How to Measure the Strength of a Magnet
If you know how to measure the strength of a magnet, you know the value of your investment. magnets come in many strengths, and you can use a gauss meter…
Choosing the Right Magnet for Your Electric Motor Application
Choosing the Right Magnet for Your Electric Motor Application has major implications on design, project costs, and overall performance. It’s important to make an informed decision in this step of…
Construction and working principle of switched reluctance motor (SRM)
What is switched reluctance motor? The switched reluctance motor (SRM) is an electric motor that runs by reluctance torque. Unlike common brushed DC motor types, power is delivered to windings in the stator (case) rather than the rotor. Switched Reluctance Motor…
Why does induction motor draws a high current at starting
The induction motor draws a high starting current as compared to the running condition. The starting current of the induction motor is about 5 or 6 times the motor full…
Importance of air gap for motor design
The air gap refers to an actual physical gap in an electric motor that separates the moving rotor and the stator core. air gap is a non-magnetic part of a magnetic circuit. It’s…
