Induction Induction motor Motor

AI Thread Summary

To achieve speeds exceeding 3000 RPM with a 2-pole induction motor on a 50Hz supply, increasing the frequency is essential. This can be accomplished using an inverter or Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) to adjust the motor's operating frequency. Additionally, mechanical solutions such as gearboxes or pulleys can also be employed to enhance speed. It's important to consider the motor's design limitations and ensure that any modifications do not lead to overheating or damage. Proper implementation of these techniques can effectively boost induction motor speed.

Hello friends

Synchronous speed = 120f/p p is number of pole pairs OK

So in my country 50hz 3- phase source is provided so that I can only archived 3000 rpm speed by 2 pole induction motor… how I can archived more then 3000Rpm ( Is that possible or not ) if yes then how ?

thanks

You'd have to use an inverter to increase the frequency.

Or gear box or pulleys.

is That by VFD ?

Thread 'Underwater piezoelectric sensor array receive sensitivity'

Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...

Thread 'Following up on the recent thread about Earth Resistance measurements'

I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...

Thread 'Beauty of old electrical and measuring things, etc.'

Even as a kid, I saw beauty in old devices. That made me want to understand how they worked. I had lots of old things that I keep and now reviving. Old things need to work to see the beauty. Here's what I've done so far. Two views of the gadgets shelves and my small work space: Here's a close up look at the meters, gauges and other measuring things: This is what I think of as surface-mount electrical components and wiring. The components are very old and shows how...
