What is Semiconductor Diode?: The Semiconductor Diode (Silicon Rectifier) described here in Fig 11.2(a) are based on the property of p-type and n-type materials in conjunction. An ideal diode presents…
Motor Control by Static Power Converters: Motor Control by Static Power Converters - Power electronics is a multidisciplinary technology that encompasses power semiconductor devices, converter circuits, electric machines, signal electronics,…
AC Series Motor: A series motor can be run from either dc or ac (single-phase) supply provided that both stator and rotor cores are laminated to limit the iron-loss. Figure…
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…
Difference Between Single Phase and Three Phase Induction Motor: Difference Between Single Phase and Three Phase Induction Motor - In a 3-phase induction motor the maximum torque is independent of…
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…
Development of a High Efficiency Induction Motor: With ever-increasing energy cost the life-time operating cost of an induction motor can be traded against a high efficiency and high capital cost…
Dynamic Modelling of Induction Motor: In general, the mechanical time-constant for any machine is much larger than the electrical time constant. Therefore, the Dynamic Modelling of Induction Motor can be…
