www.technologyfuturae.com Introduction • A large fraction of electrical energy consumed in many facilities is used to run electric motors. Nationally, motor driven systems account for about 57% of all electrical energy use. • The electric motor manufacturers are seeking methods for improving the motor efficiencies, which resulted in a new generation of electric motors that are known as energy efficient motors. • This paper deals with energy conservation by installing energy efficient motor (EEM) instead of standard efficiency motor.
www.technologyfuturae.com Energy efficient motors • It produces same shaft output power but uses less electrical input power than a standard efficiency motor. • Standard motor generally competes on price, not efficiency, but EEM competes on efficiency, not price. • Both single phase and three-phase motors available. • EEM are higher quality motors with longer warranty. • 20 year life span
www.technologyfuturae.com Eem specifications • to make it much easier for purchasers to identify energy efficient motors on the market. • motor efficiency classification labels – Eff1, Eff2 & Eff3. • The programme was implemented by a voluntary agreement between the Commission and the motor manufacturers to reduce sales of Eff3 motors by half.
www.technologyfuturae.com Motor losses & reduction Techniques
www.technologyfuturae.com • Core loss represents energy required to magnetize the core material (hysteresis) and includes losses due to creation of eddy currents that flow in the core. • Windage and friction losses occur due to bearing friction and air resistance. • Stator losses appear as heating due to current flow (I) through the resistance (R) of the stator winding. This is commonly referred to as an I2R loss. • Rotor losses appear as I2R heating in the rotor winding. • Stray load losses are the result of leakage fluxes induced by load currents.

www.technologyfuturae.com Differerent tests for analysing the performance • a) Temperature test: The motor is loaded and allowed to run until its temperature stabilizes. The temperature and winding resistances are recorded. • b) Load test: The motor is loaded at six different loading points ranging from 25%-150% of rated load. The stator and rotor copper losses are calculated from this. • c) No-load test: The motor is run at no-load with a varying supply. The friction & windage and core losses are calculated voltage between 125% to 20% of rated voltage from this.

www.technologyfuturae.com Constructional features of eef • rotor design - One major consideration in the design of high efficiency induction motors is to reduce rotor resistance. -efficiency can be achieved by substituting Aluminum with copper.
www.technologyfuturae.com Energy Efficient Machine Design by Proper Selection of Core Material • core loss in a machine is around 30~ 50% of the total losses. • reduction of core material thickness and stress relief annealing of the core improved machine efficiency .
www.technologyfuturae.com Efficiency Improvement by Insertion of Superconducting Materials • High temperature superconductors (HTS), which offered the advantage of cooling via liquid nitrogen instead of liquid helium. • complete elimination of refrigerator power consumption would only show an improvement in machine efficiency of ~0.02% for a 300 MVA rating. • Of more importance than the ef ficiency improvement is that use of a liquid nitrogen ambient would lead to reduced capital costs for the refrigeration plant and reduce the complexity of the cryogenic design.

www.technologyfuturae.com Power factor improvement in IM • Installing external capacitor • Avoid operation of equipment above its rated speed • Replacement of SM with EEF.
www.technologyfuturae.com How energy efficient motor differ from standard motor ???... • Higher quality and thinner steel laminations in the stator • More copper in the windings • Smaller air gap between the rotor and stator • Reduced fan losses • Closer machining tolerances • Generally, they cost 15 to 30 percent more than standard motors, depending on the specific motor, manufacturer, and market competition
www.technologyfuturae.com Eem recognition in indian scenario • Siemens India awarded prestigious “BEE Star” rating for their energy-efficient motors Siemens motors help customers minimize their energy consumption in production, thus significantly reducing their operating costs and the cost of ownership and bringing about a significant boost to productivity.
www.technologyfuturae.com Advantages: • - The EEM has a greater efficiency than a standard motors; therefore they have less operating costs. • - EEM has a lower slip so they have a higher speed than standard motors. • - EEM can reduce maintenance costs and improve operations in industry due to robustness and reliability. • - Increasing the productivity.
www.technologyfuturae.com Summary • Energy efficient motors, their specifications are discussed. • Constructional difference from standard motor & the method of achieving high efficiency is also discussed • Different test methods, operating & performance characteristics according to the test result are also discussed
