Wound-rotor motors can be started with low inrush current, by inserting high resistance into the rotor circuit; as the motor accelerates, the resistance can be decreased. [ 1 ] Compared to a squirrel-cage rotor , the rotor of the slip ring motor has more winding turns; the induced voltage is then higher, and the current lower, than for a ...
In this example, the slip rings have a brush-lifting device and a sliding contact bar, allowing the slip-rings to be short-circuited when no longer required. This can be used in starting a slip-ring induction motor, for example. A slip ring is an electromechanical device that allows the transmission of power and electrical signals from a ...
An induction motor or asynchronous motor is an AC electric motor in which the electric current in the rotor that produces torque is obtained by electromagnetic induction from the magnetic field of the stator winding. [1] An induction motor therefore needs no electrical connections to the rotor.
The circle diagram can be drawn for alternators, synchronous motors, transformers, induction motors. The Heyland diagram is an approximate representation of a circle diagram applied to induction motors, which assumes that stator input voltage, rotor resistance and rotor reactance are constant and stator resistance and core loss are zero.
They are used in the rotor circuits of large slip ring induction motors to control starting current, torque and to limit large electrical fault currents (while other protection systems operate to clear or isolate the fault).
The Chevrolet Impala (/ ɪ m ˈ p æ l ə,-ˈ p ɑː l ə /) is a full-size car that was built by Chevrolet for model years 1958 to 1985, 1994 to 1996, and 2000 to 2020. The Impala was Chevrolet's popular flagship passenger car and was among the better-selling American-made automobiles in the United States.
It is based on an induction generator with a multiphase wound rotor and a multiphase slip ring assembly with brushes for access to the rotor windings. It is possible to avoid the multiphase slip ring assembly, but there are problems with efficiency, cost and size. A better alternative is a brushless wound-rotor doubly fed electric machine. [12]
Liquid rheostats used as motor start switches, circa 1900. A liquid rheostat or water rheostat [1] or salt water rheostat is a type of variable resistor.This may be used as a dummy load or as a starting resistor for large slip ring motors.
