Reminder
Need 45mins for covering the left
topics of speed control for Group 2.
Today or tomorrow - decide and
inform me. Choice is yours.
Single Phase Induction Motors

Syllabus portion left for midterm

Double field revolving theory
Equivalent circuit of 1-ph IM without core
loss
Equivalent circuit of 1-ph IM with core loss
 Types of 1-ph IMs
Split phase induction motor
Capacitor start induction motor
Shaded pole induction motor
Split phase induction motor
Split phase induction motor
Reversal of Induction motor
Capacitor Start Induction Motor
Capacitor Start Induction Motor
 Capacitor Start Induction Motor
Applications: fans and blowers, centrifugal
pumps and separators, washing machines,
small machine tools, domestic refrigerators.
Capacitor start-run induction motor: The
advantages of leaving the capacitor
permanently in circuit are: (a). Improvement
of over-load capacity, (b). Higher power factor,
(c). Higher efficiency
Shaded Pole Induction Motor
Shaded Pole Induction Motor
Shaded Pole Induction Motor
 Shaded Pole Induction Motor
Advantages: These motors are simple in
construction, extremely rugged, reliable and
cheap
Disadvantages: low starting torque, very little
overload capability, low efficiency
Applications: small fans, toys, instruments,
hair dryers, circulators and electric clocks
 Reminder
Solve numericals on slip, torque and equivalent
circuits (IM, Double sq.cage, 1-ph)
Practice numericals on tests of induction motors
Numericals on circle diagram (BL Theraja)
Refer BL Theraja, Nagrath and Kothari for
problems
Pencils, compass related things should be
brought for examination
ALL THE BEST
