AC MOTOR IS AN ELECTRIC
MOTOR DRIVEN BY AN ALTERNATING
CURRENT (AC).
THE AC MOTOR COMMONLY CONSISTS OF TWO BASIC PARTS,
• Rotar
• and an inside rotor attached to the output
shaft producing a second rotating
magnetic field.
(i) Synchronous motor
Synchronous motor: Stator has axial slots which consist stator winding wound for a specific
number of poles. Generally a salient pole rotor is used on which rotor winding is mounted.
Rotor winding is fed with a DC supply with the help of slip rings.
(ii) Asynchronous motor.
N = Ns = 120f/P
Where,
Ns = Synchronous speed, in revolutions per minute
F = AC power frequency
p = Number of poles per phase winding
called as slip.
• Ex.2 A three phase induction motor is wound for 4 pole and is supplied from 50Hz
supply system. Calculate the synchronous speed & the speed of motor when slip is
4%?
• Ex.3 A three phase, 6 pole 50Hz induction motor runs at 900 r.p.m. Determine
synchronous speed, %slip & frequency induced in rotor.
Solutions
• Ex1
1) TO FIND P FOR F= 60HZ
Ns = 120 f/P
P = 120 f/Ns
= 120*60/700
= 10 3) P = 8
• Ex 2
1. Synchronous speed:
Ns = 120f/P
= 120*50/4
= 1500rpm
Hence N = (1-s)Ns
= (1-0.04)*1500
= 1440rpm
Solutions
• Ex.3
1) Synchronous speed Ns
Ns = 120f1/P
= 120*50/6
= 1000 r.p.m
2) Percent slip
%S = Ns – N / Ns
= 1000- 900/1000 X 100
= 10%
3) Frequency of rotor induced emf
F2= S*F1
= 0.1*50
= 5Hz
Numerical
• Ex.4 A 4 pole, 3 phase, 50Hz induction motor runs at 1440 r.p.m. calculate the
synchronous speed. When it will have unity slip?
• Ex. 5 Define the term slip of an induction motor. A 50Hz, 4 pole, 3 phase induction
motor has a rotor current of frequency 2Hz. Calculate
1. slip
2. speed of motor
• Ex. 6 A three phase motor is wound for 4 pole and is supplied from 50Hz supply.
Calculate the synchronous speed and speed of motor, ifslip is 4%. What will be the
value of % slip if motor runs at speed of 1470rpm? Find the frequency of rotor
induced emf in these case.
Torque
i.e φ ∝ E1
We know that transformation ratio K is defined as the ratio of secondary voltage (rotor
voltage) to that of primary voltage (stator voltage).
• Rotor current I2 is defined as the ratio of rotor induced emf under running condition
sE2to total impedance Z2 of rotor side.
• The expression of actual speed of three phase induction motor is given by,
N = Ns(1 - s)
N = Actual speed
Ns= synchronous speed
S = slip
Another way to change the speed is to change the torque torque produced by motor
which is given by.
Torque Slip Characteristics of Three Phase
Induction Motor
• The torque slip curve for an induction motor
gives us the information about the variation of
torque with the slip.
• Slip?
• Relation of torque with change in slip or
change in speed.
The torque-slip characteristic curve can be divided roughly into
three regions:
N = Ns(1 - s)
However, this method is not widely used. It may be used where, the
induction motor is supplied by a dedicated generator (so that
frequency can be easily varied by changing the speed of prime
mover).
Constant V/F Control
But only change in f1, keeping v1 constant has an adverse effect on the air gap flux .
Core saturation .
Hence the ratio of v1/f1 is kept constant by changing the stator voltage v1and frequency
F1 simultaneously. This is necessary to kept air gap flux constant.
Disadvantages
• Control circuit is compilcated.
