  2. Three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-phase_electric_power

    A three-phase induction motor has a simple design, inherently high starting torque and high efficiency. Such motors are applied in industry for many applications. A three-phase motor is more compact and less costly than a single-phase motor of the same voltage class and rating, and single-phase AC motors above 10 hp (7.5 kW) are uncommon. Three ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_three-phase...

    In electrical engineering, three-phase electric power systems have at least three conductors carrying alternating voltages that are offset in time by one-third of the period. A three-phase system may be arranged in delta (∆) or star (Y) (also denoted as wye in some areas, as symbolically it is similar to the letter 'Y').

  4. Reluctance motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 .

  6. Linear induction motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_induction_motor

    A linear induction motor (LIM) is an alternating current (AC), asynchronous linear motor that works by the same general principles as other induction motors but is typically designed to directly produce motion in a straight line. Characteristically, linear induction motors have a finite primary or secondary length, which generates end-effects ...

  7. Induction generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_generator

    As an example, consider the use of a 10 hp, 1760 r/min, 440 V, three-phase induction motor (a.k.a. induction electrical machine in an asynchronous generator regime) as asynchronous generator. The full-load current of the motor is 10 A and the full-load power factor is 0.8. Required capacitance per phase if capacitors are connected in delta:

  8. 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. AC motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_motor

    Working from Ferraris's experiments, Mikhail Dolivo-Dobrovolsky introduced the first three-phase induction motor in 1890, a much more capable design that became the prototype used in Europe and the U.S. [13] [14] [15] He also invented the first three-phase generator and transformer and combined them into the first complete AC three-phase system ...
