The part of an AC induction motor that turns is called the rotor. The rotor is located inside the stator, which is the stationary part of the motor. When alternating current flows through the stator windings, it creates a rotating magnetic field that induces current in the rotor, causing it to spin and produce mechanical output.

What is the power factor of an induction motor?

Induction motor comprised inductor as the most part in it and an inductor has the characteristic to oppose the change of current, i.e., it has lagging power factor as current lags behind the voltage. Hence, an induction motor works on lagging power factor.

Where reactive power is used which is released in another part of ac voltage cycle as you have reactive power is power that is stored in one part of the AC voltage wave and released in another?

single phase induction motor is really a two phase motor a capacitor to one of the phases stores the reactive power releasing it to the coil 90 degrees later setting up the rotating magnetic field that stores reactive power in the rotor (or the shorted windings of the rotor) releasing it as it turns


Differences of induction motors and synchronous motors?

An induction motor is a type of electric motor. It uses alternating current (AC) electricity and induces (hence the name) a current in the rotating part to make it move. You might call it a rotating transformer. A hydraulic motor is powered by a fluid. Typically this might be an oil, The oil forces round some gears or vanes to make the motor shaft turn. A hydraulic motor requires an external supply of pressurised fluid, e.g. oil. Large earthmoving equipment or diggers use hydraulic power as it is compact and powerful for its size.


What is the working principle of ac motor?

AC commutator motors, like comparable DC motors, have higher starting torque and higher speed than AC induction motors. The series motor operates well above the synchronous speed of a conventional AC motor. AC commutator motors may be either single-phase or poly-phase. The single-phase AC version suffers a double line frequency torque pulsation, not present in poly-phase motor. Since a commutator motor can operate at much higher speed than an induction motor, it can output more power than a similar size induction motor. However commutator motors are not as maintenance free as induction motors, due to brush and commutator wear.

Why dc motor is not named as conduction motor?

In dc motors, the electric power is conducted directly to the armature (i.e., rotating part) through brushes & commutator. Hence, in this sense a dc motor can be called as a Conduction motor. However, in ac motors, the rotor does not receive any electric power by conduction but by induction in exactly the same way as the secondary of a two winding transformer receives its power from the primary. That is why such motors are called as Induction motors. An induction motor can be treated as a rotating transformer i.e., one in which primary winding is stationary but secondary is free to rotate.


Why DC motor current ripple?

The induction of a DC motor while rotation lead to a non continuid current. This AC part of the DC csupply current is called ripple current. You can measure this and see if the motor is moving and also you can count the ripple per second and have the motor speed "RMS".


What is the difference between stator and rotar?

An electric motor converts electrical power to mechanical power in its rotor (rotating part). There are several ways to supply power to the rotor. In a DC motor this power is supplied to the armature directly from a DC source, while in an induction motor this power is induced in the rotating device. An induction motor is sometimes called arotating transformer because the stator (stationary part) is essentially the primary side of the transformer and the rotor (rotating part) is the secondary side. The primary side's currents evokes a magnetic field which interacts with the secondary side's emf to produce a resultant torque, henceforth serving the purpose of producing mechanical energy. Induction motors are widely used, especially polyphase induction motors, which are frequently used in industrial drives.

What is the relationship between an induction motor and transformer?

In an induction motor, power is supplied to the rotor using a changing magnetic flux i.e. without any true conductive contact. Similarly, in a transformer, the power is transferred from the primary coil to the secondry one using a varying magnetic flux and the plates have no physical linkage. Hence, the similarity between an induction motor and a transformer is very basic i.e. they both use the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction to transfer power from one part to another.

What is the fixed part of a motor called?

The fixed part of a motor is called the stator. It is the stationary component that generates a magnetic field in response to the electrical current flowing through it.


Why is an induction motor called rotating transformer?

A motor rotor rotates due to an interaction between magnetic fields of the rotor and stator, where either may use permanent magnets, electromagnets, or a combination of both to effect the interaction. This interaction is based on the principle of opposite attraction and like repulsion related to magnets. Either the rotor or stator creates an electromagnetic field, and the opposite component (rotor or stator) tries to attract and repel the appropriate magnetic poles to 'lock' position with the electromagnetic field. The magnetic field is 'rotated' electrically by applying voltage to different windings within the motor in sequence, and since the moving component always tries to lock position with the magnetic field, the rotor will constantly rotate while trying to align its magnetism.
