Copper losses occur due to the resistance of the winding and vary with current. We need to calculate the copper losse

Full Load Current (I_FL) = 22.73 A

No Load Current (I_NL) = 11.68 A
Cold Resistance = 63.195 mΩ = 0.063195 Ω (at 100°C)

Since the resistance given is at 100°C, we’ll use this value for the full load calculation.

Copper Loss at Full Load:

Copper LossFL​=IFL2​×Rcold​Copper LossFL=32.5 W

Copper Loss at No Load:

Copper LossNL=INL2×Rcold=8.64 W

Core Losses:

Core losses (iron losses) can be estimated as the difference between no load power input and copper losses at no load

Core Loss=No Load Power Input−Copper Loss=807.36 W

2. Calculate Total Losses at Full Load:

Total losses at full load include both copper losses and core losses.

Total Losses=Copper LossFL+Core Loss =32.5 W+807.36 W≈839.86 W

3. Calculate Efficiency:

Efficiency is calculated using the following formula:

Efficiency(%)=Output Power/Input Power×100

Input Power at Full Load:
Input Power=Full Load Power+Total Losses =6269 W+839.86=7108.86 W

Efficiency Calculation:

Efficiency(%)=6269 W/7108.86 W×100 = 88.2%

What is FMEA in AC motor

FMEA, or Failure Modes and Effects Analysis, is a systematic method used to identify and analyze
potential failure modes within a system, such as an AC motor, and assess their effects on the
system's operation. In the context of an AC motor, FMEA involves the following steps:

1. Identify Failure Modes: Determine all possible ways the AC motor could fail. This could include
issues such as electrical faults, mechanical failures, overheating, or lubrication problems.

2. Assess Effects: For each identified failure mode, evaluate the potential consequences on the
motor’s operation. For instance, a bearing failure might lead to increased friction and eventual
motor damage.

3. Determine Causes: Identify the root causes of each failure mode. This could involve inspecting
design flaws, manufacturing defects, or operational factors like improper maintenance.

4. Evaluate Severity, Occurrence, and Detection: Assign scores to each failure mode based on:

Severity: The impact of the failure on motor operation and safety.

Occurrence: The likelihood of the failure happening.

Detection: The ability to detect the failure before it causes significant issues.

5. Calculate Risk Priority Number (RPN): Use the scores from the previous step to calculate the RPN
for each failure mode. The RPN helps prioritize which failure modes need more attention based on
their risk.

6. Develop Actions: Based on the RPN, develop and implement actions to mitigate the most critical
failure modes. This might involve redesigning components, improving maintenance procedures, or
enhancing monitoring systems.

7. Review and Update: Continuously review and update the FMEA as new failure modes are
discovered or changes are made to the motor system.

Applying FMEA to AC motors helps in improving reliability, enhancing safety, and reducing
downtime by proactively addressing potential issues before they lead to significant problems.
