    Why does a 90° phase shift maximize induction motor torque?

    Capacitor-start induction motors use a capacitor in series with the start winding to create torque to start the motor. After the motor gets nearly up to full speed, a switch takes the capacitor out of the circuit. I understand the torque is caused by the phase shift created by having the...
