What are Torque Slip Characteristics?
Torque-slip characteristics, also known as the torque-speed characteristics or torque-speed curve, are Used in understanding the behavior of an induction motor which are under different load conditions. It is the relationship between the developed torque of an induction motor and its slip, which is the difference between synchronous speed.
Now we will go through Torque Slip Characteristics of Single Phase and Three Phase Induction motor
Torque Slip Characteristics of Induction Motor
The torque slip characteristics of an induction motor is a plot that shows the relationship between the torque produced by the motor and the slip. Where slip is the difference between the speed of the rotating magnetic field produced by the stator and rotor speed. The torque slip characteristics are essential for optimizing the motor’s performance. The torque slip curve provides essential characteristics of the motor including its capabilities, efficiency and also operating range.
It is used to design and analyze motor systems for various applications. These are used in applications where high starting torque and high pull-up torque are required. It is used to predict motor behavioral characteristics under different load conditions and facilitates the design of control strategies to enhance performance.
Here in this article, we will discuss the definition of torque slip characteristics, torque slip characteristics in three-phase induction motors as well as single-phase induction motors, the effect of rotor resistance on torque-slip curve, advantages, disadvantages and applications of induction motors.
