UNIT I INTRODUCTION
1).What is an electrical drives?
A drive consists of various system combined together for the purpose of motion
control or movement control. Especially the drives which employ electric motors for
motion control are known as Electrical drives.
Group drive
Individual drive
Multimotor drive
The variety of electric drives with wide range of speed, power and torque ratings
are available.
The efficiency is higher as no load losses are less.
C
They have short time overload capacity.
SV
= C/A
ET
Where C= amount of heat required to raise the temperature of the motor boby by 1 degree
Celsius in / c
A= amount of heat dissipated by the motor per unit time per degree Celsius in J/S c
C
11).What are the three methods of operation for electrics drive?
SV
Steady state
Acceleration including starting
Deceleration including stopping
2.To obtain the maximum efficiency on their full load without any damaging.
The ratio of ON time(Ton) of the drive to total time period(Ton +Toff) is called
duty factor.
When a machine is switched off from the mains or when the load on the motor is
reduced, the machine cools. The curve obtained temperature drop Vs time when the drive
is switched off or load on the drive is removed.
