This application note presents space vector control or field-oriented control (FOC) using polar coordinates. It is used for controlling 3-phase alternating current induction motors (ACIM). The ...

Alternating current circuits improve the versatility and usefulness of electric power systems. In the late 1800s, Nikola Tesla demonstrated phenomena with alternating current (AC) electricity that ...

It’s powered by a three-phase alternating current induction motor that weighs just over 115 pounds and spins up to 14,000 rpms at top speed. So there’s no need for a conventional transmission. All ...

The first type of motor built is still in widespread use In the late 1800s, several inventors built the first working motors, which used direct current (DC) power. After the invention of the induction ...

ONCE again, worrywarts in Washington are wringing their hands over possible shortages of so-called “critical materials” for America's high-tech industries. In particular, the Department of Energy ...
