Motor Acceleration

Why to Do MS Studies?
• Ensure that motor will start with voltage drop
• If Tst<Tload at s=1, then motor will not start
• If Tm=Tload at s<sr, motor can not reach rated speed
• Torque varies as (voltage)^2
• Ensure that voltage drop will not disrupt other loads
• Utility bus voltage >95%
• MCC bus voltage >80%
• Generation bus drop <7%
• Ensure motor feeders sized adequately

Operation of Induction
Motor
• AC applied to stator winding
• Creates a rotating stator magnetic field in air gap
• Field induces currents (voltages) in rotor
• Rotor currents create rotor magnetic field in air gap
• Torque is produced by interaction of air gap fields

7. Copyright 2003 Operation Technology, Inc. – Workshop Notes: Motor Acceleration Slide 7
Slip Frequency
• Slip represents the inability of the rotor to
keep up with the stator magnetic field
• Slip frequency
S = (ωs-ωn)/ωs where ωs = 120f/P
ωn = mech speed

13. Copyright 2003 Operation Technology, Inc. – Workshop Notes: Motor Acceleration Slide 13
Voltage Variation
• Torque is proportional to V^2
• Current is proportional to V

14. Copyright 2003 Operation Technology, Inc. – Workshop Notes: Motor Acceleration Slide 14
Frequency Variation
• As frequency decreases, peak torque shifts toward lower
speed as synchronous speed decreases.
• As frequency decrease, current increases due reduced
impedance.

15. Copyright 2003 Operation Technology, Inc. – Workshop Notes: Motor Acceleration Slide 15
Number of Poles Variation
• As Pole number increases, peak torque shifts toward lower
speed as synchronous speed decreases.

16. Copyright 2003 Operation Technology, Inc. – Workshop Notes: Motor Acceleration Slide 16
Rotor Z Variation
• Increasing rotor Z will shift peak torque towards lower
speed.

Modeling of Elements
• Switching motors – Zlr, circuit model, or
characteristic model
• Synch generator - constant voltage behind
X’d
• Utility - constant voltage behind X”d
• Branches – Same as in Load Flow
• Non-switching Load – Same as Load flow
• All elements must be initially energized,
including motors to start

constant kVA load after starting
– Run load flow when any change in system
• Dynamic Motor Starting

Static versus Dynamic
• Use Static Model When
– Concerned with effect of motor starting on other
loads
– Missing dynamic motor information
• Use Dynamic Model When
