3. INTRODUCTION
Construction of a single phase
induction motor is similar to
the construction of three phase
induction motor having squirrel
cage rotor, except that the stator is
wound for single phase supply.
Stator is also provided with a
'starting winding' which is used
only for starting purpose. This can
be understood from the schematic
of single phase induction motor at
the left.
4. WORKING PRINCIPLE OF SINGLE PHASE INDUCTION MOTOR
When the stator of a single phase motor is fed with single phase supply, it
produces alternating flux in the stator winding. The alternating current
flowing through stator winding causes induced current in the rotor bars (of
the squirrel cage rotor ) according to Faraday's law of electromagnetic
induction. This induced current in the rotor will also produce alternating flux.
Even after both alternating fluxes are set up, the motor fails to start (the
reason is explained below). However, if the rotor is given a initial start by
external force in either direction, then motor accelerates to its final speed and
keeps running with its rated speed. This behavior of a single phase motor can
be explained by double-field revolving theory.
5. DOUBLE-FIELD REVOLVING THEORY
The double-field revolving theory
states that, any alternating quantity
(here, alternating flux) can be
resolved into two components
having magnitude half of the
maximum magnitude of the
alternating quantity, and both these
components rotating in opposite
direction.
Following figures will help you
understanding the double field
revolving theory.
6. WHY SINGLE PHASE INDUCTION MOTOR IS NOT SELF
STARTING?
The stator of a single phase induction motor is wound with single phase
winding. When the stator is fed with a single phase supply, it produces
alternating flux (which alternates along one space axis only). Alternating flux
acting on a squirrel cage rotor can not produce rotation, only revolving
flux can. That is why a single phase induction motor is not self starting.
7. HOW TO MAKE SINGLE PHASE INDUCTION MOTOR SELF
STARTING?
As explained above, single phase induction motor is not self-starting. To
make it self-starting, it can be temporarily converted into a two-phase motor
while starting. This can be achieved by introducing an additional 'starting
winding' also called as auxillary winding.
Hence, stator of a single phase motor has two windings: (i) Main winding and
(ii) Starting winding (auxillary winding). These two windings are connected
in parallel across a single phase supply and are spaced 90 electrical degrees
apart. Phase difference of 90 degree can be achieved by connecting a
capacitor in series with the starting winding.
8. Hence the motor behaves like a two-phase motor and the stator produces
revolving magnetic field which causes rotor to run. Once motor gathers
speed, say up to 80 or 90% of its normal speed, the starting winding gets
disconnected form the circuit by means of a centrifugal switch, and the motor
runs only on main winding.
9. METHODS FOR MAKING SINGLE PHASE INDUCTION AS SELF
STARTING MOTOR
Split phase induction motor,
Capacitor start inductor motor,
Capacitor start capacitor run induction motor,
Shaded pole induction motor.
Permanent split capacitor motor or single value capacitor motor.
10. SPLIT PHASE INDUCTION MOTOR
In addition to the main winding or running winding, the stator of single
phase induction motor carries another winding called auxiliary
winding or starting winding. A centrifugal switch is connected in series
with auxiliary winding. The purpose of this switch is to disconnect the
auxiliary winding from the main circuit when the motor attains a speed
up to 75 to 80% of the synchronous speed. We know that the running
winding is inductive in nature. Our aim is to create the phase
difference between the two winding and this is possible if the starting
winding carries high resistance. Let us say Irun is the current flowing
through the main or running winding, Istart is the current flowing in
starting winding, and VTis the supply voltage.
11. In split phase induction motor the starting and main current get spitted
from each other by some angle so this motor got its name as split phase
induction motor.
13. The working principle and construction of Capacitor start inductor motors
and capacitor start capacitor run induction motors are almost the same. We
already know that single phase induction motor is not self starting because
the magnetic field produced is not rotating type. In order to produce rotating
magnetic field there must be some phase difference.
14. In case of split phase induction motor we use resistance for creating phase
difference but here we use capacitor for this purpose.So, in capacitor start
inductor motor and capacitor start capacitor run induction motor we are
using two winding, the main winding and the starting winding. With starting
winding we connect a capacitor so the current flowing in the capacitor i.e
Ist leads the applied voltage by some angle, φst.
