C. Saravanan, J. Sathiswar, S. Raja . Performance of Three Phase Induction Motor using Modified Stator Winding. International Journal of Computer Applications. 46, 1 ( May 2012), 1-4. DOI=10.5120/6869-8952
Induction machine is an important class of electrical machines which finds wide applications as a motor in industry and in its single phase form in several domestic applications. More than 85% of industrial motors in use today are in fact induction motors. The minimization of electrical energy consumption through better motor design becomes a major concern. This paper proposes a novel technique to improve the performance of induction motor. By using a modified stator winding arrangement the efficiency has been improved by 7% and tested in laboratory. Experimental results and simulations results have been presented to validate the results.
