Induction Machines: Motor Braking

In many systems, motors are stopped simply by natural deceleration. The time this takes depends solely on the inertia and resistive torque of the machine the motor drives. However, the time often needs to be cut down and electrical braking is a simple and efficient solution.1. Plugging2. Dynamic Braking3. Regenerative Braking

2. Dynamic Brakinga. DC Dynamic brakingTo obtain this type of braking the stator of a running induction motor is connected to a dc supply.

2. Dynamic Brakingb. Zero Sequence Dynamic braking All the three stator phases are connected in series and single phase ac or dc is connected across them (as shown in the figure). This type of connection is called zero-sequence connection, because current in all the stator windings are co-phasal.

2. Dynamic Brakingc. AC Dynamic braking (wound rotor)This type of braking is obtained when the motor is made to run on a single phase supply by disconnecting any one of the three phase from the source, and it is either left open or it is connected with another phase.

3. Regenerative BrakingIt take place only if the speed of the motor is greater than synchronous speed and in the same direction as the rotating field. This happens by switching the operating frequency to a lower frequency, so the torque and slip is negative and the machine acts as a generator supplying power to the supply network.

CoggingThe rotor of particularly squirrel cage induction motor sometimes refuse to start at all particularly a when the voltage is low. This happens of stator teeth is equal to the number of rotor teeth ,and therefore due to the magnetic locking or cogging. It is found that the reluctance of magnetic paths is minimum when the stator and rotor teeth comes in front of each other, it is in such position of minimum reluctance that the stator tends to remain fixed thus causes serious trouble during starting. This can be easily overcome by: 1. Making number of rotor slots more than the number of stator

slots.2. Giving slightly skew to the rotor slots (skewed) i.e. to arrange

the stack of rotor laminations so that the rotor slots are "skewed" or angled with respect to the axis of rotation.

Motor Service Factor

Service factor is defined as the permissible amount of overload a motor will handle within defined temperature limits. When voltage and frequency are maintained at nameplate rated values, the motor may be overloaded up to the horsepower obtained by multiplying the rated horsepower by the service factor shown on the nameplate.The standard service factor is 1.15. The service factor is required to appear on the nameplate only if it is higher than 1.0.
