Three-phase Induction Machines— Constructional Details 1.1 INTRODUCTION Induction machines, like other electrical rotating machines, are also capable of operating both as motors and generators. As the nature of electrical energy is AC, Induction machines come under the category of AC machines. Further, based on the type of AC used they can be classified as: () — Three-phase Induction machines (i) Single-phase Induction machines Three-phase Induction motors convert three-phase AC electrical energy into mechanical energy. In the reverse mode, the same machine is capable of converting mechanical energy into three-phase AC electrical energy. Ofall electrical motors, three- phase Induction motor is the most extensively used in industries and in other applications. All over the world, about 80% of total energy conversion from electrical to mechanical is carried out by three-phase Induction motors. Its advantages over other machines makes it the best choice for numerous applications. 1,2 ADVANTAGES OF THREE-PHASE INDUCTION MOTORS Simple, and extremely rugged construction Three phase Induction motors, especially squirrel cage motors, are unbreakable and ruggedly constructed. Their simplicity of construction makes them easier to produce in large number and of good quality. Low cost and reliability ow cost is arrived at due to the simplicity of construction, The ruggedness of construction makes the motor operate in a reliable manner, 4 Paxtl: Induction Machines Requires minimum maintenance Squirrel cage Induction motors may not require any maintenance at all except for periodic dusting because of their unbreakable constructional property. High efficiency and good power factor Full load efficiency of three phase- Induction motors vary from 85% to 94%. The full load pf may be between 85% to 92% lagging in nature. Simple starting arrangement Three-phase Induction motors need not be synchronised and this point is in comparison with Synchronous motor. Motors of small capacity can even be directly switched on to the supply. 1.3 DISADVANTAGES OF THREE-PHASE INDUCTION MOTORS Low starting torque The starting torque is comparatively inferior to that of DC motors. Hence applications requiring high starting torque do away with this type of motors. Speed decreases with increase in load As in DC motors, speed decreases with increase in load. This point is considered a disadvantage in comparison with Synchronous motors which operate at constant speed under all load conditions. Speed control Speed control in three-phase Induction motors requires either extra investment for auxiliary controllers or to forego some of its efficiency. This is a disadvantage because the cost of speed controllers may cost around 10 times the price of motors, 1.4 STATOR CONSTRUCTION The stator of the three-phase Induction machine consists of the following parts (shown in Fig 1.1), Eye bolt Frame Stator core Stator slot Stator coil Rib Fig... Stator of three-phase Induction machine Cxarrer 1: Three Phase Induction Machines—Constructional Details 5 @ Frame (i) Stator core (iii) Three-phase stator winding (iv) Terminal box (v) End covers (2 numbers) (vi) Brush gear for slip-ring motor. 1.4.1 Frame This part of the machine gives complete support and protection to the other parts and hence get its name. In machines of small and medium capacity, the frame has a single piece of short, hollow cylinder cast iron casting. Frames for larger capacity machines are fabricated in four or more arc shaped steel pieces and then joined together to form a cylindrical shape. The outer surface may be provided with fins so as to increase the heat dissipating area without increasing the overall diameter. An eye-bolt is fitted on the top of the frame for transit purposes. 1.4.2 Stator Core The stator core provides the space for housing the three-phase stator windings and also forms the path for the rotating magnetic field. To provide less opposition to the flow of magnetic field, high grade steel is used as the basic material. As every part of the stator core is subjected to alternate changes in polarity of the magnetic field due to its rotating nature, hysteresis and eddy current losses are incurred in it, To reduce hysteresis loss, silicon (about 3-5%) is added to the high grade steel. Eddy current loss is minimised by building the stator core by stacking a number of thin (0.35 to 0.65 mm thickness), silicon content stecl stampings. Stator core stampings are punched to give the shape shown in Fig 1.2 (a). Semi-closed slots are provided in the inner portion of the stampings. The number of stator slots (S) provided is given by integer multiples of three times the number of poles (P) for which the machine is designed and constructed. S= xP) aly xedh2,3 {a) Stator stamping (b) Core assembly Fig 1.2 Stator core 6 Pant: Induction Machines: The number of poles (P) of the magnetic field is related to the frequency (/) of the supply voltage and speed of the rotating magnetic field N, by the following equation. PM: Pe (2) 60 120 ed Table 1.1 given below shows the possible values of Synchronous speed N. for motors operating on a SOHz supply system. The running speed N, of Induction motors is slightly less than the Synchronous speed NV. f Table 1.1 Possible values of N, for 30Hz operation Therefore, fora motor having running speed slightly less-than 1500 rpm on a 50 Hz supply, P ischosen to be 4 and the number of slots in the stator stampings are either 12, 24, 36 etc. The stator stampings, afier punched to the required dimension are provided with thin varnish coating to increase’ core body resistance. The stampings are then stacked together to the required length as shown in Fig 1.2.(b). The stack is then pressed and steel ribs are welded over inserted into the stator frame. 1.4.3 Three-phase Stator Winding in suitable places, The assembled core is then For machines of large capacity operating at high voltage, single-layer concentric windings are used. Single layer mush windings are used for machines of smaller capacity working at 415¥V. Most of the medium sized machines are provided with double layer lap windings. Double layer winding is carried out with identical former-wound diamond- shaped copper coils. Windings for each phase are housed in one-third of the total stator slots after sufficient insulation is provided. Total number of coils C required for all the three phases is given by the equation us (1.3) where ‘1’ is number of coil-sides per slot which is an even integer. Stator windings are wound for a specific number of poles depending upon the speed of operation, as shown in Table 1.1. After all the coil are placed inside the slots, the slots are closed with wooden wedges as shown in Fig. 1.3. which keeps the coil sides intact rr Slot opening Wood wedge Layer '4— Slot insulation insulation t—Coil side i— Stator slot Fig 1.3 Stator slot with 4 coil sides Chapter 1: Three Phase Induction Machines—Constructional Details 7 Coils belonging to each phase are normally connected in series and finally one starting end and one finishing end are available for interconnection with other phase winding in Star or Delta. Unless otherwise specified, stator windings are designed for Delta connection so as to make use of start-delta starter. 1.4.4 Terminal Box Sixterminalsmarkedas 4,, 4,, 8,, 8, C,,C., arenormally available in the terminal box of squirrel-cage motor.

(a) and (b). For slip-ring motors three additional terminals are provided—D,E and F as rotor terminals. 1.4.5 End Covers Two end covers with suitable bearings provide support for the rotor assembly. 1.4.6 Brush Gear This is fitted with one of the end-covers which is nearer to the slip-ring side. 1.5 ROTOR CONSTRUCTION The rotor consists of the following parts (i) Rotorcore (i) Rotor winding Gil) Shaft (iv) _Slip-rings for slip ring type rotor 1.5.1 Types of Rotors The following are the two types of rotor construction used for three-phase Induction motors. (i) Squirrel-cage rotor (i) Slip ring rotor 1.5.2 Squirrel Cage Rotor This type of rotor is used in almost 90 per cent of Induction motors as they are very simple, rugged and unbreakable in construction. The rotor core is assembled by stacking rotor stampings punched into the shapes as shown in Fig 1.5. The thickness of the rotor stampings is larger than that of stator stampings as no appreciable iron loss is incurred in the rotor. Closed slots of either circular or rectangular shapes are provided inthe stamping. After the rotor core is stacked by the required number of laminations, the rotor shaft is inserted through the space available at the centre and firmly fitted by the key-way. For machines of smaller and medium capacity, this assembly is then placed in a moulding machine, which will force, under pressure, the molten aluminium through the slots to form rotor bars, end rings and cooling fan arrangement as an extension of end rings. This type of die-cast rotor is simple and rugged in construction. For machines of larger capacity, copper or brass bars are driven through the slots manually and the ends on both sides are then welded or silver soldered together to form end rings. As shown in Fig. 1.6, the rotor bars are slightly inclined to the shaft axis due to the “skew” provided while stacking the rotor stampings. Assembling the rotor core with skew of I to 2 slots provides the following two advantages: Cuarrer 1 : Three Phase Induction Machines—Constructional Details 9 Rotor stamping Rotor slot Fig 1.5 Cage rotor stamping () _Ithelps the motor to run quietly by reducing magnetic hum (ii) It reduces the locking tendency of the rotor. Fig 1.6 Squirrel cage rotor When one views the rotor bar assembly alone leaving the core assembly, it looks like a cage to keep asquirrel inside, hence this type of rotor gets its name squirrel cage rotor. Here the rotor circuit is a permanently closed circuit. 1.5.3 Slip Ring Rotor The other name for this type of rotor is wound rotor. The rotor core has semi-closed slots within which three phase winding, wound for the same number of poles as that of stator windings is provided. The winding is normally connected in star and the resultant three terminals are connected to three slip-rings provided on one end of the shaft, as shown is Fig 1.7 (a). 10 Paxr I: Induction Machines Rotor winding Slip rings 66 e Rotor core (2) Sip-ring rotor assembly Rotor winding (b) External resistance connection Fig 1.7 Slip-ring rotor The sliprings are made up of brass or phosphor-bronze. A brush holding mechanism is fitted on the end cover provided on the slip-ring side. The mechanism has a lever which can be tured to two positions—the start and run position. At the time of starting, the lever is to be turned to start position. This will bring the brushes in contact with the slip-rings. A three-phase variable resistance can be added to the rotor circuit as shown in Fig 1.7. (b). After the machine has picked up speed, the lever is to be turned to the run position. This will cause the slip-rings to be short circuited by means of a-collar which is pushed along the shaft. Simultancously, the brushes are lifted above the slip-rings, thus reducing the wear in the brushes and eliminating brush friction loss. Slip-ring assembly may be fitted either between the rotor core and the bearings or on the shaft extension. Aiming at improved performance, the clearance between the inner surface of the stator core and the outer surface of the rotor core called air-gap, is kept as small as possible. This necessitates the shaft to be made shorter and stiffer so that the rotor may not have any significant deflection. Even a small deflection would create large iiregularities in the air-gap length which would lead to production of unbalanced magnetic pull. For small and medium capacity machines a roller bearing may be used at Crarrer 1: Three Phase induction Machines—Constructional Details 11 the driving end and a ball bearing at the non-driving end. Heavy rotor in large capacity machines are supported by journel bearings. 1,6 SYMBOLIC REPRESENTATIONS Fig.1.8 shows the symbolic representation of three-phase Induction machines.

CHAPTER2 Principle of Operation Induction machines, when operated as a motor work on the same principle of aSynchronous motors, The principle-when current carrying conductors are present within a magnetic field, the conductors experience a force which causes them to exert torque on the shaft. The way in which magnetic field and current are provided to the system of conductors differs from one type of motor to another. In three-phase Induction motors, the magnetic field set-up is rotating in nature and hence called the rotating magnetic field. The current to the system of (roter) conductors is supplied by electromagnetic induction. Hence the motor gets its name, Induction motor, 2.1 ROTATING MAGNETIC FIELD Whenever three-phase winding provided in an AC machine is connected to a three- phase supply, the three-phase current flowing through the winding causes a rotating magnetic field to be set up. The field will have specific number poles—2, 4, 6, 8, etc. (even integers) for which the winding is wound. The direction of rotation of the field depends upon the phase sequence of the supply and the speed of rotation is given by the equation 120f, , P where _/, is the supply frequency in Hz, P is the number of poles for which the winding is wound, ’, is the synchronous speed of the rotating magnetic field in rpm, since this speed is Synchronous with the supply frequency. ’ 1) For the sake of simplicity of explanation, consider a three-phase stator winding of single layer type, wound with single turn coils for 2 poles. This winding requires 12 slots in the stator which will accommodate 2 coils per phase as shown in Fig 2.1. One side of the first coil belonging to phase A is put up in slot | and its terminal form the starting terminal of A-phase winding is marked as 4, . The other end of the same coil isto be placed, normally, 180, clectrical degrees apart. The relation between electrical and mechanical degrees is given by the following equation. 16 Pat]: Induction Machines ‘ P Electrical Degree = 7 Mechanical Degree (2.2) Fig 2.1 Three-phase 2-pole stator winding in 12 slots In the above case, the number poles for which the winding is wound is only 2 and so electrical degree equals mechanical degree. Hence the other side of the first coil is placed in slot number 7. (7=1+6, as slots per pole S/P=(12/2)=6 corresponds to 180 electrical degree.) Then the starting side of the second coil is put in second slot. This end is normally connected in series to the finishing end of the first coil. The other side of the second coil is accommodated in slot number 8 and its end forms the finishing terminal of A-phase winding marked as A, . In a similar manner, coils for phase B is put in slots 5, 11 and 6, 12 which are 120 electrical degrees away from slots 1,7 and 2, 8 respectively where the coils for ‘A-phase were put up. The terminal B, is the starting end of the coil side in slot $ and terminal B, is the finishing end of the coil side in slot 12 Fig 2.2 Three-phase current waveforms The coils for phase C occupies slots 9, 3 and 10,4 which are 120 electrical degrees away from the slots 5, 11 and 6, 12 respectively. C, is the starting terminal connected Carrer 2 : Principle of Operation 17 with the coil side in slot 9 and C, is the finishing terminal with coil side in slot 4. Further the three supply terminals are connected to the winding terminals A, B,, and C, and the finishing terminals 4,, B,, and C, are connected together to form the star point. Figure 2.2 shows the waveforms of the three phase current passing through the three-phase winding discussed above. Different instances, | to 6, are marked at 60° intervals. Positive current is assumed to enter into the coil through the starting terminal while negative current through the finishing end. Let the three-phase current supplied to the three phase winding be in the following sequence. R phase supply to A phase winding Y phase supply to B phase winding B phase supply to C phase winding. (d) Instant 4 (e) Instant S (f) Instant 6 Fig 2.3 Rotating magnetic field with 2 pole At instant (1), R-phase current is positive. Hence it enters into phase A winding via A, terminal and comes out via A, terminal. The coil sides in slots | and 2 get the current direction inward and coil sides in slots 7or 8 get the current direction outward. Similarly, B phase current is also positive in instant (1). This causes current direction in slots 9 and 10 to be inward and in slots 3 and 4 to be outward. Current in Y phase is negative. It therefore will enter the coil B through B, giving inward direction in slots 12 and 11 and willcome out through 8, giving outward direction in slots 6 and 5. These directions are marked and shown in Fig 2.3 (a). Half the total number of coil 18 Parl : Induction Machines sides carry the current in the inward direction while the remaining half coil sides carry current in the outward direction. Current carrying coil sides produce a magnetic field around them. Inward direction current causes a clockwise field and outward direction current causes a flux to be produced in the anticlockwise direction, Hence as shown in Fig 2.3 (a) aresultant clockwise field is produced by coil sides lying in slots 9, 10, 11, 12, 1 and 2. The resultant anticlockwise field is setup by coil sides situated in slots 3,4,5,6,7 and 8. The net flux comes out of the stator core between slots 2 and 3 and enters the air gap. Thus a N-north pole field is created between slots 2 and 3. The flux enters the stator core from air-gap between slots 8 and 9. Thus a S-south pole field is created between slots 8 and 9. The above discussion shows how a two pole magnetic field is created by three phase winding when a three phase current is passed through it. The same three phase current can also produce magnetic field of 4, 6 or any even number of poles provided the winding is wound for it. In Fig 2.3(b) similar procedure is carried out on the same two pole winding but now with the three-phase current at instant (2). As instant (2) lags 60° from instant (1), the axis of the two pole field gets shifted clockwise by 60° (electrical degree ). Similarly a shift of 60 electrical degree of the magnetic field axis takes place in the clockwise direction in instances (3), (4), (5) and (6) as shown in Fig 2.3 (c), (d), (e) and (f) respectively. Instant (7) is identical to instant (1) as now the waveform completes 1 cycle covering 360 degree. Thus in a2 pole machine, the magnetic field axis makes one complete revolution in ‘one cycle of waveform. If the above process is carried out similarly for a 4-pole machine, one can observe that one complete revolution of the magnetic field will take place in two cycles of waveform. This is due to the fact that one revolution covering 360 mechanical degree corresponds to 720 electrical degree for a four pole machine. Therefore, 720 electrical degree is covered in 2 cycle of waveform. This gives the following relation. P Frequency required in eycle/see, f=" x speed is revolution per see ie pole =f 23 0 (2.3) For a given machine, wound for P poles, the speed of the rotating magnetic field is directly proportional to~or in Synchronous with the supply frequency f,. Thus the speed of the rotating magnetic field is otherwise called Synchronous speed N,, . y= 2% +P Now the above mentioned procedure maybe repeated with the following changes in the supply connections, R phase supply to A phase winding Y phase supply to C phase winding B phase supply to B phase winding. Cuarrer 2 : Principle of Operation 19 This change in connection will cause the three phase current to flow in the reverse sequence. Here again, one can observe similar 2 pole field being created, which rotate at Synchronous speed 4, . But now, the direction of rotation of the magnetic field is in the anticlockwise direction. Thus a change in the direction of the rotating magnetic field can be obtained by changing the supply phase sequence. A change in the phase sequence can be achieved either by interchanging any two supply terminals or machine terminals. The magnitude of the rotating magnetic field is directly proportional to the magnetising current which in tum depends on the magnitude of the supply voltage. The speed of the rotating magnetic field is directly proportional to the supply frequency and the direction of rotation of the magnetic field depends upon the phase sequence of the three-phase supply. 2.2 STANDSTILL CONDITION At standstill, the rotor speed, N, =O. Now, ifthe 3-phase supply is given to the three- phase winding, as discussed previously, a 2 pole rotating magnetic field is created, which rotate at Synchronous speed, say in the clockwise direction. With respect to the stator field, the rotor is considered to be moving in the anticlockwise direction. This causes the flux linking the rotor conductors to change continuously. Hence, according to Faraday’s first law of electromagnetic induction, emf is induced in the rotor conductors. At the particular instant when the stator N-north pole is at the top and S- south pole at the bottom as in Fig 2.4 (a), all the conductors under the north pole region gets their emfinduced in the outward direction and all the conductors under the south pole region get their emf induced in the inward direction. Further, emf in the conductors which are immediately under the pole space is maximum while for those away from the pole axis is less. Also the emfin the conductors which are nearer to the magnetic neutral axis is minimum. According to Faraday’s second law, the amount of emf induced is directly proportional to the rate of change of flux.

The above statement can be visualised as shown in Fig 2.4. In figure 2.4 (a), emf distribution is shown as the maximum emf is induced in the conductors which are near to the pole axis. Then the lagging rotor current will have its maximum value in conductors nearer to an axis which lags the pole axis by the impedance angle @, . The resultant current distribution in the various conductors is as shown in Fig 2.4 (b). The current directions of the conductors lying in regions A and D is in the outward direction and of conductors lying in regions B and C is in the inward direction. 2.2.1 Scarting Torque Applying Fleming’s left hand rule, the outward current carrying conductors as in Fig 2.4 (b), lying under the N-pole region ie, conductors in region A develop a force in them in the clockwise direction. This force F,, is therefore in the same direction as that of the rotating magnetic field. In region B, the direction of magnetic field remains the same as the N-pole field, but the current direction is reversed. Hence force F., is in anticlockwise direction. Applying similar argument, F,. is in clockwise direction and Fp is in anticlockwise direction. The total force acting on the shaft F, is therefore, a nA wn Fm Fat Fy t Fe + ky 2.13) Fs (F gt Fo )-UFy t Fy) (2.14) The total resultant force and hence torque are in the same direction as that of the rotating magnetic field. This is due to two reasons: (i) number of conductors lying in regions A and C are more than that in regions B and D and (ii) conductors in regions B and D link with the weak magnetic field present near the interpolar axis and the amount of current in them is relatively less in value. Based on the fundamental equation for force developed as given by equation 2.15 FSBIL (2.15) the equation for torque T,, developed is 7,29 |!;| cos 0, Ty=C; @|l,| cos 0, (2.16) where C,. is a constant.

Parr I: Induction Machines ile when starting torque developed is more thari the sum of the frictional torque Ty in the machine and load torque 7, , then the excess torque will cause acceleration in the rotor in the same direction as that of the rotating magnetic field. ‘Thus if the direction of rotation is to be changed then the direction of the rotating magnetic field is to be reversed which can be achieved by reversing the phase sequence of the 3-phase supply given to the motor. 2.2.2 Condition for Maximum Starting Torque For the sake of simplicity, if the voltage drop in the stator winding is neglected, then eau, and Ey au, where U,, is the voltage applied to the stator winding per phase at the time of starting, Further, U,, $ Uj, where U;, is the rated voltage of the stator winding per phase.

This fact is to be considered carefully when starters are employed for the motor to reduce starting current by applying reduced voliage. 2.2.4 Starting Torque in Cage Motor in squirrel cage Induction motors, the rotor circuit is a permanently closed circuit, not accessible for external connection. Hence the amount of starting torque developed depends entirely on the voliage applied to the stator winding.

Hence the E, emf induced in the rotor under running condition. which is directly proportional to the relative speed according to Faraday’s laws of electromagnetic Induction, also starts reducing. Assuming the flux to remain constant, __ Relative speed at running Relative speed at starting (2.26) Due to the reason discussed earlier,the frequency of the emf induced in the rotor under running condition, /,, .also decreases in the same proportion. Se = fo As the [(N, -N,)/N, ]term appears repeatedly in equations 2.26 and 2.27, i be convenient to express this term in short with the following definition. 2.3.1 Slip The relative speed under running condition, (., - NV, jis actually a measure of how far the rotor speed N, , fatl back the speed of the rotating magnetic field, N,. The other meaning of falling back is slipping. Casper 2 : Principle of Operation 29 Hence, the term slip speed is defined as the difference between Synchronous speed and rotor speed. Slip speed = N,—W, (2.28) Slip speed or relative speed expressed as the ratio of Synchronous speed is defined as slip denoted by letter S NN, ie S (2.29) % slip,%05 = (230) 2.3.2. Torque Under Running Condition Applying the definition of slip S, equations 2.26 and 2,27 become Ey, =SE 231) S=M (2.32) As the frequency of the rotor changes with changes in speed, the inductive reactance of the rotor under running condition, .X, also undergoes similar changes Xpy = 2H fyy by = 8 (28 f, ty) Xx, = SX, (2.33) Hence the rotor circuit impedance under running condition Z), is expressed as 2+ Ny Zy = Ry + j SX (234) \2a_] = Y RF + (5X2)?

Equation 2.40 is a general equation which accounts for the torque developed under all operating conditions, whether running or starting, For example, at starting condition, when N, =0 Substituting S=1 in equation 2.40 will give rise to equation 2.17 whichis the equation for starting torque. Hence the emf induced in the rotor is maximum at standstill or starting condition (E) . This gives rise to a large starting current, which is 5 to 7 times the rated current if rated voltage is applied to the stator winding. A large starting current will result in the starting torque 7,, developed to be much greater than the load and frictional torque in the machine. The excess torque accelerates the rotor in the same direction as that of the rotating magnetic field causing the slip to become less. than one. Reduction in slip causes reduction in E, and hence J, gets decreased. The torque developed becomes less then the starting torque but still may be greater than (T,, +7, ) causing further acceleration. At one stage the rotor speed will be large enough to give a low value of slip, usually around 4% at full load torque, which causes the rotor emf and current to produce just enough torque demanded by the load. The motor speed will reach a steady value when the torque developed, Ty = (T;, +7, )- This speed is always less than the Synchronous speed. If for some reason if the rotor speed equals Synchronous speed, it will lead to absence of relative speed and hence the rotor emf and current will become zero and the machine will not be able to develop any mechanical torque to run as a motor. 2.3.3 Effect of Supply Voltage on Torque and Slip If U;is the voltage applied to the stator winding per phase under running condition, and the voltage drop in the stator winding is neglected, then gal, and E, aU, The torque equation 2.40 can be approximated as ean SU;?Ry RE +(SX3) Further, with a very low value of S under normal running condition, the term (SY,)* can be neglected when compared with R? since, T= Cry aa You have either reached a page that is unavailable for viewing or reached your viewing limit for this book. aa You have either reached a page that is unavailable for viewing or reached your viewing limit for this book. aa You have either reached a page that is unavailable for viewing or reached your viewing limit for this book. 34 Parr I: Induction Machines 3.5 ohm respectively.

The centre of circle C will lie on this line. Join points A and B by a straight line. Hence line AB forms a chord of the circle. Draw a perpendicular bisector to line AB as shown by the dotted line in fig 3.10.

Any point, like L,P, T, etc., on the circle which lies in between points A and B gives a operating point of the Induction machine in motor mode with 1 > S>0. There exists a vertical distance between the circle and line AB. This vertical distance corresponds to power delivered by the motor. Hence line AB is named as the output line.

The generator draws the required lagging reactive-power from the power grid. Drawing of lagging reactive-power is equivalent to supplying of leading reactive-power to the grid and hence the complex-power delivered by the Induction generator is always at leading power-factor. Figure 6.7 shows the connection diagram. Initially the induction machine is started as motor by drawing real and lagging reactive power from the power grid. Then the speed of the machine is increased above the synchronous speed by its prime-mover. At this super-synchronous speed the machine operates as generator reversing the real-power flow direction, now from the machine towards the grid The performance prediction of separately excited Induction generator can be carried out using equivalent circuit in a very similar manner as explained for Induction motor in the previous chapter.

Increase in voltage will further increase the exciting current /, causing further increase in voltage in a cumulative manner. The final steady voltage induced on no-load is given by the intersection of magnetisation characteristic of the machine and capacitance Volt-Amp characteristic as shown in Figure 6.10. For example, when the generator is driven at a speed of N,, and if the capacitance value is C, then the operating point (1) gives the final voltage the machine has on no-load condition. To obtain further increase in voltage at the same speed N,, , the capacitance value has to be increased to C,. The slope of the capacitance volt-Amp gets decreased with the new operating point as (2). Alternatively, a higher voltage can be obtained by the same capacitance C, if the speed is increased to V,..

Motors of smaller capacity drawing about 6 times the full load current from the supply mains may not be a problem and hence they may be directly switched on. For example, a2.2 kW, 415 V, 3-phase motor may have its full-load current around 4A and therefore 6 times full load current works out to be 24A, A sudden drawing of 24A current from the supply mains will not be a problem whereas the same 6 times full-load current for a 22 kW motor will work out to be around 240A which is highly unwarranted. It causes sudden depression in the voltage of the supply mains causing disturbances to other loads connected nearby on the same supply mains. Hence, the electrical supply authorities forbid the users of large capacity Induction motors to directly switch on their motors, Therefore, the main aim of starters used for large capacity motors is to reduce the starting current. With reference to Ohm’s law, the starting current in an Induction motor can be reduced by either reducing the voltage applied to the motor or by increasing the impedance of the motor circuit. The latter principle is possible only in slip-ring Induction motors. Apart from having necessary control devices to limit the starting current, all starters are provided with protective devices to protect the motor against overload and loss of supply voltage. The different methods of starting 3-phase Induction motors are given below: The methods of starting squirrel-cage motors alone are () _ Direct-on-line (DOL) starting Gi) Stator resistance starters The methods of starting both squirrel-cage and slip-ring motors are Autotransformer starters 140 Parr I: Induction Machines (iv) Star-delta starters ‘The method of starting slip-ring motors alone is (v) Rotor resistance starters 7.1.1 DOL Starter This starter, as its name implies, switches the motor directly onto the supply. As these starters do not have any control devices to reduce the starting current, the use of this starter is restricted to motors of smaller capacity, upto about 2.2 kW. The DOL starter essentially consists of a main contactor and other protective devices as shown in Figure 7.1. M, — TOLRC es ee START Fig 7.1 DOL starter MI, M2 and M3 are the main contactors capable of making and braking the motor line currents. They are of normally-open (NO) type contactors. Contactor A is also a NO type contactor of lesser current carrying capacity. These contactors are operated by arelay coil UVRC, the under voltage relay coil which is excited from the supply line voltage. S, is also.a NO type contactor connected in series with UVRC. S,, 5; and S, are of normally - closed (NC) type and are connected in series with UVRC. NC contactor Sy, is operated by relay coils OLRC, the over load release coils connected in series with the motor supply line. Terminals of the auxiliary contactor A are connected with the terminals of NO contactor 5, On pressing contactor S, the UVRC gets excited which causes the main contactors M1, M2, M3 and the auxiliary contactor A to get closed. Closing of contactor A retains the supply to the UVRC even after the start button, contactor Sj, is released. The motor is thus connected (o the normal supply voltage directly and draws a current of Typ, per phase at the time of switching on. /,,, is the blocked rotor current per phase at normal voltage, the estimation of which was explained in section 5.2 Charter 7 : Control of Three-phase Induction Motors 141 Contactors S, is used to disconnect the supply from the motor by manually pressing it. Remote operation of the same can be achieved with the help of contactor S; . When the supply voltage cither fails totally or falls below certain value, the holding power given by UVRC comes down causing the main contactor to be opened and thus protecting the motor against under voltage or loss of voltage. Overload protection to the motor is given by contactor S, operated by OLRC. When the line current exceeds the preset value, OLRC causes S, to open causing loss of voltage to UVRC which in turn opens the main contactors. - 2a N,Ty twas derivedin section 3.2 that Power inputto the rotor fi, = —E9—= = @, qT, and rotor copper loss W;4) = 5 P, o.

Par! : Induction Machines 7.1.2 Stator Resistance Starter In this type of starters, the starting current is limited by adding a resistance in the stator circuit causing a drop in voltage and hence by applying the reduced voltage to the stator. Figure 7.2 shows the schematic diagram of stator resistance starter. a= *'bnu Nelo 3-ph variable resistance Fig 7.2 Stator resistance starter schematic diagram Addition of a resistance in the stator side causes the voltage available to the motor x times the normal voltage.

Tet (7.10) Hence in stator resistance starter, the starting current drawn by the motor as well as the current drawn from the supply gets reduced by x? times whereas the starting torque developed gets reduced by x’ times. Because of this nature of large reduction of starting torque, stator resistance starter is very rarely used. 7.1.39 Autotransformer Starter This starter again makes use of applying reduced voltage to the motor to limit the starting current. The reduced voltage is obtained with the help of fixed tap autotransformer. An autotransformer starter is suitable for all types of 3-phase Induction motor be it squirrel -cage or slip-ring, and star-connected or delta-connected.

Cuaprer 7 : Control of Three-phase Induction Motors 145 Hence, the supply line current and starting torque are reduced by the same ratio, K? times than in DOL starting. 7.1.4 Star—Delta Starter This starter can be used for 3-phase Induction motors which are built to run normally with a delta-connected stator winding. At the time of starting, the starter reconnects the stator winding in star, thus causing only 1/./3 times the normal voltage available across each winding which will result in reduction of starting current. Figure 7.5 shows the wiring diagram of a manually operated star-delta starter. Fig 7.5 Star—Dela starter The manual star-delta starter essentially consists of only a six pole double throw switch apart from other protective devices. The 3-phase supply lines obtained through amain TPST switch are connected to moving contacts 1, 3 and 5. Connections from moving contacts 2, 4 6 are taken to motor stator winding finishing terminals 2, 4 and 6 through over Toad release coils, OLRC. Connections from the lower fixed contacts 1,3 and S are taken to motor stator winding starting terminals 1, 3 and 5. The lower fixed contacts 2, 4 and 6 are connected together to form the star point during starting conditions. Among the top fixed contacts, 2 and 3, 4 and 5, 6 and 1 are connected together. Further there are interconnections between top and bottom fixed contacts with numbers 1, 3, 5. The operating handle mechanism is similar to that explained for autotransformer starter in section 7.1.3. To start the motor, the handle is pushed downwards to the START position which causes the stator winding to get connected in star. With U,, as the line voltage applied to the motor terminals, the per phase voltage available across each stator winding is U,, /,/3 , i.e.1/ 3 times the normal voltage.

Cuapter 7: Control of Three-phase Induction Motors 159 frequency. Hence, the speed of the motor can be controlled right from zero to twice the normal speed in a continuous manner. Frequency variation from zero to 50 Hz is accompanied by corresponding variation with output voltage so that the required operating flug a (U/f) is maintained. At higher frequency range, the output voltage is held constant at the rated voltage of the motor. ret Power | Mu electronic Vaan U, f, 415v. 1 controller sonnet ° Feedback Fig 7.8 Variable frequency drive The following are some of the advantages of this method of speed control by power electronic controllers: () continuous speed variation from zero to twice the normal speed is available. ii) controller units are compact in size occupying less space. Units may also be fitted within the motor frame. (ii) controllers also provide soft-starting facility. No extra starter is required. (iv) programmable controllers enable the operator to enter instructions, like required speed, change in speed, etc. in digital form. (¥)__ closed loop operation is also possible, making the motor to runat the desired speed irrespective of change in load condition. (vi) controllers also provide electric braking and reversing. The disadvantages are (i) cost of the controller may be around ten times the cost of the motor. Of course this is likely to decrease in the future. (i) a skilled operator is required for improving reliability of operation. 7.2.2 Speed Control by Changing Number of Poles This method of speed control provides change in speed at two or four discrete levels by changing the number of poles of the rotating magnetic field. The squirrel cage rotor can adjust itself to the rotating magnetic field for different poles whereas the slip ring rotor is to be wound for the same number of poles as that of the stator winding. Hence, this method of speed control is applicable only for squirrel cage Induction motors. aa You have either reached a page that is unavailable for viewing or reached your viewing limit for this
