Difference between transformer and 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.
What is the effect of increasing the length of the air gap in an induction motor?
The magnetic flux that couples the rotor to the stator will weaken significantly reducing the motor's torque.
When the length of air gap is increased in an induction motor what will also increase?
Power factor reduces overload capacity increased noise reduces
Why the no load current is more in an induction motor because of high reluctance airgap?
due to high reluctance air gap magnetisation current is very high as a result no load current is more
Why the no-load current of an induction motor is high compared to a transformer?
Because of the presence of the air-gap between stator and rotor in motor the magnetization current is much higher than that of a transformer in addition to the friction and windage losses due to the rotation of the rotor.
Does induction motor works on Electromagnetic induction?
Yes the Induction motor works on Electromagnetic induction principle.
Why the efficiency of induction motor is less than that of transformer?
Because, the losses of IM is more due to the contribution of friction losses at shaft bearings and wind age losses in rotor air gap, this reduces the efficiency of the equipment, Since transforms is a static equipment zero mechanical loss so efficiency of the equipments in high .
Why the no load power factor is quite small in case of 3-phase induction motor?
Induction motors are designed for a certain power. If the power demand is lower than that, you still have to setup the magnetic fields as if you were going to supply that maximum power. As a result, the no-load power factor of an induction motor is quite small, i.e. poor.
What is induction motor?
Induction motor is an AC electric motor which uses electromagnetic induction to induce the electric current in the rotor to produce torque.
Applications of induction motor?
A single phase induction motor is mainly used in fans.It is capacitor start capacitor run induction motor.In three phase induction motor squirrel cage induction motor is mainly used in elevators,lifts,cranes.slip ring induction motor is mainly used in electrically driven ships.
What is a decripition of Nikola Tesla induction electric motor?
AC Induction Motor
Which type of ac motors are used in air cooler?
generally induction motor of single phase is used in air cooler.
