Demagnetization Severity Detection in Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors Based on Temperature Signal and...

To address the difficulty of detecting demagnetization severity in permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs), this paper proposes a demagnetization severity detection method based on temperature signal and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). First, the differences between local demagnetization and eccentricity fault in stator current harmonics are analyzed from an electromagnetic perspective, and fast Fourier transform (FFT) is used for frequency-domain analysis of the stator current to identify local demagnetization faults. On this basis, an electromagnetic-thermal coupling model is established by considering motor losses and heat dissipation boundary conditions to obtain the winding temperatures under different demagnetization severities and operating conditions. Furthermore, the temperature time series, together with speed and load torque, is constructed into a three-dimensional state space, and the proposed Conditionally Modulated Multi-Scale Convolutional Neural Network (CMSCNN) is introduced for feature learning to achieve demagnetization severity detection. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves an average detection accuracy of 98.06% on the simulation test set and outperforms the baseline CNN model. On measured data collected from the faulty prototype, the average detection accuracy reaches 93.34%, verifying the effectiveness of the proposed method for demagnetization severity detection.
