Inverter open circuit faults diagnosis in series-connected six-phases permanent magnet drive

This paper deals with the fault effects analysis and diagnosis in 6-Φ PMSM designed for aerospace applications. The addressed work aims to analyze the features offered by the space vector theory applied to these systems for fault detection and identification purposes. The paper starts with a presentation of the overall electric drive system structure and its control. Then, fault effects analysis under faulty operation mode of the 6-leg voltage source inverter is presented considering the space vector theory. Based on such analysis, an accurate FDI process is designed for these applications. All results are verified analytically and through simulation software using Matlab/Simulink.
