An influence of the chosen sensors faults to the performance of the vector controlled induction motor drive system

In the paper the influence of the chosen sensors faults (rotor speed and stator current sensors) to the properties of induction motor drive system working in the Direct Field Oriented Control structure (DFOC) were tested. Simulations results carried out in Matlab/SimPowerSystem software. Study results contains an analysis of the state variables such as: mechanical and estimated speed, electromagnetic torque, stator's phase currents and rotor flux. Additionally the usage of these signals to develop faults detection algorithms were tested.
