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 ...

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 ...

While software and other advanced technologies often capture the automation technology spotlight, the fact remains that not much happens in the manufacturing or processing industries without motors.

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 ...

Single-phase motors are common in many industries and can be found in blowers, pumps, fans, lathes, and numerous other types of equipment. Single-phase motor failures or malfunctions can often be ...
