Six Phase Induction Motor Modelling For Submarine Application
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Electrical and Electronics Engineering) - Year 2018, Vol 13, Issue 1
Abstract
Research in electrical machine design is tilting towards multiphase systems, due its numerous advantages. As the quest for energy efficient systems increases, research in this regard also increases. Mostly in the area of energy conversion systems, notably, the induction machines with the attended high energy demand. An energy efficient motor will definitely reduce cost of industrial processes and save energy. Research reveals that multiphase motors are more economical, efficient and reliable than the traditional three phase motors. In locomotion and ship propulsion systems, multiphase machines are highly recommended because of their improved reliability and efficiency. Depending on the complexity of design, submarines sometimes may need more than one propulsion motor for different operations within the submarine power system network. Some of these submarines are used as warships; as such the designer’s interest is to reduce noise. In order to reduce machine noise, multiphase is proposed in this paper among other advantages comparing with three phase. This paper models a sixphase induction motor using state space method to develop models for simulation. Simulation in MATLAB environment carried transient stability studies. The single sixphase is cost effective, reliable and more efficient compared to the three phase machine.
