Motor Handbook 5
Introduction
This “handbook of electric machines” gives a high-level orientation regarding the
different kind of motors / generators, incl. their
- Structures and functionalities
- Characteristics and controls
- Notable features and ratings
- Strengths and weaknesses
- Predominant applications
The operation principles and characteristics of the different types of electric
machines are explained using brief machine descriptions, diagrams, tables etc. In
contrast to other documentations on electric machines complex mathematical
descriptions are avoided wherever possible.
The handbook approaches the machine description from the perspective of a
machine user (e.g. developers of electrical drive systems). Qualitative statements
are avoided explicitly since the performance of an electric motor depends strongly
on the respective application purpose, electromagnetic design and control setups.
Hints to internal structures and architectural details have been limited as far as
they are not required for the general description of machines and their operations.
This handbook focuses mostly on the motoring operation of an electric machine.
However, all types of the machines in this handbook can also be operated as
generators.
The handbook follows a consistent structure. Each section uses the same
documentation template, which enables the reader to quickly access the electric-
machine related information one might be interested in. Control algorithms are
explained in combination with the machine type they apply to. Common basics for
electric machines, specific in background information are gathered in the chapter
“Lexicon”.
The following handbook has been developed in close collaboration with
Institute for Power Electronics and Electrical Drives (ISEA), RWTH Aachen
University/Germany.
The content of this handbook is based on data originating from
- Lecture notes from ISEA
- Technical books of electric machines
- Freely accessible internet resources
For quick orientation Table 1 gives a brief comparison between the different
machine types. The statements refer to a typical design from each type. The
