AC SERVO MOTOR

 AC SERVO MOTOR

WHAT IS A SERVO MOTOR ?

  • Servo Motor is also known as a Control Motor.
  • They are used in Feedback Control Systems but not used for continuous energy conversion.
  • The Principle of Servo Motor is similar to that of other electromagnetic Motors but the Construction and Operation are different.
  • Power rating varies from fraction of watt to hundreds of watts.

BLOCK DIAGRAM OF AC SERVO MOTOR



  • Like wise in all other control systems,the input is passed through the Amplifier and then through the Servo Motor and if the output obtained is desirable the there is not use of the feedback loop.
  • If the output Obtained is not desirable then the error in the output is fed back to the error detector and then through the Amplifier,as the error is very minute it is to be amplified and the given to the Servo motor.

CLASSIFICATION OF SERVO MOTORS


AC SERVO MOTOR CONSTRUCTION

              (i)Stator (ii) Rotor

Stator has two Distributed Windings with a displacement of 90  ̊̊ Electrical.

One winding is called Main or Reference winding and is excited by a constant AC voltage.

The other winding is called control winding and is excited by variable control voltage of the same frequency as that of the Reference winding.

SWITCHING TRANSIENTS IN TRANSFORMER

Switching Transients: The word Transients is always very Scary for me but not any more hahaaa...........what about you???? Well coming to the point...why do these Switching Transients occur in a Transformer. When the switch is closed when the voltage is maximum...then the flux required by the core is zero and the available flux in the core is also zero and hence NORMAL OPERATION is sufficient When the switch is closed when the voltage is crossing zero...then the flux required by the core is maximum but here the avaliable flux in the core is zero and hence TRANSIENT OPERATION is required Here when the Transient operation takes place then the flux doubles gradually and this is known as Doubling Effect of Transformer.This Doubling Effect causes magnetic in rush current and Damage in the insulation. Using Secondary Harmonic Restraining Coil can reduce all these Drawbacks.

TRANSMISSION LINES

Transmission lines The Transmission lines are basically Electrical Circuits having distributed constants such as Resistance,Inductance and Capacitance.These contants are uniformly distributed along the length of the line and there concentration at any particular point is not possible Basically these Transmission lines are Classified based on two cases, CASE 1: BASED ON LENGTH:- The Tranmission lines are classified into three types here 1.Short Transmission Lines:When the length of the Tranmission line is below 60 km then they are considered to be under STL 2.Medium Transmission Lines:When the length of the Transmission line is 80-160 km then they are said to be MTL. 3.Long Transmission  Lines: When the length of the Transmission line is above 160 km then they are said to be LTL. CASE 2: BASED ON OPERATING VOLTAGE:- Here the Transmission lines are classified into five types 1.Low Voltage:When the operating voltage is upto 1KV. 2.High Voltage:When the operat...
