Four Phase Stepper Motor: Four Phase Stepper Motor - The stepper motor is a special type of synchronous motor which is designed to rotate through a specific angle (called a step) for each electrical pulse…

Two phase AC Servo Motor: For a low-power (a few hundred watts) control application, a balanced Two phase AC Servo Motor is ideally suited as it can be driven by means of a relatively rugged…

Equivalent Circuit of Single Phase Induction Motor: Equivalent Circuit of Single Phase Induction Motor - The winding unbalance and the fact that both the main and auxiliary windings are fed by the same supply result…

Types of Single Phase Synchronous Motor: There are two types of single phase synchronous motor, namely, Reluctance Motor Hysteresis Motor Construction of Reluctance Motor and Torque Speed Characteristics: The reluctance motor, in general, results wherever…

Shaded Pole Motor Working Principle: Figure 10.17 shows a typical Shaded Pole Motor with a squirrel-cage rotor. A small portion of each pole is covered with a short-circuited, single-turn copper coil called the shading coil.…

Split Phase Motor: When a motor is provided with two windings, even though these are excited from the same voltage (supply being single-phase), the currents in the two windings can be made out-of-phase by adjustment…

Single Phase Two Winding Motor: Single Phase Two Winding Motor - To understand the field phenomenon that contributes towards the generation of starting torque in a single-phase motor, it greatly helps to first study a…

Single Phase Induction Motor: A Single Phase Induction Motor comprises a single-phase distributed winding on the stator and normal squirrel-cage rotor as shown schematically in Fig. 10.1 wherein for convenience the stator winding is shown…
