2. 1.1.0 Definition of AC Machines (Rotating)
AC machines are generators that convert mechanical energy to ac electrical energy and motors
that convert ac electrical energy to mechanical energy.
The fundamental principles of ac machines are very simple, but unfortunately, they are somewhat
obscured by the complicated construction of real machines. There are two major classes of ac
machines
a) Synchronous Machines
b) Induction Machines.
Synchronous machines are motors and generators whose magnetic field current is supplied by a
separate de power source.
Induction machines are motors and generators whose field current is supplied by magnetic
induction (transformer action) into their field windings.

3. 1.1.1 Introduction of Rotating machines
1. Electromechanical energy conversion takes place whenever a change in flux is associated with mechanical motion.
2. Speed voltage is generated in a coil when there is relative movement between the coil and magnetic field.
3. Alternating emf is generated if the change in flux linkage of the coil is cyclic.
4. The field windings which are the primary source of flux in a machine are, therefore, arranged to produce cyclic north-south
space distribution of poles.
5. A cylindrical structure is a natural choice for such a machine.
6. Coils which are the seats of induced emf’s are several in number in practical machines and are suitably connected in
series/parallels and in star/delta
7. 3-phase connection to give the desired voltage and to supply the rated current. This arrangement is called the armature
winding. When the armature coils carry currents they produce their own magnetic field which interacting with the magnetic
field of the field winding produces electro-magnetic torque tending to align the two magnetic fields.
8. The field winding and armature winding are appropriately positioned on a common magnetic circuit composed of two parts—
the stator (stationary member) and the rotor (rotating member). The stator is the annular portion of a cylinder in which rotates
a cylindrical rotor; there being an appropriate clearance (air-gap) between the two. The rotor axle is carried on two bearings
which are housed in two end-covers bolted on the two sides of the stator .

4. 1.1.1 Introduction of Rotating machines CONTD…
8. The stator and rotor are made of high permeability magnetic material—silicon steel. Further, the member in
which the flux rotates is built up of thin insulated laminations to reduce eddy-current loss.
9. Since electromechanical energy conversion requires relative motion between the field and armature
winding, either of these could be placed on the stator or rotor. Because of practical convenience, field
windings are normally placed on the rotor in the class of machines called the synchronous machines; the
cross-sectional view of one such machine .The armature winding is housed in suitably
shaped slots cut out in the stator. The field winding is supplied with dc from an external source, called the
exciter, through a pair of slip-rings .The exciter is generally coupled directly to the
rotor shaft of the synchronous machine.
10. In an induction machine the stator has a 3-phase winding which draws a component of current from the
mains to set up a cyclic flux pattern in the air-gap which rotates at a speed corresponding to supply frequency
(synchronous speed ) and the rotor is either properly wound and the winding is short-circuited or is merely
a set of copper (or aluminium) bars placed in rotor slots short-circuited at each end by means of end-rings.

9. MMF and flux distribution
on AC Machine
• The flux in a real machine doesn't behave in a simple manner
assumed above since there is ferromagnetic rotor in the center of
machine with small air gap between rotor and stator.
– The reluctance of air gap is much higher than the reluctance of either the rotor and
stator. So the flux density vector B takes the shortest possible path across the air gap
and jumps perpendicularly between the rotor and stator.
How to produce sinusoidal voltage ? The flux density
must vary in sinusoidal manner.
The most straight foreword way to achieve a
sinusoidal variations of m.m.f along the surface of air
gap is to distribute the turns of the windings that
produce the m.m.f in closely spaced slots and to vary
the number of conductors in each slot in sinusoidal
manner.

15. Introduction
• Three-phase induction motors are the most common
and frequently encountered machines in industry
– simple design, rugged, low-price, easy maintenance
– wide range of power ratings: fractional horsepower to 10
MW
– run essentially as constant speed from no-load to full load
– Its speed depends on the frequency of the power source
• not easy to have variable speed control
• requires a variable-frequency power-electronic drive for optimal
speed control

16. Construction
• An induction motor has two main parts
– a stationary stator
• consisting of a steel frame that supports a hollow,
cylindrical core
• core, constructed from stacked laminations (why?),
having a number of evenly spaced slots, providing the
space for the stator winding
Stator of IM

17. Construction
– a revolving rotor
• composed of punched laminations, stacked to create a series of rotor
slots, providing space for the rotor winding
• one of two types of rotor windings
• conventional 3-phase windings made of insulated wire (wound-rotor) »
similar to the winding on the stator
• aluminum bus bars shorted together at the ends by two aluminum rings,
forming a squirrel-cage shaped circuit (squirrel-cage)
• Two basic design types depending on the rotor design
– squirrel-cage: conducting bars laid into slots and shorted at both
ends by shorting rings.
– wound-rotor: complete set of three-phase windings exactly as the
stator. Usually Y-connected, the ends of the three rotor wires are
connected to 3 slip rings on the rotor shaft. In this way, the rotor
circuit is accessible.

27. Principle of operation
• This rotating magnetic field cuts the rotor windings and
produces an induced voltage in the rotor windings
• Due to the fact that the rotor windings are short circuited, for
both squirrel cage and wound-rotor, and induced current
flows in the rotor windings
• The rotor current produces another magnetic field
• A torque is produced as a result of the interaction of those
two magnetic fields
Where ind is the induced torque and BR and BS are the magnetic
flux densities of the rotor and the stator respectively
ind R s
kB B

28. Induction motor speed
• At what speed will the IM run?
– Can the IM run at the synchronous speed, why?
– If rotor runs at the synchronous speed, which is the
same speed of the rotating magnetic field, then the
rotor will appear stationary to the rotating magnetic
field and the rotating magnetic field will not cut the
rotor. So, no induced current will flow in the rotor and
no rotor magnetic flux will be produced so no torque
is generated and the rotor speed will fall below the
synchronous speed
– When the speed falls, the rotating magnetic field will
cut the rotor windings and a torque is produced
Department of Electrical Engineering
ELECTRICAL MACHINE II
28
29. Induction motor speed
• So, the IM will always run at a speed lower than
the synchronous speed
• The difference between the motor speed and the
synchronous speed is called the Slip
Where nslip= slip speed

nm = mechanical shaft speed of the motor

if the rotor is stationary

Slip may be expressed as a percentage by multiplying the above
eq. by 100, notice that the slip is a ratio and doesn’t have units
Department of Electrical Engineering

31. Induction Motors and Transformers
• Both IM and transformer works on the principle of
induced voltage
– Transformer: voltage applied to the primary windings
produce an induced voltage in the secondary windings
– Induction motor: voltage applied to the stator windings
produce an induced voltage in the rotor windings
– The difference is that, in the case of the induction motor,
the secondary windings can move
– Due to the rotation of the rotor (the secondary winding of
the IM), the induced voltage in it does not have the same
frequency of the stator (the primary) voltage

• What would be the frequency of the rotor’s
induced voltage at any speed nm?
• When the rotor is blocked (s=1) , the frequency
of the induced voltage is equal to the supply
frequency
• On the other hand, if the rotor runs at
synchronous speed (s = 0), the frequency will be
zero

34. Torque
• While the input to the induction motor is electrical
power, its output is mechanical power and for that
we should know some terms and quantities
related to mechanical power
• Any mechanical load applied to the motor shaft
will introduce a Torque on the motor shaft. This
torque is related to the motor output power and
the rotor speed

38. Equivalent Circuit
• The induction motor is similar to the transformer
with the exception that its secondary windings are
free to rotate
As we noticed in the transformer, it is easier if we can
combine these two circuits in one circuit but there are
some difficulties

39. Equivalent Circuit
• When the rotor is locked (or blocked), i.e. s =1,
the largest voltage and rotor frequency are
induced in the rotor, Why?
• On the other side, if the rotor rotates at
synchronous speed, i.e. s = 0, the induced
voltage and frequency in the rotor will be equal
to zero, Why?

voltage obtained at s = 1(loacked rotor)

• The same is true for the frequency, i.e.
• It is known that
• So, as the frequency of the induced voltage in the
rotor changes, the reactance of the rotor circuit
also changes

64. Comments
1. The induced torque is zero at synchronous
speed. Discussed earlier.
2. The curve is nearly linear between no-load and
full load. In this range, the rotor resistance is
much greater than the reactance, so the rotor
current, torque increase linearly with the slip.
3. There is a maximum possible torque that can’t
be exceeded. This torque is called pullout torque
and is 2 to 3 times the rated full-load torque.
Department of Electrical Engineering
ELECTRICAL MACHINE II
64
65. Comments
4. The starting torque of the motor is slightly
higher than its full-load torque, so the motor
will start carrying any load it can supply at
full load.
5. The torque of the motor for a given slip
varies as the square of the applied voltage.
6. If the rotor is driven faster than synchronous
speed it will run as a generator, converting
mechanical power to electric power.

81. Determination of motor parameters
• Due to the similarity between the induction
motor equivalent circuit and the transformer
equivalent circuit, same tests are used to
determine the values of the motor parameters.
– DC test: determine the stator resistance R1
– No-load test: determine the rotational losses and
magnetization current (similar to no-load test in
Transformers).
– Locked-rotor test: determine the rotor and stator
impedances (similar to short-circuit test in
Transformers).

82. DC test
– The purpose of the DC test is to determine R1. A
variable DC voltage source is connected
between two stator terminals.
– The DC source is adjusted to provide
approximately rated stator current, and the
resistance between the two stator leads is
determined from the voltmeter and ammeter
readings.

Overview of Three-Phase Induction Motor
• Induction motors are used worldwide in many residential,
commercial, industrial, and utility applications.
• Induction Motors transform electrical energy into
mechanical energy.
• It can be part of a pump or fan, or connected to some other
form of mechanical equipment such as a winder, conveyor,
or mixer.

Introduction
General aspects
• A induction machine can be used as either a
induction generator or a induction motor.
• Induction motors are popularly used in the
industry
• Focus on three-phase induction motor
• Main features: cheap and low maintenance
• Main disadvantages: speed control is not easy
99. 99
Construction
• The three basic parts of an AC motor are the rotor, stator, and
enclosure.
• The stator and the rotor are electrical circuits that perform as
electromagnets.

Construction (Stator construction)
• The stator is the stationary electrical part of the motor.
• The stator core of a National Electrical Manufacturers Association
(NEMA) motor is made up of several hundred thin laminations.
• Stator laminations are stacked together forming a hollow cylinder. Coils
of insulated wire are inserted into slots of the stator core.
• Electromagnetism is the principle behind motor operation. Each
grouping of coils, together with the steel core it surrounds, form an
electromagnet. The stator windings are connected directly to the power
source.
102. Department of Electrical Engineering

Construction (Rotor construction)
• The rotor is the rotating part of the
electromagnetic circuit.
• It can be found in two types:
– Squirrel cage
– Wound rotor
• However, the most common type of rotor is
the “squirrel cage” rotor.
103. Department of Electrical Engineering
ELECTRICAL MACHINE II
103
• Induction motor types:
Squirrel cage type:
Rotor winding is composed of copper bars embedded in
the rotor slots and shorted at both end by end rings
Simple, low cost, robust, low maintenance
Wound rotor type:
Rotor winding is wound by wires. The winding terminals
can be connected to external circuits through slip rings
and brushes.
Easy to control speed, more expensive.

Construction (Enclosure)
• The enclosure consists of a frame (or yoke) and two end
brackets (or bearing housings). The stator is mounted inside the
frame. The rotor fits inside the stator with a slight air gap
separating it from the stator. There is NO direct physical
connection between the rotor and the stator.
Stator
Rotor
Air gap
• The enclosure also protects the electrical
and operating parts of the motor from
harmful effects of the environment in which
the motor operates. Bearings, mounted on
the shaft, support the rotor and allow it to
turn. A fan, also mounted on the shaft, is
used on the motor shown below for cooling.

Rotating Magnetic Field
• When a 3 phase stator winding is connected to a 3 phase voltage
supply, 3 phase current will flow in the windings, which also will
induced 3 phase flux in the stator.
• These flux will rotate at a speed called a Synchronous Speed, ns.
The flux is called as Rotating magnetic Field
• Synchronous speed: speed of rotating flux

Slip and Rotor Speed
1. Slip s
– The rotor speed of an Induction machine is different from the speed
of Rotating magnetic field. The % difference of the speed is called slip.
– Where; ns = synchronous speed (rpm)
nr = mechanical speed of rotor (rpm)
– under normal operating conditions, s= 0.01 ~ 0.05, which is very
small and the actual speed is very close to synchronous speed.
– Note that : s is not negligible

Principle of Operation
• Torque producing mechanism
When a 3 phase stator winding is connected to a 3
phase voltage supply, 3 phase current will flow in the
windings, hence the stator is energized.
A rotating flux Φ is produced in the air gap. The flux
Φ induces a voltage Ea in the rotor winding (like a
transformer).
The induced voltage produces rotor current, if rotor
circuit is closed.
The rotor current interacts with the flux Φ, producing
torque. The rotor rotates in the direction of the
rotating flux.

Note:
● Never use three-phase equivalent circuit. Always use
per- phase equivalent circuit.
● The equivalent circuit always bases on the Y
connection regardless of the actual connection of the

● Induction machine equivalent circuit is very similar to
the single-phase equivalent circuit of transformer. It is
composed of stator circuit and rotor circuit

Speed Control
• There are 3 types of speed control of 3 phase
induction machines
i. Varying rotor resistance
ii. Varying supply voltage
iii. Varying supply voltage and supply frequency
135. Department of Electrical Engineering
ELECTRICAL MACHINE II
135
Varying rotor resistance
• For wound rotor only
• Speed is decreasing
• Constant maximum torque
• The speed at which max
torque occurs changes
• Disadvantages:
– large speed regulation
– Power loss in Rext – reduce
the efficiency

Varying supply voltage
• Maximum torque changes
• The speed which at max
torque occurs is constant (at
max torque, XR=RR/s
• Relatively simple method –
uses power electronics circuit
for voltage controller
• Suitable for fan type load
• Disadvantages :
– Large speed regulation since ~

• The best method since
supply voltage and supply
frequency is varied to keep
V/f constant
• Maintain speed regulation
• uses power electronics
circuit for frequency and
voltage controller
• Constant maximum torque
