An induction motor relies on low-frequency currents induced in the rotor by the difference in speed between the rotor and the rotating magnetic field. At sychronous speed the induced current is zero therefore the torque is also zero.

Why induction motor speed is always less then synchronous speed?

induction motor never runs at synchronous speed, if it does so there would not be any relative speed between stator flux and rotor and no emf will induce in rotor and we can not apply motor principle as we need current carrying conductor in magnetic field.


Speed of the stator field of an Induction motor is?

synchronous speed


What are the advantages of induction motor?

1. Induction motor has high starting torque, therefore use for operate pump which need high starting torque. 2. Induction motor operate on variable speed. 3. It can be used as generator when speed of motor is higher than synchronous speed.


Application of induction motor in industry?

Induction motor used in industries for variable speed machines . Induction motor has always lagging power factor. Less cost compared to syn. Motor.


Why 3 phase induction motor never atteined sinkronas speed?

Induction motors run at sub synchronous speeds because the slip (difference between synchronous and actual speed) causes, or controls the electric field strength in the motor. As more load is put on the motor, the motor's speed decreases, increasing slip, and increasing the electric field strength.


Difference between induction motor and induction generator?

in case of induction motor the rotor speed is less than synchronous speed giving positive slip but in case of generator the rptor speed is greater than synchronous speed giving negative slip.......


What are convectional and non convectional methods of speed control of a induction motor?

The flux control method is the convectional and the non-convectional method of speed control of an induction motor.


If a three phase induction motor runs at a speed greater than synchronous speed?

When an induction motor is pushed over synchronous speed it will become a generator and will deliver power back to the utility.
