Block Diagram of Electric Drive System: It is normal practice in control engineering to represent a control system by means of a Block Diagram of Electric Drive System, with a…
Introduction Control Techniques in Electric Drives: An electric drive is a well established industrial drive as it has several advantages and special features. Its Control Techniques consists in starting, speed…
Short Time Intermittent Duty: Another class of duty for normally occurring loads is Short Time Intermittent Duty in which the load requires a constant power for a short interval of…
Electric Motor Cooling and Heating: The geometry of an Electric Motor Cooling is too complex to predict accurately the heat flow and temperature distribution. This is a difficult task. A…
Reversible Drives using Choppers: Using two quadrant choppers a reversible drive can be achieved, because this combination allows reversal of both current and voltage of the motor terminals. We can…
Reversible Drive using Dual Converter: It is possible to reverse both voltage and current of the load using a dual converter. The current reversal is very fast in this case…
Reversible Drives using Phase Controlled Converters: When speed control in both forward and reverse directions is required a Reversible Drives is used. In several applications the speed reversal may be…
Chopper Fed DC Drives: The variable voltage to the armature of a dc motor for speed control can be obtained from a dc chopper which is a single stage dc…
