Semiconductor Converter Controlled Drives: These are now widely used both in ac and dc tractions involving dc and ac motors, and the conventional drives have all become outdated, and will…
Switched Reluctance Motor: The switched reluctance motor (SRM) has both salient pole stator and rotor, like variable stepper motor, but they are designed for different applications, and therefore, with different…
Drive Circuits for Stepper Motor: A Drive Circuits for Stepper Motor is usually driven from a low voltage dc source. When a phase is to be energised, the dc source…
Variable Frequency Control of Multiple Synchronous Motors: A drive operating in true Variable Frequency Control of Multiple Synchronous Motors is shown in Fig. 7.9. Frequency command f* is applied to…
Operation of Synchronous Motor: Operation of Synchronous Motor - For any speed other than synchronous speed, the relative speed between air gap flux wave and the rotor is not zero.…
Synchronous Motors Types: Commonly used Synchronous Motors Types are: wound field, permanent magnet, synchronous reluctance and hysteresis motors. All these motors have a stator with a 3-phase winding, which is…
Braking of Single Phase Induction Motor: These motors can be braked by dc dynamic and plugging. The Braking of Single Phase Induction Motor are DC Dynamic Braking: It is commonly used…
Single Phase Induction Motor Types: Single Phase Induction Motor Types - As far as normal running is concerned, a single winding is sufficient. But all motors must be self start.…
