Single Phase Power Solutions (SPPS), Cincinnati, has introduced a 100-horsepower single-phase electric motor. Belle Motors use Written-Pole technology to “minimize voltage sags and flicker on long ...

Electric fans commonly use low-cost AC motors built around capacitors, which now increasingly demand replacement due to high power consumption. However, while three-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motors ...

Where three-phase power is unavailable or impractical, it’s single-phase motors to the rescue. Though they lack the higher efficiencies of their three-phase siblings, single-phase motors — correctly ...

THE first edition of this work appeared in 1904. Since then remarkable advances have been made in electrical engineering. A foremost place in this progress must be given to electric motors, and more ...

Every day engineers design products that employ single-phase induction motors. Speed control of single-phase induction motors is desirable in most motor control applications since it not only provides ...

One of the hidden complications of upgrading grain drying and handling systems is providing enough electricity to power the new larger electric motors. Electric motors that are larger than 15 hp ...
