ABSTRACT:
A method for detecting a shorted turn in a synchronous machine having a rotor using a magnetic flux probe is disclose having the steps of: monitoring a signal from the flux probe during on-line operation of the machine; integrating the flux probe signal to generate a flux density data trace that repeats during each rotor revolution; upon detecting movement in the flux density zero-crossing, capturing the flux probe signal for a current rotor revolution for a variety of machine load conditions, and performing a shorted turn analysis with the captured flux signal data.
