The induction motor is the special kind of motor which runs below and above the synchronous speed. which the synchronous motor runs nearly equal the synchronous speed. The operation of synchronous motor runs with dc field excited hence separate dc field current is given to the field circuit. where as the induction motor the field and main field is drawn from the same supply hence no excitation is required. But due to this separate starting mechanism has to be required in case of the single phase induction motor.

Why you have to connect DC supply to the induction motor?

To start an induction motor we have to excite field. The excitation is done by connecting the DC supply to the field winding's.


Does the value of the exciting current of your 3-phase motor depend on the rotor speed?

An induction motor has no excitation, so the question is about a synchronous motor. The rotor speed is determined by the supply frequency. For a given supply frequency and mechanical load, the excitation current can be adjusted to give the best power factor.


Does induction motor works on Electromagnetic induction?

Yes the Induction motor works on Electromagnetic induction principle.
