Introduction to AC Machines

Classification of AC Rotating Machines
•Synchronous Machines:
•Synchronous Generators: A primary source of electrical energy. •Synchronous Motors: Used as motors as well as power factor compensators (synchronous condensers).

•Asynchronous (Induction) Machines:
•Induction Motors: Most widely used electrical motors in both domestic and industrial applications. •Induction Generators: Due to lack of a separate field excitation, these machines are rarely used as generators.

Energy Conversion
• Generators convert mechanical energy to electric energy. • Motors convert electric energy to mechanical energy. • The construction of motors and generators are similar. • Every generator can operate as a motor and vice versa. • The energy or power balance is : – Generator: Mechanical power = electric power + losses – Motor: Electric Power = Mechanical Power + losses.

AC winding design
The windings used in rotating electrical machines can be classified as  Concentrated Windings • All the winding turns are wound together in series to form one multi-turn coil • All the turns have the same magnetic axis • Examples of concentrated winding are – field windings for salient-pole synchronous machines – D.C. machines – Primary and secondary windings of a transformer  Distributed Windings • All the winding turns are arranged in several full-pitch or

    Most electromagnetic motors are rotary, but linear types also exist. In a rotary motor, the rotating part (usually on the inside) is called the rotor, and the stationary part is called the stator. The motor contains electromagnets that are wound on a frame. Though this frame is often called the armature. The electromagnetic field works as shown in the diagrams below.…

    A frequently misunderstood subject related to electric motors is insulation class and temperature ratings. This paper tries to describe, in basic terms, the temperature relationships that are meaningful in standard AC induction motors. Some of the same information can be applied to DC motors but DC motors are more specialized and some of the ratings are slightly different.…

    First, electric cars are amazing, but what is more amazing is the motor that makes one work. Electric motors get charged from an electricity source like a house in an outlet. That electricity is then stored in the motor until the driver uses it. The engine converts the electricity into energy which is sent to the wheels to power the car. This kind of technology can be used in many ways, somthing as simple as electricity getting converted and sent to wheels can open up an oppurtunity of items to be done.…

    There is a link between electricity and magnetism. Electricity can produce magnetism and magnetism can produce electricity. This is why generators use magnets to get electricity moving. A magnet spins inside a coil of wire to get those free electrons moving around thus creating electricity. Generators can be very small or large depending on how much electricity is needed. A generator can be powered by a number of different sources including, but not limited to, wind, water, steam, heat, and other things.…
