The input power, Pin, is reduced by different loss sources in the system. These reductions are the difference between input power & output power.
The losses are:
PSCL: Stator copper losses, or I2R losses
Pcore: Core losses
PRCL: Rotor copper losses
PF&W: Friction & windage losses
Pmisc: miscellaneous losses
All of these losses reduce the input power. The output power is the input power minus all of the losses.
Pout = Pin - PSCL - Pcore - PRCL - PF&W - Pmisc
An induction motor has a lagging power factor. Motors of more than about 2 HP are designed to have a power factor of 0.85 or higher.
When you do a load test on a 3-phase induction motor you are checking the power factor, viz slip, and efficiency of the motor. You can test various loads with this test.
In dc motors, the electric power is conducted directly to the armature (i.e., rotating part) through brushes & commutator. Hence, in this sense a dc motor can be called as a Conduction motor. However, in ac motors, the rotor does not receive any electric power by conduction but by induction in exactly the same way as the secondary of a two winding transformer receives its power from the primary. That is why such motors are called as Induction motors. An induction motor can be treated as a rotating transformer i.e., one in which primary winding is stationary but secondary is free to rotate.
An asynchronous alternating-current machine, such as an induction motor or induction generator, in which the windings of two electric circuits rotate with respect to each other and power is transferred from one circuit to the other by electromagnetic induction.Reference: Wiki Answers
BHP stands for 'brake horsepower', and simply means it is describing the output, rather than the input, power of the machine. Although a motor's output power is expressed in horsepower in North America, elsewhere it is expressed in watts.
slip power is a power which is develop by the induced voltage and current in an induction motor
Induction motor comprised inductor as the most part in it and an inductor has the characteristic to oppose the change of current, i.e., it has lagging power factor as current lags behind the voltage. Hence, an induction motor works on lagging power factor.
Induction motor used in industries for variable speed machines . Induction motor has always lagging power factor. Less cost compared to syn. Motor.
An induction motor has a lagging power factor. Motors of more than about 2 HP are designed to have a power factor of 0.85 or higher.
That indicates a fault in the induction motor.
1. Induction Motor has an air-gap but transformer has no air gap rather it is mutually link. 2. Induction Motor has high no-load current than transformer. 3. Induction Motor is a dynamic device. 4. Induction Motor has high power factor.
Three Phase Induction Motor is self starting motor so you can start it by conneting to power lines directly if the power line capacity is sufficient.
Low-power (a few watts) might use a synchronous motor, most fans use an induction motor. Above a couple of horse-power it might be a 3-phase induction motor.
When you do a load test on a 3-phase induction motor you are checking the power factor, viz slip, and efficiency of the motor. You can test various loads with this test.

induction motor has two control system one is stator control another rotor control And it comes under the category of asynchronous motors. The term induction is because the rotor of an a.c motor does not receive the electric power through conduction but by induction same as the secondary of the transformer receives the power from primary. And so an induction motor can also be called as a rotating transformer i.e. one in which primary is stationary and secondary is free to rotate.
It's an a.c. motor with an output power of 5 horsepower or roughly 3.75 kW.
