INDUCTION MOTOR CONTROL UNIT-3
1. Stator voltage control ØThe speed can be controlled by varying the stator voltage. Ø Here the supply frequency is constant. Equivalent circuit of induction motor R 1& X 1 - the stator side resistance & reactance. V 1 - stator voltage (or) supply voltage. f 1 - the supply frequency. I 1, I 2 - the stator and rotor side current respectively. R 2 & X 2 - the rotor resistance & reactance respectively.
Therefore the equation (3. 3) becomes
Results Ø The starting torque α Square of stator voltage, rotor resistance. 1/α The square of the leakage reactance. Ø A small change in stator voltage results in a relatively large change in torque. Ø the slip at maximum torque remains unchanged Figure 3. 2. Speed Vs Torque of Induction motor under stator voltage
Ø It is not a function of voltage. Ø This method is not used for wide range of speed control and constant torque load. Consider ØThe induction motor has no stator copper loss, friction loss, windage and core loss. ØElectrical power converted into mechanical power (developed power in the rotor). Pm = Total air gap power transferred across the air gap for a three phase induction motor (Pag) – copper loss in the rotor (Pcur)
From equation (3. 6) Ø For low speed, slip will be very high. Therefore Efficiency will be poor. Ø It is an excellent method for reducing starting current and increasing the efficiency during light load conditions. Ø The losses are reduced, mainly core losses, which are proportional to the square of the voltage. ØThis method is only suitable for speed control below the rated speed, since the terminal voltage cannot exceeds rated value to prevent the damage of the winding’s insulations.
ØWe have seen that the torque is directly proportional to the transformation ratio K.

ØEach thyristors is the above circuits are fired in the sequence of their numbers with a phase difference of 60 degree like three phase full converter. Let Rin – Resistance in the induction motor. Xin – Inductive reactance in the induction motor. Therefore, the phase angle For the firing angle , the motor terminal voltage remains constant and nearly equal to the supply voltage. Both motor voltage and current are sinusoidal. For higher values of firing angle , the current flows discontinuously and the motor voltage decreases with an increase in. The zero motor voltage and current are reached at =150 degree and 180 degree
