Magnetic field measurement
Abstract
This paper describes a system to measure and analyse magnetic flux in the gap of an electric machine. Our research group has contributed to new monitoring systems in the past. With these new instruments, we have been able to determine that some machines still show strong vibrations without any rotor/stator deformations. Magnetic unbalance is suspected, but can not be measured while the generator is operating. The following paper describes a sure way to do so, the preliminary results and the future goals.
