Stator and rotor house a three phase distributed AC winding
-

The three rotor phases are short circuited
-

The 3 stator phases are fed by three phase voltage & current system (I
s
, frequency f
s
),
and excite fundamental air gap field (amplitude B
o,s
), which rotates with speed n
syn
.
-

If rotor turns with n =

n
syn
( = ASYNCHRONOUSLY), then B
o,s
induces in rotor winding
the voltage U

per phase, which drives rotor phase current I

.

Magnetizing air gap field and magnetizing current
-

Stator and rotor fundamental air gap field may be regarded as excited by sinusoidal
distributed current stator and rotor load. The superposition of both fundamentals
yields the resulting magnetizing fundamental air gap field wave.
-

Each sinusoidal distributed air gap field wave can be described by a space vector in the
machines axial cross section plane. Length of the space vector = amplitude of the field
wave, orientation of the space vector = position of north pole. Alternatively the space
vectors B or + or I are used.

From air gap power we derive electromagnetic torque:
-

Breakdown slip: : Breakdown slip s
b
in motor mode (s
b
> 0) and
generator mode (s
b
< 0) have the same absolute value:
-

Breakdown torque:
Motor breakdown torque is positive, generator breakdown torque is negative: In
generator mode stator resistive losses must also be covered by air gap power,
hence demanding a bigger air gap electromagnetic torque. Hence generator
breakdown torque is by that amount bigger than motor breakdown torque.

No-load: No-load speed is synchronous speed: Slip is ZERO.
Example:
No-load current: ca. 1/3 of rated

Example:
o = 0.08, x
s
= 2.6: i(s = 1) = 1/(2.6

0.08) = 4.8: starting current is 4.8-times rated
current. Bigger motors have smaller leakage flux, so bigger starting current: typically
5 ... 7-times rated current.

Starting of slip-ring induction machine with
external rotor resistance
-

External resistance per phase are connected to rotor phase via slip rings and
carbon brush contacts. Hence rotor total resistance is increased. By that also the
starting torque is increased. Maximum starting torque is motor breakdown torque.
Starting slip s = 1 is then also breakdown slip. Starting current is reduced to
breakdown current.
-

By keeping , the parameters of the equivalent circuit remain
unchanged. .
-

External resistance R

How to define value of external rotor resistance ?
-

Demand: Starting torque (at s = 1) shall be breakdown torque:
Example:
Slip-ring induction machine: Data: M
b
/M
N
= 2.65, Breakdown slip 0.2
- Without external rotor resistance we get: Starting torque M
1
= 0.65M
N
= 0.24M
b
(case a).
- At R
v
/R
r
= 4 starting torque is breakdown torque ! (case c).
-

" Shear" (linear dilation by R
v
) of M(n)- resp. M(s)-characteristic. The torque
value M
e
at slip s* (and R
v
= 0) occurs at the new slip s !
-

Result: Improved (quicker) starting due to increased torque and decreased
current, BUT additional losses in external resistance. Advantage:These losses
occur OUTSIDE of machine, hence they do not heat up the rotor winding.

Torque and power line
-

Electric real power at motor operation: point P, slip s:
Real component of stator current phasor
-

Power balance:
-

At s = 1 it is n = 0; at s = 0 it is M
e
= 0. Hence mechanical power P
m
is zero in both points.
Connection line : Power line" : Partitions real current into and .
Section is proportional to mechanical power !
-

: At the points and torque M
e
is zero.
Connection line : Torque line" .
Section is proportional to electromagnetic torque.
-

Points at lower semi-circle: generator mode, real power is negative (cos < 0).
-

and s

Stator current always lags behind stator voltage; hence induction machines are
always inductive elements in motor as well as in generator mode !

Circle parameterization according to slip values,
done with straight slip line"
Complex slip line G
s
(s) is generated
from three known operation points
(here: P
0
, P
1
and P


) and an
arbitrarily taken Centre of inversion
S, lying on the circle.
- Slip line is linear parameterized
in s.
- Slip line must be parallel to line
S-P


.
Intersection of connecting straight
line (from S and selected slip value
on slip line) with circle diagram
delivers the operation point for
selected slip s, hence the locus of
the stator current phasor for that
selected slip s.
