induction motor n (Engineering / Electrical Engineering) a type of brushless electric motor in which an alternating supply fed to the windings of the stator creates a magnetic field that induces a current in the windings of the rotor. Rotation of the rotor results from the interaction of the magnetic field created by the rotor current with the field of the stator How to thank TFD for its existence?

High electrical conductivity of copper in the rotor structure of an induction motor can achieve an 11-19% reduction in overall energy losses by increasing energy efficiency, however, diecasting a copper-base rotor is challenging. Designers will benefit by integrating variable-speed control of a single-phase induction motor, realizing better efficiency, quieter operation, greater range while extending the life of the motor. by utilizing high-power semiconductors, a high-voltage electrical system, and a high-horsepower induction motor combined with an optimized (and downsized) internal combustion engine. |
