Electrical Drive Systems

4.1 Introduction
In electric drive systems, in order to determine the
appropriate motor power, the mechanical power
requirements of the industrial machine (load) must be
4.1 Introduction determined.
The power requirement of an industrial system is generally
determined with respect to its continuous operating
condition at constant velocity (steady-state operation).

In order to reduce the power requirement of the electric
Elevators motor, the counterweight is used.
At steady-state, the torque due to the difference between
the weight of the cage and the counterweight is covered
by the electric motor.
The value of the counterweight is determined depending on
the condition that the electric motor must be loaded
equally when the full cage is lifted and empty cage is
lowered.

For low-speed transportation systems, the air drag force is
small and can be neglected. In this case, the load torque
consists of the resisting forces depending on friction and
grading force.

grade resistance force as power for the vehicle traveling uphill at a grade of
