Armature current is supplied to the rotor through brush and commutator. When the motor is excited by a field current if and armature current ia flows, the motor develops a back emf and a torque to balance the load torque at a particular speed. The current if is independent of ia. The armature current has no effect on te field current. The current if is less than ia.

The speed can be controlled by varying voltage in the constant torque region. In the constant power region, field flux should be reduced to achieve speed above the rated speed.

Fig: Armature voltage and field current control Q10) Explain the working of IM?A 10) The fundamental principle of induction machine is the creation of rotating and sinusoidally distributed magnetic field in the air gap. Three phase balanced power supply is fed to the three-phase stator winding creates a synchronously rotating magnetic field. Due to relative speed between rotating flux and stationary conductors, an emf is induced. The frequency to induced emf is same as supply frequency. As shown in below fig.a , the stator field is assumed to clockwise. The relative motion of rotor w.r.t stator is anticlockwise. From Right-hand rule, the direction of induced emf in rotor is outwards. By the effect of combined field as shown in fig b the rotor experiences a force tending to rotate it in clockwise direction. Hence rotor rotates in the same direction as the stator field.

The speed of this rotating field is called synchronous speed. If the rotor is initially stationary, its conductors will be subjected to a changing magnetic field, inducing current in the short-circuited rotor at the same frequency. The interaction of air gap flux and rotor mmf produces torque. At synchronous speed rotor cannot have any torque. Q11) Explain speed control of IM?A 11) The speed can be controlled by the following methods.

Changing stator Pole: This can be done by Multiple stator windings. In stator two windings are provided which are isolated and have different number of poles. By switching we can control the supply to one winding and hence control the speed.

Supply voltage control: The torque produced is proportional to

. The value of

is very small and R2 is also constant so T α

. But E2 α V therefore, T α sV2. This equation shows that if supply voltage is decreased the torque also decreases.

Adding rheostat in the stator: As we already know T α

. The value of

is very small and E2 is also constant so T α

. Now if we increase rotor resistance, R2 torque decreases but to supply the same load torque must remain constant. So, we increase slip, which will further result in the decrease in rotor speed. Thus, by adding additional resistance in the rotor circuit, we can decrease the speed of the three-phase induction motor.

v/f control: There is no direct relation in the speed and torque. At, full load the motor runs at a speed N. When mechanical load increases motor speed decreases till the motor torque again becomes equal to the load torque.

As long as two torques are equal the motor runs at constant speed. When the supply frequency increases the speed increases and reduces the maximum torque of motor. So,

F increases, N increases, Tmax decreases.

V increases, Tmax increases.
