"A good AC drive technician understands the operation of the variable speed drive and the functions of its components.
An outstanding AC drive technician also understands the effects of the load on the drive and the effects of the drive on the load."

30kva generators ,it can be able to run the 18kw ac motor
Use a VFD (Variable Frequency Drive) to drive the motor and do not run the motor at more than 50% of the full capacity. For higher RPM use gear system.
An AC Drive used for a speed control of a motor by using vary frequency.
A synchronous motor is an ac motor that does not run on dc.
An AC drive is a device that converts AC power into a desired frequency to allow for AC motor speed control. This term is commonly used in engineering.
Motors are available that run on either.
It is done to control the speed of the motor.
use a inverter to change dc to ac or couple it to a ac motor making it a motor generator. Comment: AC motors cannot run on DC since their principle of operation based on induction. There's an exception,however, and thats for Universal Series motor which can run on either AC or DC.
One can purchase an AC drive at DriveSys, Vacon, EmersonIndustrial, Delta or GETransporation. An AC drive is a device used to control the speed of an electrical motor.
Are you planning to build a perpetual motion machine in which the power generated by an AC generator is used to run an AC motor which is used to run the same AC generator which provides it with power? Because that won't work. Yes, you can use a motor to generate electricity, and you can use electricity to run a motor, but the process is not 100% efficient and if you try to make it a closed loop, it will run down fairly quickly. So, what do we actually do? We use fuel to run an AC generator, or we use waterfalls or wind, or some other energy source, and then we use the power to run our motor.
An AC drive is a type of adjustable-speed drive used in electro-mechanical drive systems to control AC motor speed and torque by varying motor input frequency and voltage. AC drives are used in applications ranging from small appliances to the largest of mine mill drives and compressors.
The AC is pulling power from the motor. The oxygen censor on the motor may also be causing this problem as well.
