Why slip ring induction motor is not started with its slip ring short circuited?
The rotor of the slip ring induction motor is connected to the external resistances. When the motor is started, the total external resistance gets added
Machines
An electrical machine converts mechanical energy into electrical energy or vice versa. The transformer is also an electrical machine which transform the voltage without changing the frequency. We will discuss about the;
- DC Motor
- DC generator
- Induction Motor
- Transformer
- Electrical drives
- Alternator or synchronous generator
Why the rotor winding of three phase wound rotor induction motor is star connected?
The stator can either have a star or delta connection. Many motors have a winding scheme and coils with six connections that connect the windings
PRD of Transformer|Pressure Relief Device for Transformer
Why Pressure Relief Device(PRD) for Oil Filled Transformer? The winding of the transformer is housed in the transformer oil tank. The oil is used in
Why does not Transformer Work with DC Supply?
This article describes why DC is not used in transformers. The transformer functions on the principle of Faraday’s Law of electromagnetic induction. When AC is
Why Induction Motor is called Rotating Transformer?
Induction motor as a rotating transformer: The rotor of the squirrel cage induction motor is short-circuited by end rings. When a three-phase supply is fed to
Why Induction Motor is called Asynchronous Motor?
An induction motor is called an asynchronous motor because the actual speed of the motor is not equal to the synchronous speed of the motor. The synchronous
Why the Slip never Zero in an Induction Motor?
A rotating magnetic field is produced when the three-phase supply is fed to the stator. The magnetic field travels the air gap length and cuts
What is Synchronous speed? Relationship between speed and Frequency
Synchronous Speed When three phases which are 120 degree-electrical apart are fed to the stator winding of the induction motor, a rotating magnetic field is
Slip Speed in an Induction Motor
A rotating magnetic field is produced when three phase supply is fed to stator of an induction motor. The rotating magnetic field has constant magnitude
Single Phase Transformer and Application of Single Phase Transformer
The transformer transforms voltage from one level to another without changing the power and frequency. The transformer is static electrical equipment, and it does not
