Speed Control of Induction Motor

• From Stator Side

• Prepared by: Jhade Kartik


Introduction
• Speed control of an induction motor is vital for
performance optimization and energy savings.
• We focus on stator-side methods.
Synchronous Speed Formula
• Ns = (120 × f) / P
• Where Ns = Synchronous Speed
• f = Frequency in Hz
• P = Number of Poles
1. Voltage Control Method
• • Reduces stator voltage to lower speed
• • Used in small motors like fans
• • Torque ∝ (Voltage² / Slip)
• • Inefficient at low speeds
2. Frequency Control Method
• • Uses VFD (Variable Frequency Drive)
• • Controls frequency and voltage
• • Most efficient method
• • Smooth speed and torque control
VFD Working Principle
• • Keeps magnetic flux constant
• • Adjusts voltage with frequency
• • Wide speed control range
3. Pole Changing Method
• • Changes number of poles in stator winding
• • Common in dual-speed motors
• • Stepwise speed variation
• • Example: 4 to 8 poles (1500 to 750 RPM)
4. Slip Power Recovery
• • Applicable to wound rotor motors
• • Recovers slip power through converters
• • Energy efficient for large motors
Comparison Table
• Method | Control | Range | Efficiency | Use
• Voltage | Voltage | Narrow | Low | Fans
• VFD | V & f | Wide | High | Industry
• Poles | Poles | Stepwise | High | Pumps
Applications
• • HVAC systems
• • Industrial conveyors
• • Pumps and compressors
• • Electric traction systems
Conclusion
• • Stator-side control is essential for efficient
motor operation
• • VFD is the most flexible and efficient method
