In this article, a novel E/F control algorithm is proposed for the three-phase squirrel cage induction motor based on its rotor-flux-oriented model. The proposed scheme is meant for a ...

Come along as we take a behind-the-scenes tour at the iconic Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Somewhere in most engineering educations, there’s a class on induction motors. Students learn about shaded-pole motors, two-phase and three-phase motors, squirrel cage motors, and DC-excited … ...

Squirrel cage rotors are most commonly used with induction motors. Since these motors lack brushes, sparks are not created in the motor and so they can be used in hazardous conditions.

While this article focuses primarily on the electrical aspects of selecting a 3-phase squirrel cage induction motor (SCIM) replacement for a DC motor or an AC 3-phase synchronous or wound rotor ...

This future hybrid may be a squirrel-cage induction or synchronous reluctance design enhanced with permanent-magnet technology. This motor design could ultimately replace today’s induction ...

New energy-efficient motor technologies use a synchronous design, putting differences between asynchronous and synchronous motor designs in the spotlight.

History We trace the ac induction motor’s roots to its invention by Nikola Tesla in 1883 and Mikhail Dolivo-Dobrovolsky’s “squirrel cage” three-phase electrical motor in 1888.

An experimental method is presented for segregating the various no-load losses of a squirrel-cage induction motor. It is shown that for insulated rotor bars the losses consist principally of stator ...
