Abstract

Abstruct- The possibility of obtaining various torque-speed characteristics from a wound-rotor induction motor by operating such a motor close to its rotor resonance is described. It is shown that, by the use of reactive rotor networks, high starting and braking torques may be obtained. An induction motor operating with this proposed technique of speed control also reacts favorably to nonsinusoidal supply voltages and has an improved power factor. No auxiliary machines or power supplies are required and any slip ring induction motor of conventional design can be used. NOMENCLATURE Capacitance per phase externally connected (F). Air gap voltage (V). Rotor current (A). Constant, 27r/60. Rotor inductance per phase (augmented by externally connected inductance) (H). Rotor speed (dmin). Synchronous speed (dmin). Power transferred across the air gap (W). Rotor resistance per phase (0).
