  2. Brushless DC electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brushless_DC_electric_motor

    A brushless DC electric motor (BLDC), also known as an electronically commutated motor, is a synchronous motor using a direct current (DC) electric power supply. It uses an electronic controller to switch DC currents to the motor windings producing magnetic fields that effectively rotate in space and which the permanent magnet rotor follows.

  3. Inrush current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inrush_current

    The inrush may be as much as 14 times the steady-state current and may persist for a few milliseconds for smaller lamps up to several seconds for lamps of 500 watts or more. [1] (Non-graphitized) carbon-filament lamps, rarely used now, have a negative temperature coefficient and draw more current as they warm up; an "inrush" current is not ...

  4. Blocked rotor test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blocked_rotor_test

    It is also known as short-circuit test (because it is the mechanical analogy of a transformer short-circuit test), [1] locked rotor test or stalled torque test. [2] From this test, short-circuit current at normal voltage , power factor on short circuit, total leakage reactance , and starting torque of the motor can be found.

  5. Brushed DC electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brushed_DC_electric_motor

    Brushed motors were the first commercially important application of electric power to driving mechanical energy, and DC distribution systems were used for more than 100 years to operate motors in commercial and industrial buildings. Brushed DC motors can be varied in speed by changing the operating voltage or the strength of the magnetic field.

  6. Radial flux motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radial_flux_motor

    The features of a radial flux motor are placed on the sides. The copper windings are wrapped around slots. [1] A traditional radial flux BLDC motor places a rotor made of permanent magnets inside the stator. The stator contains support known as a yoke, which is outfitted with "teeth", individually wrapped with electromagnetic coils.

  7. Vector control (motor) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_control_(motor)

    In vector control, an AC induction or synchronous motor is controlled under all operating conditions like a separately excited DC motor. [21] That is, the AC motor behaves like a DC motor in which the field flux linkage and armature flux linkage created by the respective field and armature (or torque component) currents are orthogonally aligned such that, when torque is controlled, the field ...

  9. Switched reluctance motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switched_reluctance_motor

    The switched reluctance motor (SRM) is a type of reluctance motor. Unlike brushed DC motors , power is delivered to windings in the stator (case) rather than the rotor . This simplifies mechanical design because power does not have to be delivered to the moving rotor, which eliminates the need for a commutator .
