  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 ...

    The test track features level 2-mile (3.2 km) straightaways. Vehicle Dynamics Area: 50-acre (20-hectare) asphalt pad, with an acceleration loop at each end, is a multipurpose facility for vehicle dynamic testing, durability testing, brake testing, performance testing , product demonstrations, and driver training.

  4. Marysville Auto Plant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marysville_Auto_Plant

    Honda Marysville Auto Plant (MAP) is a Honda manufacturing facility located approximately six miles northwest of Marysville, Ohio, and 42 miles northwest of Columbus, Ohio, near the intersection of US 33 and State Route 739. It is one of the most integrated and flexible auto plants in North America.

  5. Vector group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_group

    Similar to a wye winding, but two windings from each phase are arranged so that the three legs are "bent" when the phase diagram is drawn. Zigzag-wound transformers have special characteristics and are not commonly used where these characteristics are not needed. N (uppercase): indicates that a system neutral is connected to the high-voltage side.

  6. Linear induction motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_induction_motor

    The "primary" core (grey) has grooves, and the windings are laid into them on top of each other. An aluminium plate above (not shown) serves as "secondary" and will move relative to the primary if a 3 phase AC is applied. A transverse flux linear induction motor (here the primary is at top of picture) and has two sets of opposite poles side by ...

  7. Polyphase system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyphase_system

    In the very early days of commercial electric power, some installations used two-phase four-wire systems for motors. The chief advantage of these was that the winding configuration was the same as for a single-phase capacitor-start motor and, by using a four-wire system, conceptually the phases were independent and easy to analyse with mathematical tools available at the time.

  8. Doubly fed electric machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doubly_fed_electric_machine

    The other winding (traditionally called the field, but here both windings can be outputs) is connected to 3-phase AC power at variable frequency. This input power is adjusted in frequency and phase to compensate for changes in speed of the turbine. [4] Adjusting the frequency and phase requires an AC to DC to AC converter.

  9. Reluctance motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reluctance_motor

    Notice the concentrated windings on the stator poles. Cross-section of switched reluctance machine with 6 stator and 4 rotor poles. Notice the concentrated windings on the stator poles. A reluctance motor is a type of electric motor that induces non-permanent magnetic poles on the ferromagnetic rotor. The rotor does not have any windings.
