Abstract: | Experience accumulated at the Scientific-Research Design Technological Institute of the Electric Machine Industry (NIPTIEM, JSC) in the field of developing variable-frequency induction motors for different applications is generalized. A design approach in which a basic induction motor is supplemented (depending on the motor function) by add-on modules is described. When used in combination with one another, these modules yield all of the necessary embodiments. Thus, both the peculiarities of the power supply from a frequency converter and the requirements of concrete consumers in regards to operating modes, design, and function are taken into account in the process of motor development. |
