  2. Torque converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_converter

    The classic torque converter design dictates that the stator be prevented from rotating under any condition, hence the term stator. In practice, however, the stator is mounted on an overrunning clutch , which prevents the stator from counter-rotating with respect to the prime mover but allows forward rotation.

  3. 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.

  4. Dynaflow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynaflow

    The Dynaflow was an inherently inefficient design due to its sole reliance on the torque converter in normal driving. Exacerbating the situation was the dual stator arrangement, which wasted more power than the simpler three element converters used with other automatic transmissions, such as Chrysler's TorqueFlite. The multiple stators ...

  5. Stator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stator

    Rotor (lower left) and stator (upper right) of an electric motor Stator of a 3-phase AC-motor Stator of a brushless DC motor from computer cooler fan.. The stator is the stationary part of a rotary system, [1] found in electric generators, electric motors, sirens, mud motors, or biological rotors (such as bacterial flagella or ATP synthase).

  6. Reluctance motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reluctance_motor

    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. It generates torque through magnetic reluctance.

  7. Direct torque control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_torque_control

    Direct torque control (DTC) is one method used in variable-frequency drives to control the torque (and thus finally the speed) of three-phase AC electric motors. This involves calculating an estimate of the motor's magnetic flux and torque based on the measured voltage and current of the motor.

  8. Cogging torque - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cogging_torque

    Cogging torque of electrical motors is the torque due to the interaction between the permanent magnets of the rotor and the stator slots of a permanent magnet machine. It is also known as detent or no-current torque. This torque is position dependent and its periodicity per revolution depends on the number of magnetic poles and the number of ...

  9. Motor soft starter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_soft_starter

    Digital Soft Starter. Whenever the armature of an electric motor is moving, both the motor action and generator action are occurring simultaneously; the electromagnetic force produced by generator action opposes the desired motor action and effectively creates a variable motor resistance which increases with motor speed.
