The rotating magnetic field is the key principle in the operation of induction machines.The induction motor consists of a stator and rotor.In the stator a group of fixed windings are so arranged that a two phase current, for example, produces a magnetic field which rotates at an angular velocity determined by the frequency of the alternating current.
Ferraris discussed the elementary theory of the apparatus, pointing out that the inductive action would be proportional to the slip, that is to say to the difference between the angular velocity of the magnetic field and that of the rotating cylinder, that the induced current in the rotating metal would also be proportional to this; and that ...
A three-phase power supply provides a rotating magnetic field in an induction motor. Inherent slip – unequal rotation frequency of stator field and the rotor In both induction and synchronous motors , the AC power supplied to the motor's stator creates a magnetic field that rotates in synchronism with the AC oscillations.
A typical two-phase AC servo-motor has a squirrel cage rotor and a field consisting of two windings: a constant-voltage (AC) main winding. a control-voltage (AC) winding in quadrature (i.e., 90 degrees phase shifted) with the main winding so as to produce a rotating magnetic field. Reversing phase makes the motor reverse.
In operation, the non-rotating stator winding is connected to an alternating current power source; the alternating current in the stator produces a rotating magnetic field. The rotor winding has current induced in it by the stator field, like a transformer except that the current in the rotor is varying at the stator field rotation rate minus ...
Galileo Ferraris, professor at the Italian Industrial Museum (now Polytechnic) of Turin, conceived and demonstrated the principle of the rotating magnetic field. Ferraris’ field, produced by two stationary coils with perpendicular axes, was driven by alternating currents phase-shifted by 90 degrees. Ferraris also constructed prototypes of two ...
Three-phase electric machine with rotating magnetic fields. Polyphase power is particularly useful in AC motors, such as the induction motor, where it generates a rotating magnetic field. When a three-or-more-phase supply completes one full cycle, the magnetic field of a two-poles-per-phase motor has rotated through 360° in physical space ...
It commonly consists of two basic parts, an outside stationary stator having coils supplied with alternating current to produce a rotating magnetic field, and an inside rotor attached to the output shaft that is given a torque by the rotating field. The two main types of AC motors are distinguished by the type of rotor used. Induction ...
