An electric motor (or electrical motor) is an electric machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor’s magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding. This interaction generates a force (as perFaraday’s...
We know that choosing the right AC or DC motor is crucial for efficiency. When it comes to selecting the right electric motor you can trust the experts at Gainesville Industrial Electrical. With nearly 65 years in the business, and over 80 years of experience, our elite team stands ready ...
This can mean that the electric motor can be brushed, brushless, synchronous or even uses permanent magnets. AC motors AC motors use an alternating current to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy. They only require a low power upon start-up, and they allow for controlled acceleration...
Electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy by an electric motor (rotation) The rotation of the motor rotor turns the gearbox, causing the wheels to revolve and the automobile to move. Types of Electric Vehicles There are four types of Electric Vehicles: Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) ...
Like a hybrid, a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) uses a gasoline engine, a battery, and an electric motor. However, a PHEV’s battery is larger, and the motor is more powerful than you’ll find in a hybrid because a plug-in hybrid can drive tens of miles only on...
The electric motor plays a key role in virtually all industrial machinery. It converts electrical force into mechanical one. In a result its technical characteristics determine the performance of the equipment. The main parameters of any engine are such characteristics as: number of revolutions; typ...
In the paper a procedure for determining the observer parameters for selected types of electrical motors is discussed. The procedure is based on the identity observer developed by Luenberger. The paper presents determining the parameters using calculation examples for the DC motor and also for the ...
The EV’s performance directly depends on the electrical motor specifications. The performance of the motor is determined by the torque-speed and power-speed characteristic of the traction motor. Figure 1: Torque/power – speed traction motor characteristics. ...
Unlike a PSC motor, a CSR/CSCR motor must also have a starting relay that will cut the start capacitor out of the electrical circuit once the motor has gotten up to run speed. The run capacitor then remains in the circuit to keep the motor spinning properly. Definition of a PTC Start...
If you want an electric vehicle in your garage, you have a few options to consider. This slideshow looks at what's on offer in the world of electrified transportation.
