The data presented in this article contains the key operational parameters of a TPIM as the supply voltage is varied from the balanced state to unbalance conditions (0%–5% unbalance) with reference to the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) definition of voltage unbalance [8]. Table 1, Table 2, Table 3, Table 4, Table 5, …
For example, voltage unbalance of 1% at the terminals of a fully loaded motor can result in phase current unbalance of 6-10%. This raises the operating temperature of the motor, which reduces its energy efficiency and shortens its life.
The voltage unbalance is a major concern for an induction motor because it can lead to high current and power oscillations at twice the fundamental frequency …
The simulation environment was configured to replicate the realistic operational conditions of a three-phase induction motor. Voltage unbalance was introduced by applying 10 % and 20 % overvoltages to phase A of the power supply. ... The ripple effects of these torque variations also affect the system's energy efficiency. …
Heating and losses of induction motor (IM) grow with the supply voltage unbalance and harmonic distortion. To avoid thermal overload, the IEEE 141-1993, the IEEE 3004.8, NEMA MG1-2014, and the IEC 60034-26 standards establish derating factors for IMs operating under those conditions. In this article, we show that while the derating …
The adverse effects of voltage unbalance in Induction motors are Over heating, line-current unbalance, derating, torque pulsation, and inefficiency. The overheating leads to winding insulation ...
Small efficiency improvement in induction motors (IMs) often lead to large monetary savings over time. These monetary savings justify the current movement toward the use of higher efficiency IMs.
In addition, the large unbalance of the motor currents will result in nonuniform temperatures in the motor windings. An example of the effect of unbalanced voltages on performance is illustrated in Table 1 for a 5-hp, 1725-rpm, 230-V, three-phase, 60-Hz motor.

Small efficiency improvement in induction motors (IMs) often lead to large monetary savings over time. These monetary savings justify the current movement toward the use of higher efficiency IMs. In many cases, replacing a standard efficiency IM with a higher efficiency one is transparent to the user. In other cases, however, there are side …

This study utilises the power unbalance factors (PUFs) to determine the output precisely of the induction motor (IM) subjected to unbalanced supply voltage, and use them to analyse motor performance [i.e. copper losses, motor efficiency, power factor, input active and reactive powers, electromagnetic torque and derating factor (DF)].

Such voltage disturbances have severe impacts on the efficiency of an induction motor. When the terminal voltage is unbalanced and distorted, the loss characteristic of the induction motor will become more complex. And the accurate analysis of motor losses is essential for the countermeasures of reducing loss and improving …
The motor efficiency is higher in over-voltage than under-voltage condition for fixed value of K v. This observation is in tune with . The similar observation can be made for speed, i.e., higher speed in over-voltage than under-voltage condition. ...

A 2.5% unbalance will reduce motor efficiency at full load operation. By regularly monitoring the voltages at the motor terminal and through regular thermographic inspections of motors, voltage unbalances may be identified. It is also recommended to verify that single-phase loads are uniformly distributed and to install ground fault …
For optimum motor performance, the phase voltages should be equal or very close to equal. Besides causing poor motor performance, voltage unbalance shortens a motor's life. Voltage unbalance is 100 times the maximum voltage variation from average divided by the average voltage of the three phases.
Studies on voltage unbalance have revealed its detrimental effects on the operation of three-phase induction motors (TPIM) due to the production of negative-sequence current and torque. Voltage unbalance has been defined in different ways over the years, and each of these definitions is limited in scope in one form or the order, e.g. …
