A change in frequency of the motor will cause a change in the speed of the AC conveyor motor. This frequency change is brought about by a device called a Variable Frequency Drive. It is used to vary the frequency of the motor from 0 to 100%. I have no idea what the second answer is talking about.

ANSWER: considering that no mention of type of motor is involved the frequency change theory is quite invalid since 50 or 60 Hz AC line runs clocks from banks to wake up calls and while it is true that the frequency is not accurate from second to second it is however very accurate from minutes to minutes.

How do you change the speed of motor without change pole and frequency?

On an AC motor you basically vary the frequency on a DC you can vary the voltage.


How do you control the speed on an ac motor?

the speed of ac motor can be controlled by controlling the synchronous speed (Ns=120f/p). and synchronous speed can be varried or controlled by changing frequency or by changing poles. but practicaly pole can not be changed. but we can change the frequency. the frequency can be VFD (Variable frequency Drives). so the speed of ac motor can be chaged or controlled by VFD.

How do you change an ac motor to a DC motor?

Ac motor have slip ring, to remove the slip ring,connected to the commutator its a dc motor.


Why ac drive convert ac voltage in dc?

It is done to control the speed of the motor.


What determines the speed of an AC motor?

The higher the frequency the higher the RPM the motor will turn


Single phase motor speed is determined by the?

frequency of the power supply it is connected to. The speed of a single phase motor is directly related to the frequency of the alternating current (AC) power supply. As the frequency of the power supply changes, the speed of the motor will also change.


Can a DC series motor with speed control be connected on AC supply?

A dc series motor with speed control can be connected on ac supply because dc machines are totally reversible.


How does an ac drive variable speed drive operate to control speed?

Answer #1 It varies the frequency fed to a synchronous AC motor. As the frequency changes, so does the motor speed. Answer #2 The formula for calculating speed is: (120 X motor supply frequency) / number of poles 120 is a fixed number, so is the number of poles for a given motor, hence the only variable is the motor supply frequency. AC drives vary the motor supply frequency in turn achieving speed control.


What is a motor design that works with either an AC source or a DC source?

A variable speed module in a motor can work with ac or dc source


What type of ac motor will operate at a constant speed from no load to full load?

The Synchronous motors will operate at a constant speed from noload to fullload. Even it is classified as an AC motor, we have to fed the motor both AC and DC supplies. That we have to supply DC to the Field (Normally Rotor) and AC to the Armature (Normally Stator).


Speed of DC Motor can be controlled by a frequency variable?

by using a frequency tuner in input we can change input frequency and in this way speed of dc motor will also vary. <<>> Varying the frequency (VFD) only works on AC motors.
