  2. Shaded-pole motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaded-pole_motor

    A shaded-pole motor is a motor, in which the auxiliary winding is composed of a copper ring or bar surrounding a portion of each pole to produce a weakly rotating magnetic field. [2] When single phase AC supply is applied to the stator winding, due to shading provided to the poles, a rotating magnetic field is generated.

  3. Motor capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_capacitor

    A typical motor start capacitor. A motor capacitor [1] [2] is an electrical capacitor that alters the current to one or more windings of a single-phase alternating-current induction motor to create a rotating magnetic field. [citation needed] There are two common types of motor capacitors, start capacitor and run capacitor (including a dual run ...

  4. 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.

  5. Shading coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shading_coil

    A shaded-pole motor is an AC single phase induction motor. Its includes an auxiliary winding composed of a copper ring called a shading ring (or shading coil with more than one turn). [5] The auxiliary winding produces a secondary magnetic flux which, along with the flux from the primary coil, forms a rotating magnetic field suitable for ...

  6. Armature (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armature_(electrical)

    In electrical engineering, the armature is the winding (or set of windings) of an electric machine which carries alternating current. [1] The armature windings conduct AC even on DC machines, due to the commutator action (which periodically reverses current direction) or due to electronic commutation, as in brushless DC motors.

  7. Universal motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_motor

    The universal motor is modified in several ways to allow for proper AC supply operation. There is a compensating winding typically added, along with laminated pole pieces, as opposed to the solid pole pieces found in DC motors. [2] A universal motor's armature typically has far more coils and plates than a DC motor, and hence fewer windings per ...

  8. Squirrel-cage rotor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squirrel-cage_rotor

    Galileo Ferraris described an induction machine with a two-phase stator winding and a solid copper cylindrical armature in 1885. In 1888, Nikola Tesla received a patent on a two-phase induction motor with a short-circuited copper rotor winding and a two-phase stator winding. Developments of this design became commercially important.

  9. Switched reluctance motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switched_reluctance_motor

    The most common approach to powering an SRM is to use an asymmetric bridge converter. The switching frequency can be 10 times lower than for AC motors. [3] The phases in an asymmetric bridge converter correspond to the motor phases. If both of the power switches on either side of the phase are turned on, then that corresponding phase is actuated.
