In the aerospace and military fields, with high reliability requirements, the dual-redundancy permanent magnet synchronous motor (DRPMSM) with weak thermal coupling and no electromagnetic coupling is needed. A common fault in the DRPMSM is the inter-turn short circuit fault (ISCF). However, research on how to diagnose ISCF and the set of faulty windings in the DRPMSM is lacking. In this paper, the structure of the DRPMSM is analyzed and mathematical models of the motor under normal and faulty conditions are established. Then an on-line ISCF detection scheme, which depends on the running modes of the DRPMSM and the average values for the difference of the d-axis voltages between two sets of windings in the latest 20 sampling periods, is proposed. The main contributions of this paper are to analyze the calculation for the inductance of each part of the stator windings and propose the on-line diagnosis method of the ISCF under various operating conditions. The simulation and experimental results show that the proposed method can quickly and effectively diagnose ISCF and determine the set of faulty windings of the DRPMSM.

The dual-redundancy permanent magnet synchronous motor (DRPMSM) has high reliability in its applications. Compared with the traditional permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM), small teeth were added to the stator in DRPMSM and its vibration has new characteristics. This paper derived the analytic expression of the radial electromagnetic force for PMSM in the air gap based on the Maxwell stress equation and summarized its sources. The simplified stator teeth model of the traditional PMSM and DRPMSM were established in 12-slot/10-pole (12s10p), and the analytical expression and Fourier expansion of radial electromagnetic force on the teeth were given. The electromagnetic and structural finite element models of the motor were established, and analyses of modal and harmonic response were carried out. The simulation results show that the stator vibration amplitude of DRPMSM is smaller than that of traditional PMSM at no-load and is also bigger under rated load. Furthermore, in order to guarantee the low amplitude of stator vibration under rated load for DRPMSM, the width of the small teeth should be smaller.
