Braking of Electric Machines

Why Braking
To stop the electric motor.
To sustain the speed of the drive system
at the desired value.
To prevent
speeding.

To hold the motor shaft at a certain


position regardless of the applied load

1. Regenerative Braking
When the load torque causes the machine to
run at a speed > no-load speed, but
without changing its direction of rotation,

2. Dynamic Braking
When the motor is running, kinetic
energy is stored in its rotating
mass.
If the kinetic energy of the motor is
dissipated in a resistive element,
the motor stops.
