A small 0.75 horsepower, 4-pole, 460 V, Class F AC motor (Figure 1) was chosen for the model rewind. This motor was selected as it is compact in size and has lightweight dimensions to allow easy ...

Since it is essential to design an aircraft engine nozzle to achieve IR signature suppression, an S-shaped nozzle (double serpentine nozzle) is applied so that the high temperature part of the engine ...

Over on his YouTube channel our hacker [Yuchi] is building an STM32 BLDC motor winding machine. This machine is for winding brushless motors because manual winding is highly labor intensive. The ...

Megohmmeters (meggers) are electrical meters used to check the resistance and condition of the motor windings and the condition of the refrigeration and oil environment around the motor windings. A ...

Electrical angle alignment of brushless dc (BLDC) motors is the process of determining how to apply electric current to the motor. In essence, it is determining where the magnets are with respect to ...

(Nanowerk News) Lappeenranta University of Technology (LUT) in Finland has constructed the world’s first prototype electrical motor using carbon nanotube yarn in the motor windings. The new technology ...

In the first installment of this series, "Calculating a practical hotspot safety margin", we discussed how two-parameter thermal models assume that the entire motor, including windings, exhibits one ...

The operation of an electric motor is typically simple and reliable, making it possible to overlook during day-to-day maintenance practices. Having a checklist makes it easy to know exactly what to ...

Combined with productivity and associated reliability costs, a motor circuit analysis program can justify itself immediately. In recent years methods for controlling energy costs have evolved from a ...
