2. What is Electrical Drives
?????????????
Motion control is called as drives.
It may use any of the prime mover such as diesel
engine, gas or steam turbine , steam engine or any
electrical motors etc.
3. Electrical Drives
Drives are systems employed for motion control
Require prime movers
Drives that employ electric motors as
prime movers are known as Electrical Drives
4. History of Electrical Drives:
• In year 1838,Prof B.S.Lakobi tested a DC
motor supplied from a storage battery and
used it to drive a screw propeller on a boat.

6. Advantages of Electrical Drives
• Have flexible control characteristics
• Available in wide range of torque , speed and
power
• Not pollute the environment
• Adaptable in almost any operating conditions
• Can operate in all the four quadrant of
operations
• Smooth speed control
7. AC and DC Drives:
Advantages of DC drives:
• DC motors are very versatile for the purpose of
speed control
Disadvantage of DC drives :
• Sparking at the brushes limit both the highest
speed of operation and design capacity of
motor.
• Also the ripple content of the motor current
due to processes of rectification impairs the
commutation capability of the motor.
8. Disadvantages of AC Drives:
• In past AC motors were mainly used in fixed speed
applications
• When controlled using conventional methods , only
stepped speeds are possible with a limited range of
speed control.
Advantages of AC Drives:
With thyristor power converter ,the variable voltage and
variable frequency supply the speed control of
Induction motor is making AC drive competitive with
DC drives.
13. Power Modulator:-
• Modulates flow of power from the source to the
motor in such a manner that motor is imparted
speed torque characteristics required by the load
• During transient operations , such as starting,
braking and speed reversal . It restricts the source
and motor current within permissible value
• Converts electrical energy of the source in the
form suitable to motor.
• Selects the mode of operation
14. Selection Criteria for Electric Machines
• Cost
• Thermal Capacity
• Efficiency
• Torque-speed profile
• Acceleration
• Power density, volume of motor/Torque to
weight ratio
• Ripple, cogging torques
• Peak torque capability
15. Requirement of an adjustable speed Drive:
• Stable operation: The speed torque
characteristics of the motor should be such
that stable operation of the drive is assured
in all four quadrants.
• The drive motor should also have a good
transient response.
16. Load:-
• The load has certain torque speed
characteristic
• A motor having speed torque characteristic
and capabilities compatible to the load
requirement is chosen
17. Example of cranes and hoist drives
Requirement of Drives:
The motion of the crane hook is in all three
dimensions
In crane drives , the acceleration and
retardation must be uniform . This is more
important than the speed control
For exact positioning of the load creep speed
must be possible.
18. classification of power modulator:
(a)Converters:
Need for converter arises when nature of the
available electrical power is different than what is
required for the motor.
1.ac to dc converter
2.dc to dc converter
3.Inverters
4.cycloconverters
19. (b)Variable impedances
Variable resistors are commonly used for the
control of dc and ac drives.
Can be controlled manually or automatic .
Stepless variation of resistance can be
obtained using a semiconductor switch in
parallel with a fixed resistance; variation of
duty ratio of the switch gives a stepless
variation in effective value of the resistance.
20. (c)Switching Circuits:
Need:-
For changing motor connections to change it’s
quadrant of operation
For operating motors and drives according to
predetermined sequence
To disconnect motor when abnormal
conditions occur

26. Four quadrant operation
Speed conventions:-
Motor speed is considered +ve ,when rotating in
the forward direction.
forward direction :
• for the drive which operate only in one
direction, their normal speed taken as it’s
forward speed.
• for up-down motion drive, up speed is
taken as forward speed.
27. Torque conventions:-
+ve torque: the torque which produce
acceleration or +ve rate of change of speed
in forward direction.
-ve torque -deceleration
28. MOTORING AND BRAKING
• Motoring: converts Electrical energy into
mechanical energy
• Braking: converts mechanical energy into
Electrical energy and thus oppose the
motion.
30. 4Q OPERATION: HOIST SYSTEM
Convention:
Upward motion of the cage: Positive speed
Weight of the empty cage < Counterweight
Weight of the full-loaded cage > Counterweight
Principle:
What causes the motion?
Motor : motoring P =T = +ve
Load (counterweight) : braking P =T = -ve
31. Four functions of hoist
1.Movement of loaded cage upward
2.Lowering of the loaded cage
3.Upward empty cage
4 downward empty cage

If the losses in the transmission is neglected , then the kinetic energy due
to equivalent inertia must be the same as the kinetic energy of various
moving parts .Thus:
