Abstract

See full text

A motor monitoring system includes a motor unit, a plurality of sensors, and a motor controller. The motor unit includes a motor housing and a motor arranged within the motor housing. The motor includes a stator with a plurality of stator poles each having a corresponding phase coil. The plurality of sensors are arranged within the motor housing and are configured to: measure a first characteristic related to partial discharges that occur at one or more phase coils, and generate sensor data based on the measured first characteristic. The motor controller is configured to generate a plurality of pulse width modulation (PWM) control signals for controlling phase voltages of the motor, detect the partial discharges at at least one of the phase coils based on the sensor data, and adjust at least one PWM control signal of the plurality of PWM control signals based on the detected partial discharges.
