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 ...
The first thing you notice when you arrive at Indianapolis Motor Speedway is its size. Knowing that the track is two-and-a-half miles around isn’t enough to prepare you for how truly massive it is.
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 motors.
There are four major types of industrial motors: AC induction (also known as asynchronous) and AC synchronous motors, the most widely used, as well as DC synchronous motors and servo motors. Induction ...
For success in these cases, it is essential that the replacement motor provide the required performance — and do so reliably. While this article focuses primarily on the electrical aspects of ...
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 ...
