POWER STAGES IN AN INDUCTION MOTOR

 

The various stages of energy transformation in an induction motor and also various losses occurring in it are shown in the flow diagram of Fig. 5.20.


The various losses during this energy conversion are:

 

1. Fixed losses

(i) Stator Iron loss (ii) Friction and windage loss.

Stator iron loss consists of eddy current and hysteresis losses. These losses depends on the supply frequency and the flux density in the iron core. It is practically constant. The rotor iron loss is negligible because the frequency of rotor current under normal running condition is 'small.

 

2. Variable losses

(i) Stator Cu loss

(ii) Rotor Cu loss

The following points may be noted from the power flow diagram.

(a) Stator input, Pi = Stator output + Stator losses

 = Stator output + Stator Iron loss + Stator Cu loss

(b) Rotor input, Pr = Stator output

(c) Mechanical power, Pm = Rotor input ‒ Rotor cu loss

= Pr ‒ Rotor Cu loss

This mechanical power available is the gross rotor output and will produce a gross torque Tg.

(d) Mechanical power at shaft, Pout = Pm ‒ Friction and windage loss.

Mechanical power available at the shaft produces a shaft torque Tsh

 Pm‒Pout Friction and windage loss
