ac drives is a component used to control the speed of induction motor by varying the frequency as speed is directly proportional to speed it consists of rectifiers , filters bus and inverter circuits along with triggering device like scr or igbt
It's been treated as electric energy saving devices in lots of industries

Yes, ac drives are better than dc drives. You can find more info at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-frequency_drive or www.avtron.com/ac_vs_dc.htm
Personally, AC and DC drives are quite easy to understand. DC drive is a device that uses AC as a power source to control the DC device.
Your cars engine accessory belt drives the AC compressor.
????? The belt only drives the AC so all you have is the tensioner, AC and main pully!
DC drives are direct current motors. They are lower in cost and easier to control as compared to AC drives, which are also known as alternating current motors.
Drive D\does not start from terminal block start, run or jog inputs is a common problem. Some solutions are here http://www.ien.com/article/troubleshooting-ac-drives/113827
No the timing belt drives the camshaft. A serpentine belt drives accessories such as alternator, power steering and ac.
AC input
An amplidyne is a form of electromechanical amplifier in which an AC motor drives a DC generator.

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.
A variable-frequency drive (VFD) is a system for controlling the speed of a rotational or linear alternating current (AC) electric motor by controlling the frequency of the electrical power supplied to the motor.[1][2][3] A variable frequency drive is a specific type of adjustable-speed drive. Variable-frequency drives are also known as adjustable-frequency drives (AFD), variable-speed drives (VSD), AC drives, microdrives or inverter drives.
