Fractional Kilowatt Motors Articles: Single Phase Induction Motor: A Single Phase Induction Motor comprises a single-phase distributed winding on the stator and normal squirrel-cage rotor as shown schematically in Fig.…
Reversible Drives using Choppers: Using two quadrant choppers a reversible drive can be achieved, because this combination allows reversal of both current and voltage of the motor termiÂnals. We can…
Basic Elements of Electric Drive: Basic Elements of Electric Drive- Before discussion makes clear that an electric drive system basically consists of a mechanical load to which the required mechanical…
Tie Set Matrix(Link Currents): Tie Set Matrix - For a given tree of a graph, addition of each link between any two nodes forms a loop called the fundamental loop.…
Linear Variable Differential Transformer (LVDT): The differential transformer is a passive inductive transformer. It is also known as a Linear Variable Differential Transformer (LVDT). The basic construction is as shown…
Types of Strain Gauge Transducer: Types of Strain Gauge Transducer are three types, namely Wire Strain Gauge Foil Strain Gauge Semiconductor Strain Gauge Wire Strain Gauge: Wire Strain Gauge has…
AC Series Motor: A series motor can be run from either dc or ac (single-phase) supply provided that both stator and rotor cores are laminated to limit the iron-loss. Figure…
Separately Excited DC Motor for Dynamic Analysis: Separately Excited DC Motor for Dynamic Analysis - The DC machines are quite versatile and are capable of giving a variety of V-A…
