Oscillation Studies on Replacement of Phase–Wound
Often is the notion to replace the SemiAutogenous (SAG) mill drive phasewound induction motor with an equivalent synchronous motor. This paper evaluated the correctness or otherwise of the motor replacement from the point of view of oscillations. The SAG mill drive motor was modelled and simulated using Matlab/Simulink software to ascertain the level of oscillation at start and in running
