Speed Control of 3 Phase Slip Ring Induction Motor
Speed Control of 3 Phase Slip Ring Induction Motor
Speed Control of 3 Phase Slip Ring Induction Motor
To Control the speed control of 3 phase slip ring induction motor by rotor resistance control
at variable load condition.
APPARATUS REQUIRED:
THEORY:
In this method, which is applicable to slip ring induction motors alone, the motor
speed is reduced by introducing an external resistance in the rotor circuit. This method is in
fact similar to the armature rheostat control method of dc shunt motors.
CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:
PRECAUTION:
The motor input current should not exceed its rated value.
PROCEDURE:
NO LOAD OPERATION
LOAD OPERATION
1) Follow the above steps of NO LOAD operation to start the slip ring induction motor.
2) Now the field of DC generator was energised so as to get the output voltage of 220V.
3) Now switch ON the external load on the generator.
4) This causes the generator to get loaded & this indirectly loads the induction motor.
7) Then decrease the rotor resistance in steps & note the corresponding values of
speed.
8) Draw the graph of rotor resistance versus speed.
