF) that
consist magnitude as well as angle to fully describe the voltage unbalance phenomenon. In 2002
Pillay and Hafmann [13] had examined the derating of an induction machine when supplied by
unbalanced voltages in combinations with over- and undervoltages by using electrical and
thermal model. They concluded that the difference in definitions do not result in significant
difference when operated by unbalanced supplies in the 5% range. In 2004 Faiz et al [6]
analyzed the different definitions given by standards and suggested that the available definitions
of voltage unbalance are not comprehensive and complete, therefore the results by these
definitions are not reliable. In 2005 Faiz et al [5] proposed that inclusion of phase angle in
addition to voltage unbalance factor (VUF) give more accurate result. He introduced a method to
determine the derating factor precisely using the complex unbalance factor (CVUF), in order to
evaluate this factor, the machine is loaded such that the current do not exceed the rated value,
derating factor is then computed as the ratio of the machine output power under balanced supply
conditions to that under balanced condition. In 2006 Faiz et al [7] investigated that, for the same
voltage unbalance, derated motor may have higher efficiency than non-rated motor.

1.2 Three-Phase Induction Motors


The three-phase induction motor, also called an asynchronous motor, is the most commonly used
type of motor in industrial applications. In particular, the squirrel-cage design is the most widely
used electric motor in industrial applications.

1.2.1 Principles of Operation induction motor


The electrical section of the three-phase induction motor consists of the fixed stator or frame, a
three-phase winding supplied from the three-phase mains and a turning rotor. There is no
electrical connection between the stator and the rotor. The currents in the rotor are induced via
the air gap from the stator side. Stator and rotor are made of highly magnetizable core sheet
providing low eddy current and hysteresis losses.

1.2.2 Stator
The stator winding consists of three individual windings which overlap one another and are
offset by an electrical angle of 120°. When it is connected to the power supply, the incoming
current will first magnetize the stator. This magnetizing current generates a rotary field which
turns with synchronous speed for the smallest pole in a 50 Hz circuit the highest synchronous
speed.

Figure 1 Stator diagram

1.2.3 Rotor
The rotor in induction machines with squirrel-cage rotors consists of a slotted cylindrical rotor
core sheet package with aluminum bars which are joined at the front by rings to form a closed
cage .The rotor of three-phase induction motors sometimes is also referred to as an anchor. The
reason for this name is the anchor shape of the rotors used in very early electrical devices. In
electrical equipment the anchor's winding would be induced by the magnetic field, whereas the
rotor takes this role in three-phase induction motors.

1.3. Problem statement


The unbalanced voltage gives a bad influence for the power quality. If the unbalanced power is
applied to the electric apparatuses, it gives a difficult problem to them, especially the electric
motors. The large unbalanced current makes difficult problems in induction motor applications,
such as a heat problem, increases of losses, vibrations, and acoustic noises, shortening of the life,
a decrease of the rotating torque and it has been shown that voltage unbalance may cause the
motor line currents to be very unbalanced.

Induction motor operation with unbalanced voltage is undesirable and it increase temperature
rise of an induction motor and it was pointed out that due to this overheating armature ageing of
insulation takes place and the life of motor is reduced.

1.4. Objective of the study


To evaluate the effects of voltage unbalance on induction motor by using complex voltage
unbalance factor (CVUF) that consist magnitude as well as angle to fully describe the voltage
unbalance phenomenon.

To examine the rating of an induction machine when supplied by unbalanced voltages in


combinations with over- and under voltages.

To propose that inclusion of phase angle in addition to voltage unbalance factor (VUF) give
more accurate result.

To investigate the same voltage unbalance, rated motor may have higher efficiency than non-
rated motor

2. LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 Relevant studies

relays settings against unbalance. It was observed that most of the research was focused on
voltage unbalance caused by Under voltage unbalance. In fact, over-voltage unbalance often

motor when are submitted a voltage unbalanced. These variables are related with positive and
negative sequence of voltage, and Voltage Unbalance Factor.

Present paper describes the approach based upon symmetrical component theory to analyze the
operation of 3-phase induction motor, operating with unbalanced supply system. MATLAB
software is used for analyzing under such operations. A new proposal has been suggested for
rerating of induction motor.

2.2 Analysis of machine under unbalance conditions


In previous paper, performance of a three-phase induction motor under unbalanced voltage

imposed by power system grid is studied. The phase currents, the deliverable power to the motor,

stator current and efficiency of the motor are propose. In fact, influence of power system and its

unbalances on the motor itself are investigated. In order to analyze the performance of a three

phase induction motor, symmetrical components analysis is normally used. In this method,

positive and negative sequence equivalent circuits are utilized to calculate different parameters of

the machine under unbalanced voltage operation. A Y-connected, 20HP (15Kw), 380V three-

phase squirrel-cage induction motor has been used for performance analysis of a motor under

unbalanced voltage operation.

2.3 Voltage Unbalance


Voltage unbalance is the non-equality of voltage magnitudes and /or voltage angles among
the three-phases at any given point of time, mainly due to the unequal distribution of single-

phase loads, asymmetry of line and transformer winding impedances, time varying operation of
single-phase loads, traction loads, blown out fuses on three-phase capacitor banks, adjustable
speed drives operations etc.
The most important reason for voltage unbalance is a mismatch of reactive power demand
between the industrial utilities and the generating stations. Due to varying operating times of
single-phase and three-phase loads, there exists definite possibility of voltage variations above
and below the rated value, in both balanced and unbalanced form. Thus, voltage variation and
unbalance can be classified into overvoltage unbalance (OVU), and under voltage unbalance
(UVU). OVU is the condition wherein the three phase voltages are not equal to each other, in
addition the positive sequence component of the voltage is greater than the rated voltage value
while UVU is the condition wherein the three phase voltages are not equal to each other, in
addition the positive sequence component of the voltage is lesser than the rated voltage value.
There is a very less possibility that all three-phase voltages remain constant at all times, hence
the analysis carried out in this paper is limited to OVU and UVU cases for phase voltage
unbalance, phase angle unbalance and both phase voltage and angle unbalance.

2.4 Causes of Unbalanced Voltages


Some of the more common causes of unbalanced voltages are:
1. Unbalanced incoming utility supply
2. Unequal transformer tap settings
3. Large single phase distribution transformer on the system
4. Open phase on the primary of a 3 phase transformer on the distribution system
5. Faults or grounds in the power transformer
6. Open delta connected transformer banks
7. A blown fuse on a 3 phase bank of power factor improvement capacitors
8. Unequal impedance in conductors of power supply wiring
9. Unbalanced distribution of single phase loads such as lighting
10. Heavy reactive single phase loads such as welders

2.5 Types of voltage unbalance


There are many unbalanced voltages possible with the same voltage unbalance factor (VUF)
cases:

2.5.1. Single phase Under-voltage unbalance:


This type of situation arises when there a large single phase load in the system and it doesn't
have enough compensation. In this situation the voltage in that particular phase will be lower
than the other two phases.

2.5.2. Two phases Under-voltage unbalance:


This type of situation arises when two of the three phases have heavy load and don't have enough
compensation. In this situation those two phases will have higher voltage drop than the third
phase.

2.5.3. Three phases Under-voltage unbalance:


This type of situation arises when the loads of three phases are all too heavy and not balanced
In this situation the three phases under-voltage unbalance will

2.5.4. Single phase Over-voltage unbalance:


Capacitors are normally used to compensate system reactive power. In order to maintain a
system voltage at rated value, if one of the three phase voltages has been over-compensated, the
voltage of this phase will he higher than the rated value, the single phase over-voltage unbalance
occurs.

2.5.5. Two phases over-voltage unbalance:


If two of the three phases have been over compensated, then the voltages of these two phases
will be higher than the rated value. This situation arises in a two phases over- voltage unbalance
situation.

2.5.6. Three phases over-voltage unbalance:


If the three-phase voltages are over-compensated to different degrees, then all these three phases
voltages will be higher than the rated value and not equal. This type of situation usually occurs at
the lime when a factory is shut own but capacitors are still connected to the system.

2.6 Single Phasing


Single-phasing is a term attributed to a condition where one phase of a three-phase system is opened
either on the source side or load side. The loss of a phase could be caused by, among other things, a
blown fuse, damaged switchgear, bad contact, open cable, bad cable terminal lug, etc. With respect to
the transformer that feeds the load, two types of single phasing can be distinguished –primary and
secondary single-phasing, with the latter presenting a more severe condition in terms of the high
currents that flow through the motor load. In general, the loss of a phase in a three phase system is an
extreme form of voltage unbalance.

2.7. Derating
It has been suggested that when motors are operating under unbalanced conditions, they must be
derated in order to mitigate the undesirable effects. Several other approaches for derating have
been suggested, including derating based on current, loss, heating. The two main practically
useful approaches for derating are current approach and horsepower approach. In the current
approach, a limit is placed on the full load current, while in the horsepower approach, a
limit is placed on the horse power During the voltage unbalance tests, current based
derating was investigated. The motor load was reduced to ensure that the unbalance did not
result in current in any phase that exceeded the rated full load amperes (FLA). The ratio of the
resulting shaft horsepower to the nominal is considered as the derating factor. motor derating
with a limit on motor amperage and the NEMA derating curve side by side the derating with
a limit on motor amperage results in a lower curve than the NEMA curve and is linear from
zero to five percentage unbalance. With the motor amps limited to the nominal current, the motor
efficiency is slightly higher than it would have been without a limit imposed on the motor
amps. The slight increase in efficiency may be explained by the absence of the additional
overheating produced in the phases with excessive currents created by the unbalance.

The two general definitions for voltage unbalance as describe are;


I. NEMA or IEEE DEFINATION
The voltage unbalance percentage (VUP) at the terminal of a machine as given by the
National Electrical Manufacturer Association Motor and Generator Standard (NEMA MGI) used
in most studies is:

%VUP *100% …… (a)

II. IEC or SYMMETRICAL COMPONENT DEFINATION

The voltage unbalance factor (VUF) is defined by International Electro technical Commission
(IEC) as the ratio of negative-sequence voltage component to the positive-sequence voltage
component.

%VUF ......(b)

In this thesis inorder to analyze the performance of induction motor we have used that the IEC or
SYMMETRICAL COMPONENT DEFINATION which is known as the exact definition of
voltage unbalance.

3.2 Analysis of Induction motor under unbalanced conditions


In this paper, performance of a three-phase induction motor under unbalanced voltage
imposed by power system grid is studied. The phase currents, the deliverable power to the motor,
stator current, torque, positive and negative sequence voltage components, the power losses, and
efficiency of the motor are proposed. In fact, influence of power system and its unbalances on
the motor itself are investigated. In order to analyze the performance of a three phase induction
motor, symmetrical components analysis is normally used. In this method, positive and negative
sequence equivalent circuits, as shown in Fig. 4 (a) and (b) are utilized to calculate different
parameters of the machine under unbalanced voltage operation. A Y connected, 10HP (7.5kW),
400/230V three-phase squirrel-cage induction motor has been used for performance analysis of a
motor under unbalanced voltage operation.

3.2.1 Steady State Analysis


The ill effects of the unbalance voltage on the IM stem from the fact that the unbalance
voltage breaks down in positive and negative sequence components of voltage. The negative
sequence component of voltage produces an air gap flux rotating against the rotation of rotor and
thus generated unwanted negative torque. This result in torque pulsation, speed reduction,
increases in machine loss, derating of the machine etc. Additionally due to small value of
negative sequence impedance, negative sequence voltage generates large negative sequence
current and consequently increases of motor losses and reduction in motor life.
Steady state analysis of an induction motor operating with unbalanced voltage supply is
possible using symmetrical component approach. This requires the development of positive- and
negative-sequence equivalent circuit representation as shown in Fig .3(a) and (b).

3.3 Rerating Of Motor


In order to maintain the temperature/heating of the motor under unbalanced operation, William
[2] developed the following expression for rerating;

Rerating=√ …………………..(19)

Where ‟Ir is rated current of the motor.

However it has been felt that the motor losses which are primarily responsible for overheating

must be maintained corresponding to full load operation under with balanced supply system.

Further using equations (1) to (19), for a known value of Vp and Vn (i.e. for given voltage
unbalance), total losses of the machine and torque developed may be represented as a function of
operating slip as;

Losses=function (slip) ……………………(20)

Torque=function (slip) ……………………(21)

Equation (20) gives the value of operating slip to maintain the full load losses and this may be
used in (21) to estimate the rerated torque. This approach as proposed may be helpful to control
the heating of motor.

4.1.2 Unbalance in the voltage magnitude for OVU condition


Unbalance in the voltage magnitude is the condition wherein the three phase voltages are not
equal to each other; in addition the positive sequence component of the voltage is less than the
rated voltage value. And here is the phase angles are kept balanced.

4.2.1 Both under voltage and magnitude unbalance


Unbalance in the voltage magnitude is the condition wherein the three phase voltages are not
equal to each other; in addition the positive sequence component of the voltage is greater than or
less than the rated voltage value for both OVU and UVU condition respectively. But the phase
angles are kept balanced.

CHAPTER 5

5. CONCLUSION AND FEATURE WORK


5.1 Conclusion

In this thesis an attempt has been made to analyze and control the operation of three-phase
induction motor operating with unbalanced supply system. For the first time MATLAB based
programming used to estimate the steady state performance of motor. Both „under voltage
unbalance‟ as well as „over voltage unbalance‟ have been considered for analysis purpose. A
new approach has been proposed and adopted for rerating of the motor and is found to be
effective to control the excessive heating of the motor operating with unbalanced supply system.
A new comprehensive and generalized procedure is presented to predict the steady-state
performance of three phase motors under unbalanced conditions focusing on the efficiency,
stator currents, torque, power loss and power factor. This prediction could make the control
system of induction motor especially appropriate to prevent damages in high-power machines. It
is well known that voltage unbalance causes extra loads to the utilities and additional charges to
consumers. Also it can be seen that efficiency of the motor under three-phase unbalanced voltage
is lower than the efficiency at normal condition. The maximum amplitude of the current and
torque are significantly increased by decreasing the voltage unbalanced factor. As the
unbalancing in the voltage source can cause excessive losses, heating, noise, vibration, torsional
pulsations, slip, and motor accelerating torque, detecting of unbalancing in the voltage applied is
important. In the case of unbalanced voltages the efficiency and average output torque of the
motor would decrease and the ripple would increase significantly destructing the motor
application.
5.2 Future Work
In this thesis we try to analysis the performance and effects of unbalance voltage on the
induction motor .Following work may be carried out in future
1. Performance evaluation of actual machine under unbalance voltage conditions.
2. Implementation of voltage unbalancing factor in protection and control circuit design of
induction motor.
3. Prevention and mitigation schemes for voltage unbalancing.
