  2. Two-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-phase_electric_power

    Induction motors designed for two-phase operation use a similar winding configuration as capacitor start single-phase motors. However, in a two-phase induction motor, the impedances of the two windings are identical. Two-phase circuits also have the advantage of constant combined power into an ideal load, whereas power in a single-phase circuit ...

  3. Dahlander pole changing motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dahlander_pole_changing_motor

    A regular induction motor has an equal number of opposite poles; that is, at any instant, there are an equal number of North and South magnetic poles. Some smaller induction motors are connected so that all the poles are identical, causing the motor to act as though there is an equal number of opposite poles in between. A Dahlander motor ...

  4. Induction motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_motor

    There are three basic types of small induction motors: split-phase single-phase, shaded-pole single-phase, and polyphase. In two-pole single-phase motors, the torque goes to zero at 100% slip (zero speed), so these require alterations to the stator such as shaded-poles to provide starting torque. A single phase induction motor requires separate ...

  5. Reluctance motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reluctance_motor

    The number of poles must be even, typically 4 or 6. The rotor operates at synchronous speeds without current-conducting parts. Rotor losses are minimal compared to those of an induction motor, however it normally has less torque. [2] [3] Once started at synchronous speed, the motor can operate with sinusoidal voltage.

  6. Linear motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_motor

    The low-acceleration, high speed and high power motors are usually of the linear synchronous motor (LSM) design, with an active winding on one side of the air-gap and an array of alternate-pole magnets on the other side. These magnets can be permanent magnets or electromagnets. The motor for the Shanghai maglev train, for instance, is an LSM.

  7. 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. Rotating magnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_magnetic_field

    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.

  9. Circuit diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_diagram

    A drawing meant to depict the physical arrangement of the wires and the components they connect is called artwork or layout, physical design, or wiring diagram. Circuit diagrams are used for the design ( circuit design ), construction (such as PCB layout), and maintenance of electrical and electronic equipment.
