Various electric motors, compared to 9 V battery.

Electronic symbol for an electric motor

An electric motor is an electric machine that converts electrical energy into mechanicalenergy.

In normal motoring mode, most electric motors operate through the interaction between an electric motor's magnetic field and winding currents to generate force within the motor. In certain applications, such as in the transportation industry with traction motors, electric motors can operate in both motoring and generating or braking modes to also produce electrical energy from mechanical energy.

Found in applications as diverse as industrial fans, blowers and pumps, machinetools, household appliances, power tools, and disk drives, electric motors can

be powered by direct current (DC) sources, such as from batteries, motor vehicles or rectifiers, or by alternating current (AC) sources, such as from the power grid, inverters or generators. Small motors may be found in electric watches. General-purpose motors with highly standardized dimensions and characteristics provide convenient mechanical power for industrial use. The largest of electric motors are used for ship propulsion, pipeline compression and pumped-storageapplications with ratings reaching 100 megawatts. Electric motors may be classified by electric power source type, internal construction, application, type of motion output, and so on.

Devices such as magnetic solenoids and loudspeakers that convert electricity into motion but do not generate usable mechanical power are respectively referred to as actuators and transducers. Electric motors are used to produce linear force or torque (rotary).

History[edit]

Main article: History of the electric motor

Early motors[edit]

Faraday's electromagnetic experiment, 1821[1]

Perhaps the first electric motors were simple electrostatic devices created by the Scottish monkAndrew Gordon in the 1740s.[2] The theoretical principle behindproduction of mechanical force by the interactions of an electric current and amagnetic field, Ampère's force law, was discovered later by André-Marie Ampère in 1820. The conversion of electrical energy into mechanical energy by electromagnetic means was demonstrated by the British scientist Michael Faraday in 1821. A free-hanging wire was dipped into a pool of mercury, on which a permanent magnet (PM) was placed. When a current was passed through thewire, the wire rotated around the magnet, showing that the current gave rise toa close circular magnetic field around the wire.[3] This motor is often demonstrated in physics experiments, brine substituting for toxic mercury.

ThoughBarlow's wheel was an early refinement to this Faraday demonstration, these and similarhomopolar motors were to remain unsuited to practical application until late in the century.

Jedlik's "electromagnetic self-rotor", 1827 (Museum of Applied Arts, Budapest). The historic motor still works perfectly today.[4]

In 1827, Hungarian physicist Ányos Jedlik started experimenting with electromagnetic coils. After Jedlik solved the technical problems of the continuous rotation with the invention of commutator, he called his early devices as "electromagnetic self-rotors". Although they were used only for instructional purposes, in 1828 Jedlik demonstrated the first device to containthe three main components of practical DC motors: the stator, rotor and commutator. The device employed no permanent magnets, as the magnetic fields ofboth the stationary and revolving components were produced solely by the currents flowing through their windings.[5][6][7][8][9][10][11]

Success with DC motors[edit]The first commutator DC electric motor capable of turning machinery was invented by the British scientist William Sturgeon in 1832.[12] Following Sturgeon's work, a commutator-type direct-current electric motor made with the intention of commercial use was built by the American inventor Thomas Davenport, which he patented in 1837. The motors ran at up to 600 revolutions per minute, and powered machine tools and a printing press.[13] Due to the high cost of primary battery power, the motors were commercially unsuccessful and Davenport went bankrupt. Several inventors followed Sturgeon in the developmentof DC motors but all encountered the same battery power cost issues. No electricity distribution had been developed at the time. Like Sturgeon's motor,there was no practical commercial market for these motors.[14]

In 1855, Jedlik built a device using similar principles to those used in his electromagnetic self-rotors that was capable of useful work.[5][11]He built a model electric vehicle that same year.[15]

The first commercially successful DC motors followed the invention by Zénobe Gramme who had in 1871 developed the anchor ring dynamo which solved the double-T armature pulsating DC problem. In 1873, Gramme found that this dynamo could be used as a motor, which he demonstrated to great effect at exhibitions in Vienna and Philadelphia by connecting two such DC motors at a distance of upto 2 km away from each other, one as a generator.[16] (See also 1873 : l'expérience décisive [Decisive Workaround] .)

In 1886, Frank Julian Sprague invented the first practical DC motor, a non-sparking motor that maintained relatively constant speed under variable loads. Other Sprague electric inventions about this time greatly improved grid electric distribution (prior work done while employed by Thomas Edison), allowed power from electric motors to be returned to the electric grid, provided for electric distribution to trolleys via overhead wires and the trolley pole, and provided controls systems for electric operations. This allowed Sprague to use electric motors to invent the first electric trolley system in 1887–88 in Richmond VA, the electric elevator and control system in 1892, and the electric subway with independently powered centrally controlled cars, which were first installed in 1892 in Chicago by the South Side Elevated Railway where it became popularly known as the "L". Sprague's motor and relatedinventions led to an explosion of interest and use in electric motors for industry, while almost simultaneously another great inventor was developing itsprimary competitor, which would become much more widespread. The development ofelectric motors of acceptable efficiency was delayed for several decades by failure to recognize the extreme importance of a relatively small air gap between rotor and stator. Efficient designs have a comparatively small air gap.[17] [a] The St. Louis motor, long used in classrooms to illustrate motor principles, is extremely inefficient for the same reason, as well as appearing nothing like a modern motor.[18]

Application of electric motors revolutionized industry. Industrial processes were no longer limited by power transmission using line shafts, belts, compressed air or hydraulic pressure. Instead every machine could be equipped with its own electric motor, providing easy control at the point of use, and improving power transmission efficiency. Electric motors applied in agricultureeliminated human and animal muscle power from such tasks as handling grain or pumping water. Household uses of electric motors reduced heavy labor in the home and made higher standards of convenience, comfort and safety possible. Today, electric motors stand for more than half of the electric energy consumption in the US.[19]

Emergence of AC motors[edit]In 1824, the French physicist François Arago formulated the existence of rotating magnetic fields, termed Arago's rotations, which, by manually turning switches on and off, Walter Baily demonstrated in 1879 as in effect thefirst primitive induction motor.[20][21] [22][23] In the 1880s, many inventors were trying to develop workable AC motors[24] because AC's advantages in long distance high voltage transmission were counterbalanced by the inability to operate motors on AC. Practical rotating AC induction motors were independentlyinvented by Galileo Ferraris and Nikola Tesla, a working motor model having been demonstrated by the former in 1885 and by the latter in 1887. In 1888, the Royal Academy of Science of Turin published Ferraris's research detailing the foundations of motor operation while however concluding that "the apparatus based on that principle could not be of any commercial importance as motor."[23]

[25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36] In 1888, Tesla presented his paper A New System for

Alternating Current Motors and Transformers to the AIEE that described three patented two-phase four-stator-pole motor types: one with a four-pole rotor forming a non-self-starting reluctance motor, another with a wound rotor forming a self-starting induction motor, and the third a true synchronous motorwith separatelyexcited DC supply to rotor winding. One of the patents Tesla filed in 1887, however, also described a shorted-winding-rotor induction motor. George Westinghouse promptly bought Tesla's patents, employed Tesla to develop them, and assigned C. F. Scottto help Tesla, Tesla leaving for other pursuits in 1889.[23][30][33][34][35][36][37][37][38][38][39][40] [41][42][43][44] The constant speed AC induction motor was found not to be suitable for street cars[24] but Westinghouse engineers successfully adapted it to power a mining operation in Telluride, Colorado in 1891.[45][46][47] Steadfast in his promotion of three-phase development, Mikhail Dolivo-Dobrovolskyinvented the three-phase cage-rotor induction motor in 1889 and the three-limb transformer in 1890. This type of motor is now used for the vast majority of commercial applications.[48]

[49] However, he claimed that Tesla's motor was not practical because of two-phase pulsations, which prompted him to persist in his three-phase work.[50] Although Westinghouse achieved its first practical induction motor in 1892 and developed a line of polyphase 60 hertz induction motors in 1893, these early Westinghouse motors were two-phase motorswith wound rotors until B. G. Lamme developed a rotating bar winding rotor.[37] The General Electric Company began developing three-phase induction motors in 1891.[37] By 1896, General Electric and Westinghouse signed a cross-licensing agreement for the bar-winding-rotor design, later called the squirrel-cage rotor.[37] Induction

motor improvements flowing from these inventions and innovations were such thata 100 horsepower (HP) induction motor currently has the same mounting dimensions as a 7.5 HP motor in 1897.[37]

Motor construction[edit]

Electric motor rotor (left) and stator (right)

Rotor[edit]Main article: Rotor (electric)

In an electric motor the moving part is the rotor which turns the shaft to deliver the mechanical power. The rotor usually has conductors laid into it which carry currents that interact with the magnetic field of the stator to generate the forces that turn the shaft. However, some rotors carry permanent magnets, and the stator holds the conductors.

Stator[edit]Main article: Stator

The stationary part is the stator, usually has either windings or permanent magnets.

Air gap[edit]In between the rotor and stator is the air gap. The air gap has important effects, and is generally as small as possible, as a large gap has a strong negative effect on the performance of an electric motor.

Windings[edit]Main article: Windings

Windings are wires that are laid in coils, usually wrapped around a laminated soft iron magnetic core so as to form magnetic poles when energised with current.

Electric machines come in two basic magnet field pole configurations: salient-

pole machine and nonsalient-pole machine. In the salient-pole machine the pole's magnetic field is produced by a winding wound around the pole below the pole face. In the nonsalient-pole, or distributed field, or round-rotor, machine, the winding is distributed in pole face slots.[51] A shaded-pole motor has a windingaround part of the pole that delays the phase of the magnetic field for that pole.

Some motors have conductors which consist of thicker metal, such as bars or sheets of metal, usually copper, although sometimesaluminum is used. These are usually powered by electromagnetic induction.

Commutator[edit]Main article: Commutator (electric)

Toy's small DC motor with commutator.

A commutator is a mechanism used to switch the input of certain AC and DC machines consisting of slip ring segments insulated from each other and from the electric motor's shaft. The motor's armature current is supplied through the stationary brushes in contact with the revolving commutator, which causes required current reversal and applies power to the machine in an optimal manneras the rotor rotates from pole to pole.[52][53] In absence of such current reversal, the motor would brake to a stop. In light of significant advances in the past few decades due to improved technologies in electronic controller, sensorless control, induction motor, and permanent magnet motor fields, electromechanically commutated motors are increasingly being displaced by externally commutated induction and permanent magnet motors.

Motor supply and control[edit]Motor supply[edit]A DC motor is usually supplied through slip ring commutator as described above. AC motors' commutation can be either slip ring commutator or externally

commutated type, can be fixed-speed or variable-speed control type, and can be synchronous or asynchronoustype. Universal motors can run on either AC or DC.

Motor control[edit]Fixed-speed controlled AC motors are provided with direct-on-line or soft-startstarters.

Variable speed controlled AC motors are provided with a range of different power inverter, variable-frequency drive or electronic commutator technologies.

The term electronic commutator is usually associated with self-commutated brushless DC motor and switched reluctance motorapplications.

Major categories[edit]

Electric motors operate on three different physical principles: magnetic, electrostatic and piezoelectric. By far the most common is magnetic.

In magnetic motors, magnetic fields are formed in both the rotor and the stator. The product between these two fields gives rise to a force, and thus a torque on the motor shaft. One, or both, of these fields must be made to changewith the rotation of the motor. This is done by switching the poles on and off at the right time, or varying the strength of the pole.

The main types are DC motors and AC motors, the former increasingly being displaced by the latter.

AC electric motors are either asynchronous and synchronous.

Once started, a synchronous motor requires synchronism with the moving magneticfield's synchronous speed for all normal torque conditions.

In synchronous machines, the magnetic field must be provided by means other than induction such as from separately excited windings or permanent magnets.

It is usual to distinguish motors' rated output power about the unity horsepower threshold so that integral horsepower refers to motor(s) equal to orabove, and fractional horsepower (FHP) refers to motor(s) below, the threshold.

Self-commutated motor[edit]Brushed DC motor[edit]Main article: DC motor

All self-commutated DC motors are by definition run on DC electric power. Most DC motors are small PM types. They contain a brushedinternal mechanical commutation to reverse motor windings' current in synchronism with rotation.[62]

Electrically excited DC motor[edit]Main article: Brushed DC electric motor

Workings of a brushed electric motor with a two-pole rotor and PM stator. ("N" and "S" designate polarities on the inside faces of the magnets; the outside faces have oppositepolarities.)

A commutated DC motor has a set of rotating windings wound on an armature mounted on a rotating shaft. The shaft also carries the commutator,a long-lasting rotary electrical switch that periodically reverses the flow of current in the rotor windings as the shaft rotates. Thus, every brushed DC motor has AC flowing through its rotating windings. Current flows through one or more pairs of brushes that bear on the commutator; the brushes connect an external source of electric power to the rotating armature.

The rotating armature consists of one or more coils of wire wound around a laminated,magnetically "soft" ferromagnetic core. Current from the brushes flows through the commutator and one winding of the armature, making it a temporary magnet (an electromagnet). The magnets field produced by the armatureinteracts with a stationary magnetic field produced by either PMs or another winding a field coil, as part of the motor frame. The force between the two magnetic fields tends to rotate the motor shaft. The commutator switches power to the coils as the rotor turns, keeping the magnetic poles of the rotor from ever fully aligning with the magnetic poles of the stator field, so that the rotor never stops (like a compass needle does), but rather keeps rotating as long as power is applied.

Many of the limitations of the classic commutator DC motor are due to the need for brushes to press against the commutator. This creates friction. Sparks are created by the brushes making and breaking circuits through the rotor coils as the brushes cross the insulating gaps between commutator sections. Depending on

the commutator design, this may include the brushes shorting together adjacent sections – and hence coil ends – momentarily while crossing the gaps. Furthermore, theinductance of the rotor coils causes the voltage across each torise when its circuit is opened, increasing the sparking of the brushes. This sparking limits the maximum speed of the machine, as too-rapid sparking will overheat, erode, or even melt the commutator. The current density per unit areaof the brushes, in combination with their resistivity, limits the output of themotor. The making and breaking of electric contact also generates electrical noise; sparking generates RFI. Brushes eventually wear out and require replacement, and the commutator itself is subject to wear and maintenance (on larger motors) or replacement (on small motors). The commutator assembly on a large motor is a costly element, requiring precision assembly of many parts. Onsmall motors, the commutator is usually permanently integrated into the rotor, so replacing it usually requires replacing the whole rotor.

While most commutators are cylindrical, some are flat discs consisting of several segments (typically, at least three) mounted on an insulator.

Large brushes are desired for a larger brush contact area to maximize motor output, but small brushes are desired for low mass to maximize the speed at which the motor can run without the brushes excessively bouncing and sparking. (Small brushes are also desirable for lower cost.) Stiffer brush springs can also be used to make brushes of a given mass work at a higher speed, but at thecost of greater friction losses (lower efficiency) and accelerated brush and commutator wear. Therefore, DC motor brush design entails a trade-off between output power, speed, and efficiency/wear.

DC machines are defined as follows:[63]

Armature circuit - A winding where the load current is carried, such that can be either stationary or rotating part of motor or generator.

Field circuit - A set of windings that produces a magnetic field so that the electromagnetic inductioncan take place in electric machines.

Commutation: A mechanical technique in which rectification can be achieved, or from which DC can be derived, in DC machines.

There are five types of brushed DC motor:

DC shunt-wound motor DC series-wound motor DC compound motor (two configurations):

Cumulative compound Differentially compounded

PM DC motor (not shown) Separately excited (not shown).

Permanent magnet DC motor[edit]Main article: Permanent-magnet electric motor

A PM motor does not have a field winding on the stator frame, instead relying on PMs to provide the magnetic field against which the rotor field interacts toproduce torque. Compensating windings in series with the armature may be used on large motors to improve commutation under load. Because this field is fixed,it cannot be adjusted for speed control. PM fields (stators) are convenient in miniature motors to eliminate the power consumption of the field winding. Most larger DC motors are of the "dynamo" type, which have stator windings. Historically, PMs could not be made to retain high flux if they were disassembled; field windings were more practical to obtain the needed amount offlux. However, large PMs are costly, as well as dangerous and difficult to assemble; this favors wound fields for large machines.

To minimize overall weight and size, miniature PM motors may use high energy magnets made with neodymium or other strategic elements; most such are neodymium-iron-boron alloy. With their higher flux density, electric machines with high-energy PMs are at least competitive with all optimally designed singly fed synchronous and induction electric machines. Miniature motors resemble the structure in the illustration, except that they have at least three rotor poles (to ensure starting, regardless of rotor position) and

their outer housing is a steel tube that magnetically links the exteriors of the curved field magnets.

Electronic commutator (EC) motor[edit]Brushless DC motor[edit]Main article: Brushless DC electric motor

Some of the problems of the brushed DC motor are eliminated in the BLDC design.In this motor, the mechanical "rotating switch" or commutator is replaced by anexternal electronic switch synchronised to the rotor's position. BLDC motors are typically 85–90% efficient or more. Efficiency for a BLDC motor of up to 96.5% have been reported,[64] whereas DC motors with brushgear are typically 75–80% efficient.

The BLDC motor's characteristic trapezoidal back-emf waveform is derived partlyfrom stator the stator windings being evenly distributed, partly from the placement of the rotor's PMs. Also known as electronically commutated DC or inside out DC motors, the stator windings of trapezoidal BLDC motors can be with single-phase, two-phase or three-phase and use Hall effect sensors mountedon their windings for rotor position sensing and crude, low cost closed-loop control of the electronic commutator.

BLDC motors are commonly used where precise speed control is necessary, as in computer disk drives or in video cassette recorders, the spindles within CD, CD-ROM (etc.) drives, and mechanisms within office products such as fans, laserprinters and photocopiers. They have several advantages over conventional motors:

Compared to AC fans using shaded-pole motors, they are very efficient, running much cooler than the equivalent AC motors. This cool operation leads to much-improved life of the fan's bearings.

Without a commutator to wear out, the life of a BLDCmotor can be significantly longer compared to a DC motor using brushes and a commutator. Commutation also tends to cause a great deal of electrical and RF noise; without a commutator or brushes, a BLDC motor may be used in electrically sensitive devices like audio equipment or computers.

The same Hall effect sensors that provide the commutation can also provide a

convenient tachometer signal for closed-loop control(servo-controlled) applications. In fans, the tachometer signal can be used to derive a "fan OK" signal as well as provide running speed feedback.

The motor can be easily synchronized to an internal or external clock, leading to precise speed control.

BLDC motors have no chance of sparking, unlike brushed motors, making them better suited to environments with volatile chemicals and fuels. Also, sparking generates ozone which can accumulate in poorly ventilated buildings risking harm to occupants' health.

BLDC motors are usually used in small equipment suchas computers and are generally used in fans to get rid of unwanted heat.

They are also acoustically very quiet motors which is an advantage if being used in equipment that is affected by vibrations.

Modern BLDC motors range in power from a fraction of a watt to many kilowatts. Larger BLDC motors up to about 100 kW rating are used in electric vehicles. They also find significant use in high-performance electric model aircraft.

Switched reluctance motor[edit]

6/4 pole switched reluctance motor

Main article: Switched reluctance motor

The SRM has no brushes or PMs, and the rotor has no electric currents. Instead,torque comes from a slight misalignment of poles on the rotor with poles on the

stator. The rotor aligns itself with the magnetic field of the stator, while the stator field stator windings are sequentially energized to rotate the stator field.

The magnetic flux created by the field windings follows the path of least magnetic reluctance, meaning the flux will flow through poles of the rotor thatare closest to the energized poles of the stator, thereby magnetizing those poles of the rotor and creating torque. As the rotor turns, different windings will be energized, keeping the rotor turning.

SRMs are now being used in some appliances.[65]

Universal AC-DC motor[edit]Main article: Universal motor

Modern low-cost universal motor, from a vacuum cleaner. Field windings are dark copper-colored, toward the back, on both sides. The rotor's laminated core is gray metallic, with dark slots for winding the coils. The commutator (partly hidden) has become dark from use; it is toward the front. The large brown molded-plastic piece in the foregroundsupports the brush guides and brushes (both sides), as well as the front motor bearing.

A commutated electrically excited series or parallel wound motor is referred toas a universal motor because it can be designed to operate on both AC and DC power. A universal motor can operate well on AC because the current in both thefield and the armature coils (and hence the resultant magnetic fields) will alternate (reverse polarity) in synchronism, and hence the resulting mechanicalforce will occur in a constant direction of rotation.

Operating at normal power line frequencies, universal motors are often found ina range less than 1000 watts. Universal motors also formed the basis of the traditional railway traction motor in electric railways. In this application, the use of AC to power a motor originally designed to run on DC would lead to efficiency losses due to eddy current heating of their magnetic components,

particularly the motor field pole-pieces that, for DC, would have used solid (un-laminated) iron and they are now rarely used.

An advantage of the universal motor is that AC supplies may be used on motors which have some characteristics more common in DC motors, specifically high starting torque and very compact design if high running speeds are used. The negative aspect is the maintenance and short life problems caused by the commutator. Such motors are used in devices such as food mixers and power toolswhich are used only intermittently, and often have high starting-torque demands. Multiple taps on the field coil provide (imprecise) stepped speed control. Household blenders that advertise many speeds frequently combine a field coil with several taps and a diode that can be inserted in series with the motor (causing the motor to run on half-wave rectified AC). Universal motors also lend themselves to electronic speed control and, as such, are an ideal choice for devices like domestic washing machines. The motor can be used to agitate the drum (both forwards and in reverse) by switching the field winding with respect to the armature.

Whereas SCIMs cannot turn a shaft faster than allowed by the power line frequency, universal motors can run at much higher speeds. This makes them useful for appliances such as blenders, vacuum cleaners, and hair dryers where high speed and light weight are desirable. They are also commonly used in portable power tools, such as drills, sanders, circular and jig saws, where themotor's characteristics work well. Many vacuum cleaner and weed trimmer motors exceed 10,000 rpm, while many similar miniature grinders exceed 30,000 rpm.

Externally commutated AC machine[edit]

Main article: AC motor

The design of AC induction and synchronous motors is optimized for operation onsingle-phase or polyphase sinusoidal or quasi-sinusoidal waveform power such assupplied for fixed-speed application from the AC power grid or for variable-speed application from VFD controllers. An AC motor has two parts: a stationarystator having coils supplied with AC to produce a rotating magnetic field, and a rotor attached to the output shaft that is given a torque by the rotating field.

Induction motor[edit]Main article: Induction motor

Cage and wound rotor induction motor[edit]

An induction motor is an asynchronous AC motor where power is transferred to the rotor by electromagnetic induction, much like transformer action. An induction motor resembles a rotating transformer, because the stator (stationary part) is essentially the primary side of the transformer and the rotor (rotating part) is the secondary side. Polyphase induction motors are widely used in industry.

Induction motors may be further divided into SCIMs and WRIMs. SCIMs have a heavy winding made up of solid bars, usually aluminum or copper, joined by rings at the ends of the rotor. When one considers only the bars and rings as awhole, they are much like an animal's rotating exercise cage, hence the name.

Currents induced into this winding provide the rotor magnetic field. The shape of the rotor bars determines the speed-torque characteristics. At low speeds, the current induced in the squirrel cage is nearly at line frequency and tends to be in the outer parts of the rotor cage. As the motor accelerates, the slip frequency becomes lower, and more current is in the interior of the winding. Byshaping the bars to change the resistance of the winding portions in the interior and outer parts of the cage, effectively a variable resistance is inserted in the rotor circuit. However, the majority of such motors have uniform bars.

In a WRIM, the rotor winding is made of many turns of insulated wire and is connected to slip rings on the motor shaft. An external resistor or other control devices can be connected in the rotor circuit. Resistors allow control of the motor speed, although significant power is dissipated in the external resistance. A converter can be fed from the rotor circuit and return the slip-frequency power that would otherwise be wasted back into the power system through an inverter or separate motor-generator.

The WRIM is used primarily to start a high inertia load or a load that requiresa very high starting torque across the full speed range. By correctly selectingthe resistors used in the secondary resistance or slip ring starter, the motor is able to produce maximum torque at a relatively low supply current from zero speed to full speed. This type of motor also offers controllable speed.

Motor speed can be changed because the torque curve of the motor is effectivelymodified by the amount of resistance connected to the rotor circuit. Increasingthe value of resistance will move the speed of maximum torque down. If the resistance connected to the rotor is increased beyond the point where the maximum torque occurs at zero speed, the torque will be further reduced.

When used with a load that has a torque curve that increases with speed, the motor will operate at the speed where the torque developed by the motor is equal to the load torque. Reducing the load will cause the motor to speed up, and increasing the load will cause the motor to slow down until the load and motor torque are equal. Operated in this manner, the slip losses are dissipatedin the secondary resistors and can be very significant. The speed regulation and net efficiency is also very poor.

Torque motor[edit]Main article: Torque motor

A torque motor is a specialized form of electric motor which can operate indefinitely while stalled, that is, with the rotor blocked from turning, without incurring damage. In this mode of operation, the motor will apply a steady torque to the load (hence the name).

A common application of a torque motor would be the supply- and take-up reel motors in a tape drive. In this application, driven from a low voltage, the characteristics of these motors allow a relatively constant light tension to beapplied to the tape whether or not the capstan is feeding tape past the tape heads. Driven from a higher voltage, (and so delivering a higher torque), the torque motors can also achieve fast-forward and rewind operation without requiring any additional mechanics such as gears or clutches. In the computer gaming world, torque motors are used in force feedback steering wheels.

Another common application is the control of the throttle of an internal combustion engine in conjunction with an electronic governor. In this usage, the motor works against a return spring to move the throttle in accordance withthe output of the governor. The latter monitors engine speed by counting electrical pulses from the ignition system or from a magnetic pickup and, depending on the speed, makes small adjustments to the amount of current applied to the motor. If the engine starts to slow down relative to the desiredspeed, the current will be increased, the motor will develop more torque, pulling against the return spring and opening the throttle. Should the engine run too fast, the governor will reduce the current being applied to the motor, causing the return spring to pull back and close the throttle.

Synchronous motor[edit]Main article: Synchronous motor

A synchronous electric motor is an AC motor distinguished by a rotor spinning with coils passing magnets at the same rate as the AC and resulting magnetic

field which drives it. Another way of saying this is that it has zero slip under usual operating conditions. Contrast this with an induction motor, which must slip to produce torque. One type of synchronous motor is like an inductionmotor except the rotor is excited by a DC field. Slip rings and brushes are used to conduct current to the rotor. The rotor poles connect to each other andmove at the same speed hence the name synchronous motor. Another type, for low load torque, has flats ground onto a conventional squirrel-cage rotor to creatediscrete poles. Yet another, such as made by Hammond for its pre-World War II clocks, and in the older Hammond organs, has no rotor windings and discrete poles. It is not self-starting. The clock requires manual starting by a small knob on the back, while the older Hammond organs had an auxiliary starting motor connected by a spring-loaded manually operated switch.

Finally, hysteresis synchronous motors typically are (essentially) two-phase motors with a phase-shifting capacitor for one phase. They start like inductionmotors, but when slip rate decreases sufficiently, the rotor (a smooth cylinder) becomes temporarily magnetized. Its distributed poles make it act like a PMSM. The rotor material, like that of a common nail, will stay magnetized, but can also be demagnetized with little difficulty. Once running, the rotor poles stay in place; they do not drift.

Low-power synchronous timing motors (such as those for traditional electric clocks) may have multi-pole PM external cup rotors, and use shading coils to provide starting torque. Telechron clock motors have shaded poles for starting torque, and a two-spoke ring rotor that performs like a discrete two-pole rotor.

Doubly fed electric machine[edit]Main article: Doubly fed electric machine

Doubly fed electric motors have two independent multiphase winding sets, which contribute active (i.e., working) power to the energy conversion process, with at least one of the winding sets electronically controlled for variable speed operation. Two independent multiphase winding sets (i.e., dual armature) are the maximum provided in a single package without topology duplication. Doubly fed electric motors are machines with an effective constant torque speed range that is twice synchronous speed for a given frequency of excitation. This is twice the constant torque speed range as singly fed electric machines, which have only one active winding set.

A doubly fed motor allows for a smaller electronic converter but the cost of the rotor winding and slip rings may offset the saving in the power electronicscomponents. Difficulties with controlling speed near synchronous speed limit applications.[66]

Special magnetic motors[edit]Rotary[edit]Hydraulic cylinder displacement[edit]Electric motors are replacing hydraulic cylinders in airplanes and military equipment.[67][68]

Ironless or coreless rotor motor[edit]

A Miniature Coreless Motor

Nothing in the principle of any of the motors described above requires that theiron (steel) portions of the rotor actually rotate. If the soft magnetic material of the rotor is made in the form of a cylinder, then (except for the effect of hysteresis) torque is exerted only on the windings of the electromagnets. Taking advantage of this fact is the coreless or ironless DC motor, a specialized form of a PM DC motor.[62] Optimized for rapid acceleration, these motors have a rotor that is constructed without any iron core. The rotor can take the form of a winding-filled cylinder, or a self-supporting structure comprising only the magnet wire and the bonding material. The rotor can fit inside the stator magnets; a magnetically soft stationary cylinder inside the rotor provides a return path for the stator magnetic flux. A second arrangementhas the rotor winding basket surrounding the stator magnets. In that design, the rotor fits inside a magnetically soft cylinder that can serve as the housing for the motor, and likewise provides a return path for the flux.

Because the rotor is much lighter in weight (mass) than a conventional rotor formed from copper windings on steel laminations, the rotor can accelerate much

more rapidly, often achieving a mechanical time constant under one ms. This is especially true if the windings use aluminum rather than the heavier copper. But because there is no metal mass in the rotor to act as a heat sink, even small coreless motors must often be cooled by forced air. Overheating might be an issue for coreless DC motor designs.

Among these types are the disc-rotor types, described in more detail in the next section.

Vibrator motors for cellular phones are sometimes tiny cylindrical PM field types, but there are also disc-shaped types which have a thin multipolar disc field magnet, and an intentionally unbalanced molded-plastic rotor structure with two bonded coreless coils. Metal brushes and a flat commutator switch power to the rotor coils.

Related limited-travel actuators have no core and a bonded coil placed between the poles of high-flux thin PMs. These are the fast head positioners for rigid-disk ("hard disk") drives. Although the contemporary design differs considerably from that of loudspeakers, it is still loosely (and incorrectly) referred to as a "voice coil" structure, because some earlier rigid-disk-drive heads moved in straight lines, and had a drive structure much like that of a loudspeaker.

Pancake or axial rotor motor[edit]A rather unusual motor design, the printed armature or pancake motor has the windings shaped as a disc running between arrays of high-flux magnets. The magnets are arranged in a circle facing the rotor with space in between to forman axial air gap.[69] This design is commonly known as the pancake motor becauseof its extremely flat profile, although the technology has had many brand namessince its inception, such as ServoDisc.

The printed armature (originally formed on a printed circuit board) in a printed armature motor is made from punched copper sheets that are laminated together using advanced composites to form a thin rigid disc. The printed armature has a unique construction in the brushed motor world in that it does not have a separate ring commutator. The brushes run directly on the armature surface making the whole design very compact.

An alternative manufacturing method is to use wound copper wire laid flat with a central conventional commutator, in a flower and petal shape. The windings are typically stabilized by being impregnated with electrical epoxy potting systems. These are filled epoxies that have moderate mixed viscosity and a long

gel time. They are highlighted by low shrinkage and low exotherm, and are typically UL 1446 recognized as a potting compound insulated with 180°C, Class H rating.

The unique advantage of ironless DC motors is that there is no cogging (torque variations caused by changing attraction between the iron and the magnets). Parasitic eddy currents cannot form in the rotor as it is totally ironless, although iron rotors are laminated. This can greatly improve efficiency, but variable-speed controllers must use a higher switching rate (>40 kHz) or DC because of the decreasedelectromagnetic induction.

These motors were originally invented to drive the capstan(s) of magnetic tape drives in the burgeoning computer industry, where minimal time to reach operating speed and minimal stopping distance were critical. Pancake motors arestill widely used in high-performance servo-controlled systems, robotic systems, industrial automation and medical devices. Due to the variety of constructions now available, the technology is used in applications from high temperature military to low cost pump and basic servos.

Servo motor[edit]Main article: Servo motor

A servomotor is a motor, very often sold as a complete module, which is used within a position-control or speed-control feedback control system mainly control valves, such as motor operated control valves. Servomotors are used in applications such as machine tools, pen plotters, and other process systems. Motors intended for use in a servomechanism must have well-documented characteristics for speed, torque, and power. The speed vs. torque curve is quite important and is high ratio for a servo motor. Dynamic response characteristics such as winding inductance and rotor inertia are also important; these factors limit the overall performance of the servomechanism loop. Large, powerful, but slow-responding servo loops may use conventional AC or DC motors and drive systems with position or speed feedback on the motor. Asdynamic response requirements increase, more specialized motor designs such as coreless motors are used. AC motors' superior power density and acceleration characteristics compared to that of DC motors tends to favor PM synchronous, BLDC, induction, and SRM drive applications.[69]

A servo system differs from some stepper motor applications in that the position feedback is continuous while the motor is running; a stepper system relies on the motor not to "miss steps" for short term accuracy, although a

stepper system may include a "home" switch or other element to provide long-term stability of control.[70] For instance, when a typical dot matrix computer printer starts up, its controller makes the print head stepper motor drive to its left-hand limit, where a position sensor defines home position and stops stepping. As long as power is on, a bidirectional counter in the printer's microprocessor keeps track of print-head position.

Stepper motor[edit]Main article: Stepper motor

A stepper motor with a soft iron rotor, with active windings shown. In 'A' the active windings tend to hold the rotor in position. In 'B' a different set of windings are carrying a current, which generates torque and rotation.

Stepper motors are a type of motor frequently used when precise rotations are required. In a stepper motor an internal rotor containing PMs or a magneticallysoft rotor with salient poles is controlled by a set of external magnets that are switched electronically. A stepper motor may also be thought of as a cross between a DC electric motor and a rotary solenoid. As each coil is energized inturn, the rotor aligns itself with the magnetic field produced by the energizedfield winding. Unlike a synchronous motor, in its application, the stepper motor may not rotate continuously; instead, it "steps"—starts and then quickly stops again—from one position to the next as field windings are energized and de-energized in sequence. Depending on the sequence, the rotor may turn forwards or backwards, and it may change direction, stop, speed up or slow downarbitrarily at any time.

Simple stepper motor drivers entirely energize or entirely de-energize the field windings, leading the rotor to "cog" to a limited number of positions; more sophisticated drivers can proportionally control the power to the field windings, allowing the rotors to position between the cog points and thereby rotate extremely smoothly. This mode of operation is often calledmicrostepping.Computer controlled stepper motors are one of the most versatile forms of

positioning systems, particularly when part of a digital servo-controlled system.

Stepper motors can be rotated to a specific angle in discrete steps with ease, and hence stepper motors are used for read/write head positioning in computer floppy diskette drives. They were used for the same purpose in pre-gigabyte eracomputer disk drives, where the precision and speed they offered was adequate for the correct positioning of the read/write head of a hard disk drive. As drive density increased, the precision and speed limitations of stepper motors made them obsolete for hard drives—the precision limitation made them unusable,and the speed limitation made them uncompetitive—thus newer hard disk drives use voice coil-based head actuator systems. (The term "voice coil" in this connection is historic; it refers to the structure in a typical (cone type) loudspeaker. This structure was used for a while to position the heads. Modern drives have a pivoted coil mount; the coil swings back and forth, something like a blade of a rotating fan. Nevertheless, like a voice coil, modern actuator coil conductors (the magnet wire) move perpendicular to the magnetic lines of force.)

Stepper motors were and still are often used in computer printers, optical scanners, and digital photocopiers to move the optical scanning element, the print head carriage (of dot matrix and inkjet printers), and the platen or feedrollers. Likewise, many computer plotters (which since the early 1990s have been replaced with large-format inkjet and laser printers) used rotary stepper motors for pen and platen movement; the typical alternatives here were either linear stepper motors or servomotors with closed-loop analog control systems.

So-called quartz analog wristwatches contain the smallest commonplace stepping motors; they have one coil, draw very little power, and have a PM rotor. The same kind of motor drives battery-powered quartz clocks. Some of these watches,such as chronographs, contain more than one stepping motor.

Closely related in design to three-phase AC synchronous motors, stepper motors and SRMs are classified as variable reluctance motor type.[71] Stepper motors were and still are often used in computer printers, optical scanners, and computer numerical control (CNC)machines such as routers, plasma cutters and CNC lathes.

Linear motor[edit]Main article: Linear motor

A linear motor is essentially any electric motor that has been "unrolled" so that, instead of producing a torque (rotation), it produces a straight-line force along its length.

Linear motors are most commonly induction motors or stepper motors. Linear motors are commonly found in many roller-coasters where the rapid motion of themotorless railcar is controlled by the rail. They are also used in maglev trains, where the train "flies" over the ground. On a smaller scale, the 1978 era HP 7225A pen plotter used two linear stepper motors to move the pen along the X and Y axes.[72]

Electromagnetism[edit]

This section requires expansion. (March

2013)

Force and torque[edit]The fundamental purpose of the vast majority of the world's electric motors is to electromagnetically induce relative movement in an air gap between a stator and rotor to produce useful torque or linear force.

According Lorentz force law the force of a winding conductor can be given simply by:

or more generally, to handle conductors with any geometry:

The most general approaches to calculating the forces in motors use tensors.[81]

Power[edit]Where rpm is shaft speed and T is torque, a motor's mechanical power output Pem is given by,[82]

in British units with T expressed in foot-pounds,

 (horsepower), and,

in SI units with shaft speed expressed in radians per second, and T expressed in newton-meters,

 (watts).

For a linear motor, with force F and velocity v expressed in newtons and metersper second,

 (watts).

In an asynchronous or induction motor, the relationship between motor speed and air gap power is, neglecting skin effect, given by the following:

, where

Rr - rotor resistanceIr

2 - square of current induced in the rotors - motor slip; ie, difference between synchronous speed and slip speed, which provides the relative movement needed for current induction in the rotor.

Back emf[edit]Main article: Electromotive force

Since the armature windings of a direct-current motor are moving through a magnetic field, they havea voltage induced in them. This voltage tends to oppose the motor supply voltage and so is called "back electromotive force (emf)". The voltage is proportional to the running speed of the motor. The back emf of the motor, plus the

voltage drop across the winding internal resistance and brushes, must equal the voltage at the brushes. This provides the fundamental mechanism of speed regulation in a DC motor. If the mechanical load increases, the motor slows down; a lower back emf results, and more current is drawn from the supply. This increased current provides the additional torque to balance the new load.[83]

In AC machines, it is sometimes useful to consider a back emf source within the machine; this is of particular concern for close speed regulation of induction motors on VFDs, for example.[83]

Losses[edit]Motor losses are mainly due to resistive losses in windings, core losses and mechanical losses in bearings, and aerodynamic losses, particularly where cooling fans are present, also occur.

Losses also occur in commutation, mechanical commutators spark, and electronic commutators and also dissipate heat.

Efficiency[edit]To calculate a motor's efficiency, the mechanical output power is divided by the electrical input power:

,

where   is energy conversion efficiency,   is electrical input power, and   is mechanical output power:

where   is input voltage,   is input current,   is output torque, and   is output angular velocity. It is possible to derive analytically the point ofmaximum efficiency. It istypically at less than 1/2 the stall torque.[citation

needed]

Various regulatory authorities in many countries have introducedand implemented legislation to encourage the manufacture and use of higher efficiency electric motors. There isexisting and forthcoming legislation regarding thefuture mandatory use of premium-efficiency induction-type motors in defined equipment. For

more information, see: Premium

efficiency and Copper in energy

efficient motors.

Goodness factor[edit]Main article: Goodness factor

Professor Eric Laithwaite [84]  proposed a metric to determine the 'goodness' of an electricmotor:[85] 

Where:

 is the goodness factor (factors above 1 are

likely to be efficient) are the cross sections of the magnetic

and electric circuit are the lengths of the magnetic and

electric circuits is the permeability of the core is the angular frequency the motor is driven at

From this, heshowed that themost efficient motorsare likely to have relatively largemagneticpoles. However,the equationonly directlyrelates to non

PM motors.

When optimally designedwithin agiven core saturation constraint and for a given active current (i.e., torque current), voltage,pole-pair number, excitation frequency (i.e.,synchronous speed), and air-gap fluxdensity,all categories of electricmotors

or generators will exhibit virtually the same maximum continuous shafttorque (i.e., operating torque) within agiven air-gap area with winding slots and back-iron depth, which determines the physicalsize of electromagnetic core. Some applications require

bursts of torque beyond the maximum operating torque, such as short bursts of torque to accelerate an electricvehicle from standstill. Always limited by magnetic coresaturation or safe operating temperature riseand voltage,the capacityfor torque

bursts beyond the maximum operating torquediffers significantly between categories of electricmotors or generators.

Capacityfor bursts of torque should not be confusedwith field weakening capability. Field weakening allowsan electricmachine to

operate beyond the designedfrequency of excitation.

Electricmachineswithout a transformer circuit topology, such as that of WRSMsor PMSMs, cannot realize bursts of torque higher than themaximum designedtorque without saturating the magneticcore andrendering any

increasein current as useless.Furthermore, thePM assemblyof PMSMscan be irreparably damaged,if bursts of torque exceeding the maximum operating torquerating are attempted.

Electricmachineswith a transformer circuit topology, such as induction

machines, induction doublyfed electricmachines, and induction or synchronous wound-rotor doubly fed (WRDF) machines, exhibit very high bursts of torque because the emf-induced active current on either side of the transformer oppose each

other and thuscontribute nothing to the transformer coupled magneticcore flux density,which would otherwise lead to core saturation.

Electricmachinesthat rely on induction or asynchronous principles short-circuit one portof the transformer circuit and as a

result, the reactiveimpedance of thetransformer circuit becomes dominantas slip increases, whichlimits the magnitude of active (i.e., real) current.Still, bursts of torque that aretwo to three times higher than themaximum design torque are realizable.

The brushless wound-rotor synchonous doubly fed (BWRSDF) machine is the only electricmachine with a truly dual ported transformer circuit topology(i.e., both ports independently excited with no short-circuited port).[86] The dual ported transformer circuit

topologyis knownto be unstableand requiresa multiphase slip-ring-brush assemblyto propagate limited power tothe rotor winding set. If a precision means were available to instantaneously control torque angle and slipfor synchronous operation during

motoringor generating whilesimultaneously providing brushless power to the rotor winding set, theactive current of the BWRSDF machine would beindependent of the reactiveimpedance of thetransformer circuit and bursts of torque significantly higher than themaximum

operating torqueand far beyond the practical capability of any other type of electricmachine would berealizable. Torque bursts greater than eight times operating torquehave been calculated.

Continuous torquedensity[edit]The continuous

torque density of conventional electricmachinesis determined by the sizeof the air-gap area andthe back-iron depth, which are determined by the power rating of the armaturewinding set, thespeed ofthe machine,and the achievable air-gap fluxdensity before

core saturation. Despite the highcoercivity of neodymium or samarium-cobalt PMs, continuous torque density is virtually the same amongst electricmachineswith optimally designedarmaturewinding sets. Continuous torque density relates to method of

cooling and permissible period of operation beforedestruction by overheating of windingsor PM damage.

Continuous power density[edit]The continuous powerdensity is determined by the product of the continuous torque density and the constanttorque

speed range ofthe electricmachine.

An electrostatic motor isbased onthe attraction and repulsion of electriccharge. Usually,electrostatic motors are the dual of conventional coil-based motors. They

typically require a high voltage power supply, althoughvery small motors employ lower voltages. Conventional electricmotors instead employ magneticattraction and repulsion, and require high current at low voltages. In the1750s, the first electrostatic motors

were developed by BenjaminFranklinand Andrew Gordon. Today the electrostatic motor finds frequentuse in micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) where their drive voltagesare below 100 volts, and where moving, charged plates are far easier to

fabricate than coils and ironcores. Also, the molecular machinery which runs living cells isoften based onlinear and rotary electrostatic motors.[citation needed]

A piezoelectric motor orpiezo motor isa type of electricmotor based upon thechange in shapeof

a piezoelectric material when anelectric field isapplied.Piezoelectric motors make useof the conversepiezoelectric effect whereby the materialproducesacousticorultrasonic vibrations in orderto produce a linearor rotary motion. In one mechanism, the elongation in a single

plane isused to make a series stretches and positionholds, similar to the way a caterpillar moves.[citation needed]

An electrically powered spacecraft propulsion system uses electricmotor technology to propel spacecraft in outer space, most systems being based on

electrically poweringpropellant to high speed, with some systems being based on electrodynamic tethers principles of propulsion to the magnetosphere.[87]
