Introduction:
In some countries nearly 65% of the total electric
energy produced is consumed by electric motors.
• Small
• Efficient
• Flexible
Components in electric drives
Motors
• DC motors - permanent magnet – wound field
• AC motors – induction, synchronous , brushless DC
Power sources
• DC – batteries, fuel cell, photovoltaic - unregulated
• AC – Single- three- phase utility, wind generator -
unregulated
• DC drives can be classified, in general, into three types:
1. Single-phase drives
2. Three-phase drives
– ac voltage controllers,
– pulse-width modulation (PWM) inverters
