RMF(Rotating Magnetic Field) -Analogy with DC machines The salient field structure in DC machines is mimicked along with speed in an AC machines by a multiphase (2 or more) winding. The number of poles are determined by winding distribution and is independent of the number of phases. The rotational speed is determined by the supply frequency and the number of poles, such that an observer in air-gap counts same number of poles per second, meaning the more the number of poles the slower the machine will run and vice-versa. induction motor
Induction Motor • Most popular motor today in the low and medium horsepower range • Very robust in construction • Speed easily controllable using V/f or Field Oriented Controllers • Have replaced DC Motors in areas where traditional DC Motors • cannot be used such as mining or explosive environments • Of two types depending on motor construction: Squirrel Cage • or Slip Ring • Only Disadvantage: Most of them run with a lagging power factor induction motor
Squirrel Cage Rotor induction motor
Slip Ring Rotor • The rotor contains windings similar to stator. • The connections from rotor are brought out using slip rings that • are rotating with the rotor and carbon brushes that are static. induction motor
Torque Production in an Induction Motor • In a conventional DC machine field is stationary and the current carrying conductors rotate. • We can obtain similar results if we make field structure rotating and current carrying conductor stationary. • In an induction motor the conventional 3-phase winding sets up the rotating magnetic field(RMF) and the rotor carries the current carrying conductors. • An EMF and hence current is induced in the rotor due to the speed difference between the RMF and the rotor, similar to that in a DC motor. • This current produces a torque such that the speed difference between the RMF and rotor is reduced. induction motor
Slip in Induction Motor • However, this speed difference cannot become zero because that would stop generation of the torque producing current itself. • The parameter slip ‘s’ is a measure of this relative speed difference • where ns,s,f1 are the speeds of the RMF in RPM ,rad./sec and supply frequency respectively • n, are the speeds of the motor in RPM and rad./sec respectively • The angular slip frequency and the slip frequency at which voltage is induced in the rotor is given by induction motor

Approximate Equivalent Circuit j • Assumes negligible magnetizing current • Note Rc has been removed. • The sum of core losses and the windage and friction loses are treated • as constant. This is because as speed increases rotor core loss • decreases (lower f2) but windage and frictionloses increase.With • decrease of speed the converse is true. Thus the sum is constant at • any speed and is termed as rotational loss. induction motor
IEEE Equivalent Circuit • Assumes 30-50% magnetizing current and drop across R1+jX1 not • negligible • As before, the sum of core losses and the windage and friction loses are • treated as constant. induction motor
