  2. Rotating magnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_magnetic_field

    The rotating magnetic field is the key principle in the operation of induction machines.The induction motor consists of a stator and rotor.In the stator a group of fixed windings are so arranged that a two phase current, for example, produces a magnetic field which rotates at an angular velocity determined by the frequency of the alternating current.

  3. Mathematics of three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_three-phase...

    The field produced by a single-phase winding can provide energy to a motor already rotating, but without auxiliary mechanisms the motor will not accelerate from a stop. A rotating magnetic field of steady amplitude requires that all three phase currents be equal in magnitude, and accurately displaced one-third of a cycle in phase.

  4. Rotor (electric) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotor_(electric)

    In a three-phase induction machine, alternating current supplied to the stator windings energizes it to create a rotating magnetic flux. [11] The flux generates a magnetic field in the air gap between the stator and the rotor and induces a voltage which produces current through the rotor bars. The rotor circuit is shorted and current flows in ...

  5. Induction motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_motor

    A three-phase power supply provides a rotating magnetic field in an induction motor. Inherent slip – unequal rotation frequency of stator field and the rotor. In both induction and synchronous motors, the AC power supplied to the motor's stator creates a magnetic field that rotates in synchronism with the AC oscillations. Whereas a ...

  6. Synchronous motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronous_motor

    In synchronous motors, the stator carries 3 phase currents and produces 3 phase rotating magnetic flux (and therefore a rotating magnetic field). The rotor eventually locks in with the rotating magnetic field and rotates along with it. Once the rotor field locks in with the rotating magnetic field, the motor is said to be synched.

  7. Three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-phase_electric_power

    Three-phase electric machine with rotating magnetic fields. An important class of three-phase load is the electric motor. A three-phase induction motor has a simple design, inherently high starting torque and high efficiency. Such motors are applied in industry for many applications.

  8. Electromagnetic induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_induction

    The dot product B·dA corresponds to an infinitesimal amount of magnetic flux. In more visual terms, the magnetic flux through the wire loop is proportional to the number of magnetic field lines that pass through the loop. When the flux through the surface changes, Faraday's law of induction says that the wire loop acquires an electromotive ...

  9. Induction regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_regulator

    If the rotor terminals are connected to a three-phase electric power network, a rotating magnetic field will be driven into the magnetic core. The resulting flux will produce an emf on the windings of the stator with the particularity that if rotor and stator are physically shifted by an angle α, then the electric phase shifting of both ...
