Single Phase Induction Motor

Starting Methods of Single Phase Induction Motors

by

As discussed in earlier post Revolving Field Theory of Single Phase Induction Motors, a single phase induction motor with main stator winding alone has no inherent starting torque as the main stator winding only produces stationary pulsating air gap flux wave. For the development of starting torque, rotating field at the starting must be produced. There … Read more

Revolving Field Theory of Single Phase Induction Motors

by

Revolving Field Theory is used for the analysis of behavior of Single Phase Induction Motor. Before going into the details of Revolving Field Theory, first we should know why do we need to study this theory? Well, a Single Phase Induction Motor with its main winding alone can be represented as shown in figure below. … Read more
