DESIGN CRITERIA FOR DETERMINING THE SIZE OF TRACTION MOTORS AND INVERTER OF AN ASYNCHRONOUS MOTOR DRIVE

Author reviews the fundamental relationship between electrical and mechanical parameters by means of examples. Indicates the necessity of adjusting the slip frequency in relation to the temperature of the motor for optimum torque. Deals with the question of the selection of the modulating frequency in relation to the inverter output frequency. Shows how to use a computer as a design aid.
