A three-phase Induction Motor is Self Starting. When the supply is connected to the stator of a three-phase induction motor, a rotating magnetic field is produced, and the rotor begins rotating and the induction motor starts. At the time of starting, the motor slip is unity, and the starting current is very large. The purpose …
The AC Motor and the DC Motor are differentiated on the various factors like the source or the nature of the power used in the motor. The commutation process, types, starting of the motor, a number of terminals. Applications of the motor, usage of brushes, and the maintenance cost of the motor. Content: AC Vs …
An Autotransformer Starter is suitable for both star and delta connected motors. In this method, the starting current is limited by using a three-phase autotransformer to reduce the initial stator applied voltage. The figure below shows the motor with the autotransformer starter: It is provided with a number of tappings. The starter is connected to …
The Star Delta Starter is a very common type of starter and is used extensively as compared to the other type of starting methods of the induction motor. A star delta is used for a cage motor designed to run normally on the delta-connected stator winding. The connection of a three-phase induction motor with a …
The Torque Slip Characteristic is represented by a rectangular hyperbola. For the immediate value of the slip, the graph changes from one form to the other. Thus, it passes through the point of maximum torque when R2 = sX20. The maximum torque developed in an induction motor is called the Pull Out Torque or the …

Torque Speed Characteristic is the curve plotted between the torque and the speed of the induction motor. We have already discussed the torque of the induction motor in the topic Torque Equation of an Induction motor. The equation of the torque is given as shown below: At the maximum torque, the speed of the rotor …

Direct On Line Starter method is a common method of starting of Cage Induction Motor. The motor is connected through a starter across the full supply voltage. The Direct On Line Starter Method figure is shown below. It consists a coil operated contactor C controlled by start and stop push button as shown in the …
In the article named Torque Equation of an Induction motor, we have seen the developed torque and its equation. Here, the Maximum Torque Condition of an induction motor is discussed. The torque produced in the induction motor mainly depends on the following three factors. They are the strength of the rotor current; the flux interacts …
The developed Torque or Induced Torque Equation in a machine is defined as the Torque generated by the electric to mechanical power conversion. The torque is also known as Electromagnetic Torque. This developed torque in the motor differs from the actual torque available at the terminals of the motor, which is almost equal to the friction …
The motor which works on the principle of electromagnetic induction is known as the induction motor. Electromagnetic induction is the phenomenon in which the electromotive force induces across the electrical conductor when it is placed in a rotating magnetic field. The stator and rotor are two essential parts of the motor. The stator is the …
