Description / Abstract:
This guide provides a uniform method for calculating and
measuring torque pulsations that occur during starting of
synchronous motors. Synchronous motors, as discussed in this guide,
applies to all types of excited synchronous motors, including
laminated or solid, salient or nonsalient machines, as well as
nonexcited synchronous-reluctance motors.
Purpose
This guide
a) Defines electromagnetic torque pulsations that occur during
starting of synchronous motors.
b) Recommends an equivalent circuit that can be used to describe
analytically the behavior of a laminated, salient-pole synchronous
motor during starting.
c) Provides the definitions and information necessary to
properly determine the circuit parameters of the equivalent
circuit.
d) Supplies equations, derived from the circuit, that can be
used to calculate the magnitude of the torque pulsation that would
occur during starting.
e) Presents several alternative techniques for the on-line
measurement of torque pulsations during starting.
