Induction Motor Components
An induction motor has two main parts:
• A stator- The stator is the static part of the
motor. The main function of the stator is to generate
the rotating magnetic field.
• A rotor-The rotating part of the motor is known
as the rotor. The rotor core and the rotor winding
are the part of the rotor.

7. Induction Motor: Stator

The rotor is separated from the stator by a small air-gap which ranges from 0.4 mm to 4
mm,
depending on the power and the size of the motor.
Three Main Parts Of Stator
❑ Stator frame : It is the outer most part of the three phase induction motor.
Its main function is to support the stator, core and the winding.
❑ Stator core : The main function of the stator core is to carry alternating flux.
In order to reduce the eddy current losses the stator core is
laminated.
❑ Stator winding : The three phases of the winding are connected either in star or delta,
when this winding is excited by three phase ac supply it
produces

Fluxes: Φ1 = Φm sin (wt)
Φ2 = Φm sin (wt -120°)
Φ3 = Φm sin (wt -240°)
ΦT = Φ1 + Φ2 + Φ3 =
1.5 Φm
So the magnitude of resultant
flux is 1.5 Φm time the maximum
value of flux

Slip Ring Rotor or Wound
Rotor These three carbon brushes are further connected externally to a
rheostat(external resistance) to have a higher resistance during
starting and thus higher starting torque..
Advantages of Slip ring Rotor
1. High Starting Torqe
2. The rotor resistance starter can be used.
Disadvantage
1. Less Efficient
2. Costly
3. Complicated Construction
12. 12Squirrel Cage Rotor
• The slots are not made parallel to each other but are bit
skewed, it makes the working of motor more smooth and
quieter
• Almost 90% of the three-phase AC Induction motors are of
this type.
Advantages of Squirrel Cage Induction
Rotor
1. Its construction is very simple.
2. As there are no brushes and slip ring, these
motors requires less maintenance.
3. High Efficiency
4. Cheap
Disadvantage
1. Low starting torque
2. Starting current high
13. PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
13
⮚ An AC current is applied in the stator armature which generates
a flux in the stator magnetic circuit.
⮚ This flux induces an emf in the conducting bars of rotor as they
are “cut” by the flux while the magnet is being moved
(E = BVL (Faraday’s Law))
⮚ A current flows in the rotor circuit due to the induced emf, which
in term produces a force, (F = BIL) can be changed to the
torque as the output.
14. Where ‘
fs - Supply frequency
P - no. of poles
Ns - Synchronous speed in rpm (rotating magnetic field speed)
Nr -(Rotor speed)
The speed of the physical rotor and the speed of the rotating magnetic
field in the stator must be different,
If (Ns = Nr (Rotor speed) ⮚Rotor does not rotate (due to relatively same)
(Ns > Nr (Rotor speed) ⮚ Rotor wants to catch the rotating magnetic
pole
(Ns< Nr (Rotor speed) ⮚ In case of induction generator

The relationship between the supply frequency, poles, and the synchronous speed

Synchronous Speed
=
15. • Motor never runs at synchronous speed but lower actual rotor speed
• The difference between synchronous speed & rotor speed is called as slip speed.
• If this slip speed is measured W.R.T synchronous speed, then it is called as slip (s).
• Percentage slip,
Speed and slip
16. • If the rotor runs at synchronous speed ( Ns = NR )
s = 0 (imaginary condition,At no-load the slip is nearly zero)
• If the rotor is stationary (NR = 0)
s = 1 (at stand still)
• Operation beyond the range 0 < S < 1
• Speed of Rotor
• Frequency of rotor
• Relation B/W supply frequency & rotor frequency (Hz)
Speed and slip
17. Speed and slip
Example:
If the induced emf in the stator of an 8 pole induction
motor has a frequency of 50 Hz and that in the rotor is 1.5
Hz, at what speed is the motor running and what is the
slip?
