    Speed Control of Three Phase Slip Ring Induction Motor at Variable Load Condition

    Uploaded by

    hi
    This document describes an experiment to control the speed of a 3-phase slip ring induction motor under variable load conditions using rotor resistance control. It lists the required apparatus, provides the circuit diagram, discusses the theory behind rotor rheostat control, describes the procedures for no load and load operation, and includes sections for observations, precautions, and discussion questions. The goal is to vary the external rotor resistance and record the corresponding changes in motor speed both without and with an applied load on the generator coupled to the induction motor.

    SPEED CONTROL OF THREE PHASE SLIP RING INDUCTION MOTOR AT

    VARIABLE LOAD CONDITION


    AIM OF THE EXPERIMENT:

    To Control the speed control of 3 phase slip ring induction motor by rotor resistance control
    at variable load condition.

    APPARATUS REQUIRED:

    S.NO NAME OF THE APPARATUS TYPE RANGE QUANTITY


    1 Ammeter MI 0-5A 1
    2 Ammeter MC 0-10A 1
    3 Ammeter MC 0-500mA 1
    4 Voltmeter MI 0-600V 1
    5 Voltmeter MC 0-300V 1
    6 Auto transformer 3 phase 0-470V 1
    7 Rheostat - 300Ω/1.7A 1

    CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:
    THEORY:

    Rotor rheostat control:

    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.

    Fig.1 Per Phase Equivalent Circuit of a 3-Phase Induction Motor

    To determine expressions for torque and power, the equivalent circuit in Fig.(1) must be
    analyzed using its Thevenin equivalent looking into the network from the rotor side (from
    terminals A and B). The stator impedance Rs + jXs1 and the magnetization branch jXm
    (neglecting resistance) converted to Thevenin impedance are given by Re + jXe. The
    equivalent Thevenin voltage is given by Ve.

    The mechanical torque produced is thus a function of rotor resistance and the slip. It builds
    up with increase in rotor speed.

    th
    At low values of slip (s), i.e near synchronous speed, the term dominates the other
    denominator terms, the effective torque thus reduces to

    th

    The above expression can be used to determine the effect of varying rotor resistance on the
    electromagnetic torque developed in the motor. As the rotor resistance is reduced, the
    torque increases almost linearly for near-synchronous speed operation. For slip-ring
    induction motors, rotor terminals are brought out and rheostats of suitable range can be
    connected in each phase.
    PROCEDURE:

    NO LOAD OPERATION

    1) Connections are given as per the circuit diagram.


    2) Keep the external rotor resistance at maximum resistance position.
    3) Switch on the supply & increase the input voltage to stator winding up to its rated
    value.
    4) Measure the speed.
    5) Now decrease the rotor resistance in steps & note the corresponding values of speed.
    Draw the graph of rotor resistance versus speed.

    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.
    6) Then decrease the rotor resistance in steps and note down the corresponding values
    of speed. Draw the graph of rotor resistance versus speed.
