Three-phase Induction Machines
Introduction The induction machine is the most rugged and
the most widely used machine in industry. Both stator and rotor winding carry alternating
currents. The alternating current (ac) is supplied to the
stator winding directly and to the rotor winding by induction – hence the name induction machine.
Application (1-phase): washing machines, ceiling fans, refrigerators, blenders, juice mixers, stereo turntables, etc.
2-phase induction motors are used primarily as servomotors in a control system.
Application 3-phase: pumps, fans, compressors, paper mills, textile mills, etc.

Construction
Construction
Unlike dc machines, induction machines have a uniform air gap. The stator is composed of laminations of high-grade sheet steel.
A three-phase winding is put in slots cut on the inner surface of the stator frame.
The rotor also consists of laminated ferromagnetic material, with slots cut on the outer surface.

Construction
The three-phase winding are displaced from each other by 120 electrical degrees in space
Current flows in a phase coil produce a sinusoidally distributed mmf wave centered on the axis of the coil.
Alternating current in each coil produces a pulsating mmf wave. Mmf waves are displaced by 120 degrees in space from each other. Resultant mmf wave is rotating along the air gap with constant peak.

Equivalent Circuit Model
Assume small volt
drop across R1 and X1 – ease computation of I and I2’,
V1 = E1
Due to machine air gap, I is high- 30-50% of full –load
current, X1 is high, core loss (Rc) is lumped into the
mechanical losses
Equivalent Circuit Model
R12<<(X1+Xm)2
X1 << Xm
For simplification, replace V1, R1,X1, Xm with Vth, Rth, Xth ( at terminal Pag)
Equivalent Circuit ParametersRc, Xm, R1, X1, X2, R2
No-Load Test The parameters of the equivalent circuit, Rc, Xm, R1, X1,
X2, and R2 can be determined from the results of a no-load test, a blocked-rotor test and from measurement of the dc resistance of the stator winding.
The no-load test, like the open circuit test on a transformer, gives information about exciting current and rotational losses.
This test is performed by applying balanced polyphase voltages (415V) to the stator windings at the rated frequency(50Hz).
The rotor is kept uncoupled from any mechanical load.

Blocked-Rotor Test The blocked-rotor test, like the short-circuit test on a
transformer, gives information about leakage impedances. In this test the rotor is blocked so that the motor cannot rotate,
and balanced polyphase voltages are applied to the stator terminal ( increases voltage until stator current reaches its rated value).
The blocked-rotor test should be performed under the same conditions of rotor current and frequency that will prevail in the normal operating conditions.
The IEEE recommends a frequency of 25% of the rated frequency for the blocked-rotor test. However, for normal motors of less than 20 hp rating, the effects of frequency are negligible and the blocked-rotor test can be performed directly at the rated frequency
