  2. Wound rotor motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wound_rotor_motor

    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 ...

  3. Slip ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_ring

    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 ...

  4. Packard Station Sedan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packard_Station_Sedan

    The Packard Station Sedan was a luxury station wagon model produced by the Packard Motor Car Company of Detroit, Michigan between 1948 and 1950, using the reintroduced Packard Eight platform. By offering the Station Sedan Packard could market a vehicle with station wagon attributes, but without the investment cost associated with a complete ...

  5. Induction motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_motor

    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.

  6. Circle diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_diagram

    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.

  8. Liquid resistor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_resistor

    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).

  9. Doubly fed electric machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doubly_fed_electric_machine

    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]
