2. Induction motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_motor

   Induction motors are most commonly run on single-phase or three-phase power, but two-phase motors exist; in theory, induction motors can have any number of phases. Many single-phase motors having two windings can be viewed as two-phase motors, since a capacitor is used to generate a second power phase 90° from the single-phase supply and feeds ...

3. Shaded-pole motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaded-pole_motor

   The shaded-pole motor is the original type of AC single-phase motor, dating back to at least as early as 1890. [1] 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 ...

4. Induction generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_generator

   An induction generator produces electrical power when its rotor is turned faster than the synchronous speed. For a four-pole motor (two pairs of poles on stator) powered by a 60 Hz source, the synchronous speed is 1800 rotations per minute (rpm) and 1500 RPM powered at 50 Hz. The motor always turns slightly slower than the synchronous speed.

5. AC motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_motor

   A capacitor start motor is a split-phase induction motor with a starting motor capacitor inserted in series with the startup winding, creating an LC circuit which produces a greater phase shift (and so, a much greater starting torque) than both split-phase and shaded pole motors. This motor has a centrifugal switch which disconnects the ...

6. Linear induction motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_induction_motor

   A linear induction motor's primary typically consists of a flat magnetic core (generally laminated) with transverse slots that are often straight cut [6] with coils laid into the slots, with each phase giving an alternating polarity so that the different phases physically overlap. The secondary is frequently a sheet of aluminium, often with an ...

7. 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.
