The document discusses various types of induction motors, focusing on three-phase and single-phase induction motors, including squirrel cage and slip ring motors. It explains the principle of operation involving the creation of rotating magnetic flux (rmf) and its interaction with stationary rotor conductors to induce electromotive force (emf), resulting in rotor movement. The discussion emphasizes the relationship between rotor speed, relative motion, induced emf, and the generation of torque necessary for rotation.

5. Step 1:
Create Rotating Magnetic Flux (RMF) in stator
What is RMF & How to Create it?

6. RMF CREATION
(USING THREE PHASE SUPPLY)
When a three phase supply is given to a three phase windings and each
windings are displaced by 120 degree then the resultant will be a

Schematic Structure

7. Step 2 : The RMF created in the stator cuts the stationary conductor in
the rotor and creates induced EMF – (Because of F.L.E.M.I)

8. Step 3 : The induced EMF in the rotor opposes the very cause i.e. Relative
motion between RMF and Stationary conductor

- due to Relative motion
Rotor conductors
(Stationary)
Oppose the very cause (i.e Relative

9. Step 4 : As the result rotor conductors will rotate in the same direction
of RMF

(i.e. Relative motion b/n RMF
& stationary conductors) &
try to make R.M = 0
As the result rotor conductors rotates in
the same direction of RMF

- due to Relative motion

10. Important Note: Rotor speed (N) will never reach the RMF speed (Ns). So only there
will be continuous opposition and continuous rotation

Condition: N < Ns
• No Relative Motion
• So No induced EMF
• So No opposition or Lenz law
• So NO ROTATION IN THE ROTOR!
SLIP SPEED (SNs) = Ns- N
What happen when Ns = N?
or Slip speed = zero?
