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.

INDEPENDENT SOURCES AND DEPENDENT SOURCES

Independent sources: There are two types of independent sources they are  Independent Voltage source Ideal voltage source::Load voltage is independent of Load current. Practical voltage source:Load voltage depends on Load current. 2. Independent Current source Ideal current source::Load current is independent of Load voltage. Practical current source:Load current depends on Load voltage.  Dependent sources: The voltage or current of Dependent sources depends on other circuit parameters.There are four types of Dependent sources they are Voltage Control Voltage Source(VCVS):This means that the Voltage Source is depending on other voltage parameter available in the same circuit. Voltage Control Current Source(VCCS):This means that the Current Source is depending on other voltage parameter available in the same circuit. Current Control Voltage Source(CCVS):This means that the Voltage Source is depending on other Current parameter available in the same...

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.
