Do eddy currents in a rotor core of an induction motor create torque proportional to the coil current of a squirrel cage?
In a rotor of an induction motor, the core plates and wire coil conductors have non-zero thicknesses. Therefore, eddy currents non-zero too. And they approximately proportional to the coil current of ...

Motor power rotating, with weight difference
If the motor is rotating a large rotor, and the mechanical resistance increasing with rpm, will the power consumption be the same even if there is a difference in weight on the rotor during steady-...

Why is there no torque in electric motors when the Iq current is zero and Id current is not zero?
Random vector position of stator current ( Id + Iq = Is ):
Now I draw the stator current/flux vector as shown below where “Iq = 0” and “Id ≠ 0”:
From lecture I’ve learned that the south pole of the ...

Why don't I get a bell curve in the torque vs rotor position plot?
I have designed a inset PMSM. I tried to plot the torque vs. rotor position plot but I am not getting a bell curve. Like at the torque must be maximum only when theta is 90 degrees.
I don't know where ...

Controller of BLDC internal vs external rotor
The 3-phase permanent magnet BLDC motors come in two types, internal rotor and external rotor. Mostly the external rotor types are called Hub motors as they are used in electric bikes. Both types of ...

How do I quantify the effect of stack lamination on a stator and on a rotor of an induction motor?
Image from here:
I would like to design (or to calculate the existing of) an induction motor, either 3 phases or single phase. I understand that both stator and the rotor made from a stacked-laminated ...

How does adding resistance to a wound rotor induction motor increase torque?
I read that adding resistance to the rotor circuit causes the induced current in the rotor to be more in phase with the stator current. This produces a very small phase angle difference between the ...

Calculate ideal unloaded rotor speed
I have the following problem:
MY ATTEMPT
Okay, I've found two formulas that will definitely help me solve this problem:
The first is \$S=\frac{N_s-N}{N_s} \$, where \$S\$ is the slip, \$N_s\$ ...

Induction motor starting torque and pull out torque
Recently I was doing some work on the induction motor where I found some general theory on starting speed torque curve of the induction motor. Where the theory is the starting torque will be 1.5x of ...
