ABSTRACT
The aim of this project is to limit the starting current and increase the starting torque. High Starting torque is a desired feature in some special industrial applications which use 3-Ph Slip Ring Induction motor. There are different methods for starting of the Slip Ring induction Motor. But we have used the Rotor Resistance Control method for Starting the Induction Motor. We are using a Programmable Logic Controller which can be programmed as per our requirement. We have designed a control panel and programmed the PLC according to our requirements. The motor will Start with high rotor resistance and as time passes the rotor resistance is been shorted and the motor will run at rated speed. The resistance is been cut from the rotor in two parts in two different time intervals. So this process of time management and controlling the relays in been done by the PLC. Depending upon the outputs of PLC the relays gets shorted and the resistance is been cut from the rotor.

CHAPTER-1 INTRODUCTION
What happens if the motor is started as a normal induction motor?
If the slip ring induction motor is started with all the slip rings or the rotor terminals shorted, like a normal induction motor, then it suffers extremely high locked rotor current, ranging up to 1400%, accompanied with very low locked rotor torque as low as 60%. So, it is not advised to start a slip ring induction motor with its rotor terminals shorted. So, there are different methods to control the starting current and speed of 3-ph Slip Ring Induction Motor. 1) Frequency Control Method 2) V/f Control Method 3) Rotor Emf Injection Method 4) Rotor Resistance Control Method. In the 1st and 2nd methods stator side power electronic hardware is required. In case of rotor Emf injection method, Generating AC voltage at slip frequency is a difficult task. By using Rotor resistance control, Stator side hardware is not required. The disadvantages of the first 3 methods can be over come in the rotor resistance control method. At the time of normal
running of induction motor, for a constant torque load, Slip is proportional to rotor resistance. Therefore we can also control the speed of the Induction motor for a given load. This can be achieved using the ABB AC-31 Programmable logic controller. PLC is designed for multiple inputs and output arrangements, extended temperature ranges, immunity to electrical noise, and resistance to vibration and impact. PLC programs are typically written in a special application on a personal computer, and then downloaded by a direct-connection cable or over a network to the PLC. The program is stored in the PLC either in battery-backed-up RAM or some other non-volatile flash memory. So, using the outputs of the PLC we have designed a control panel in which we have used the contactors to give the supply to the motor and relays to short or cut the resistance from the rotor.

An induction motor or asynchronous motor is a 3 phase 4 pole induction motor. This is a type of alternating current motor where power is supplied to the rotor by means of electromagnetic induction. The 3 phase 4 pole induction motor electric motor turns because of magnetic force is exert between the stationary electromagnet called the stator and a rotating. This 3 phase 4 pole inductions electric motor turns because of magnetic force exert between a motionless electromagnet called the stator and a rotating electromagnet called the rotor.
Fig.2.1

STATOR:
The stator consists of 3-ph winding forms wound 'poles' that carry the supply current to induce a magnetic field that penetrates the rotor. In a very simple motor, there would be a single projecting piece of the stator (a salient pole) for each pole, with windings around it; in fact, to optimize the distribution of the magnetic field, the windings are distributed in many slots located around the stator, but the magnetic field still has the same number of north-south alternations. The number of 'poles' can vary between motor types but the poles are always in pairs (i.e. 2, 4, 6, etc.).
Fig.2.2 The rotor is wound for as many poles as the number of poles in the stator and is always 3-phase, even though the stator is wound for 2-phase.
11
These three windings are starred internally and other end of these three windings are brought out and connected to three insulated slip-rings mounted on the rotor shaft itself. The three terminal ends touch these three slip rings with the help of carbon brushes which are held against the rings with the help of spring assembly. These three carbon brushes are further connected externally to a 3-phase star connected rheostat. Thus these slip ring and external rheostat makes the slip ring induction motors possible to add external resistance to the rotor circuit, thus enabling them to have a higher resistance during starting and thus higher starting torque.
Fig.2.3
On the left side of the circuit, the equivalent resistance of the stator, which consists of the copper resistance and core resistance in series, is shown as Rs.
12
During asynchronous operation, the stator also induces some reactance, which is represented by the inductor Xs. The next inductor Xr represents the effect of the rotor passing through the stator's magnetic field. The effective resistance of the rotor (again with rotating in a magnetic field), Rr, is composed of: The equivalent value of the machine's real power (which changes with the torque and the load on the machine) The ohmic resistance of the stator windings and the squirrel cage of shorted rotor windings. At idle, the induction motor equivalent circuit is essentially just Rs and Xs, which is why this machine only takes up mostly reactive power. The idle current draw is often near the rated current, due to the copper and core losses which exist even at no load. In these conditions, this is usually more than half the power loss at rated load. If the torque against the motor spindle is increased, the active current increases by Rr, and thus in the rotor. Due to the construction of the induction motor, the two resistances both induce a magnetic field, in contrast to the three-phase synchronous machine, where the magnetic flux is induced only by the reactive current in the stator windings. The current produces a voltage drop in the cage portion of the Rr, but only a slightly higher voltage drop in the stator windings. Consequently, the losses increase with increasing load in the rotor faster than they do in the stator. The copper resistance Rs and the "copper" resistance from the cage portion of Rr both cause I2R losses, and therefore the efficiency of the machine improves with increasing load. The efficiency of the machine reduces with temperature. In contrast with a smaller frequency of the reactance Xs also getting smaller. In compliance with the rated current must shrink by the drive voltage delivered. Thus, the ratio of the voltage divider Rs to Xs and Rs and this increases engine power losses. In continuous operation this can only be an approximation because a nominal torque is generated because the cooling of rotor and stator is not included in the calculation. At higher than the rated speed or rated frequency induction motor can, however - in the context of isolation - are working on higher voltages and is more effective.
13
Frequently today, Rs / Rr are measure automatically and are thus in a position for any motor connected to automatically configure itself and thus to be protected from overload. A holding torque or speed close to zero can be achieved with a vector control. Here, too though, there can be problems with cooling since the fan is usually mounted on the rotor.
Since the flux is proportional to magnetizing current drawn by the three phase winding three magnatic fluxes occurs as shown in the fig.
Mathematically:
Let us consider waveforms as
Fig.2.4
14
As shown in figure2.4 angle of the resultant flux varies linearly and magnitude of the resultant flux will be maintained constant, therefore produces the rotating magnetic field.
Fig.2.5
The above figure 2.5 shows the direction of the three phase flux at various instants.
The induction motor does not have any permanent magnets on the rotor; instead, a current is induced in the rotor. To achieve this, stator windings are arranged around the rotor so that when energized with a poly-phase supply they create a rotating magnetic field pattern which sweeps past the rotor. This changing magnetic field pattern induces current in the rotor conductors.
15
According to Lenzs law these currents will induce in a direction such that it opposes the cause of production of that currents, as a result rotor also rotates in the same direction as the rotating magnetic field.
However, for these currents to be induced the speed of the physical rotor must be less than the speed of the rotating magnetic field in the stator (the synchronous speed Ns) or else the magnetic field will not be moving relative to the rotor conductors and no currents will be induced. If by some chance this happens, the rotor typically slows slightly until a current is rere induced and then the rotor continues as be before. fore. This difference between the speed of the rotor and speed of the rotating magnetic field in the stator is called slip. It is unit less and is the ratio between the relative speed of the magnetic field as seen by the rotor (the slip speed) to the speed of the rotating stator field. Due to this, an induction motor is sometimes referred to as an asynchronous machine
Synchronous speed
The Synchronous speed of the Induction motor is the speed at which stator Rotating magnetic field rotates in the air gap of the machine. It can be shown that the synchronous speed of a motor is determined by the following formula:
Where ns is the synchronous speed of the machine (in rpm), f p is the frequency of the AC supply (in Hz) is the number of magnetic poles per phase.
In this Project, a 4-pole pole motor operating on 50 Hz power would have a speed of:
=1500rpm
16
Slip
Fig.2.6 Fig.2.6 represents the typical torque curve as a function of slip slip. The slip is defined as a ratio of relative to the synchronous speed and is calculated using:
Fig.2.7
17
Fig.2.8
Why put resistance in series with the rotor? Squirrel cage induction motors draw 500% to over 1000% of full load current (FLC) during starting. While this is not a severe problem for small motors, it is for large (10's of kW) motors. Placing resistance in series with the rotor windings not only decreases start current, but also increases the starting torque. Figure below shows that by increasing the rotor resistance from R0 to R1 to R2, the breakdown torque peak is shifted left to zero speed. Note that this torque peak is much higher than the starting torque available with no rotor resistance (R0) Slip is proportional to rotor resistance, and pullout torque is proportional to slip. Thus, high torque is produced while starting.
Fig.2.9
18
The resistance decreases the torque available at full running speed. But that resistance is shorted out by the time the rotor is started. A shorted rotor operates like a squirrel cage rotor. Heat generated during starting is mostly dissipated external to the motor in the starting resistance. The complication and maintenance associated with brushes and slip rings is a disadvantage of the wound rotor as compared to the simple squirrel cage rotor. This motor is suited for starting high inertial loads. A high starting resistance makes the high pull out torque available at zero speed. For comparison, a squirrel cage rotor only exhibits pull out (peak) torque at 80% of its' synchronous speed
In this project we are going to introduce the rotor circuit external resistance up to three ohms, and these resistances can be cut down in three steps, so that we can achieve three different speeds.
19
Star-Delta starter
21
The star-delta starting method achieves low starting current by first connecting the stator windings in star configuration, and then after the motor reaches a certain speed, a double throw switch changes the winding arrangements from star to delta configuration. This method provides slow starting torque which can cause the motor to stall.
22
Load Torque
Where S = Slip of the motor, = Rotor induced EMF at standstill condition, = Rotor resistance, = Rotor winding reactance at standstill condition
23
At normal working conditions the Slip of the induction motor is very low and for constant torque load, Therefore equation can be written as
Torque
Therefore,
s = constant.
Since the Rotor induced EMF is directly proportional to the applied voltage to the Stator,
Since the synchronous speed ( ) is constant, By changing the applied voltage V, it is possible to vary the Rotor running speed ( ). This method, even though easiest, it is rarely used. The reasons are (a) For a small change in speed, there must be a large variation in voltage. (b) This large change in voltage will result in large change in flux density, thereby seriously disturbing the magnetic distribution/condition of the motor. (c) This method also requires a large power electronic circuit (AC voltage controller). As the Slip is inversely proportional to the square of the voltage, to increase the speed above synchronous speed, voltage has to be increased more than the rated, therefore v/f ratio greatly increases, Thereby the flux density increases and causes some abnormal conditions.
24
v/f control:
Fig.3.1 Characteristics of v/f control
25
For the speeds below rated speed for large variation of voltage, small change in speed occurs. Therefore normally v/f control is used. In this method, voltage and frequency are varied with respect to each other, so that the ratio is maintained constant. Therefore the flux density will be maintained constant. This method combines the advantages of both above two methods. But this method requires A Converter- Inverter circuit at the stator side.
For a constant torque and constant applied voltage, the slip to rotor resistance ratio is constant. Therefore S = k By increasing the rotor resistance, it is possible to increase the slip; thereby we can control the speed of the induction motor.
26
This method of speed control of is also useful for starting of the induction motor. Since rotor is short circuited, at the time of starting motor will draw large currents into the rotor. So to reduce the starting current this method is used. This method not only reduces the starting current but also increases the starting current. As we know the torque equation of induction motor is
Torque .
And the slip corresponding to maximum/Breakdown torque is S = / By considering all the above points Torque-slip or Torque speed characteristics are given as below.

A PROGRAMMABLE LOGIC CONTROLLER (PLC) is a digital computer used for automation of electromechanical processes Before the PLC, control sequencing, and safety interlock logic for manufacturing automobiles was accomplished using hundreds or thousands of relays, cam timers and drum sequencers and dedicated closed-loop controllers. Early PLCs were designed to replace relay logic systems. These PLCs were programmed in ladder logic, which strongly resembles a schematic diagram of relay logic. The computer is connected to the PLC through Ethernet, RS-232, RS-485 or RS-422cabling A small PLC will have a fixed number of connections built in for inputs and outputs. Typically, expansions are available if the base model has insufficient I/O. PLC programs are typically written in a special application on a personal computer, and then downloaded by a direct-connection cable or over a network to the PLC. The program is stored in the PLC either in battery-backed-up RAM or some other non-volatile flash memory. Unlike general-purpose computers, the PLC is designed for multiple inputs and output arrangements, extended temperature ranges, immunity to electrical noise, and resistance to vibration and impact. The PLCs have many applications in the day to day life. They are easily programmable and they can be operated using the cables, modems etc. All the automation processes are been done but using the PLCs, as they are more reliable.

PROJECT MANAGER
39
We use our personal computer to communicate with the device. A software which acts as an interface between the user and the device .The software is required to be installed in the PC. An RS232 cable acts as in interface between PC and the PLC. The AC31GRAF software allows you to create, send, test, recover and print user programs as well as initializing, starting and stopping the central unit. There will be a project manager in this software which provides programming as per the requirement of the application of the user.
With the use of this project manager we can write the programs in different languages and store it in the PLC. This project manager consists of many features, and has many predefined functional blocks in it which can be used for the programming. All the changes in the program can be done in the PC and then it can be transferred in to the PLC by using an RS-232 cable. The PLC is very fast, and it responds immediately to any change in the programs. The AC-31 GRAF software provides a wide range of functions. We can divide the program into different parts and write each part in different languages and then arrange them as per our requirement. We can call the programs written in different projects.

CHAPTER-6 DESIGN OF THE PANEL BOARD & WORKING OF THE PANEL, COMPONENTS USED IN THE PANEL
The PLC we have used is ABB AC-31, it takes DC 24volts input signals and gives out DC 24volts output signals. But here the aim is to start and run the three phase 415 volts slip ring Induction motor. Therefore we need to use the Relays and Contactors to interface the Induction motor with PLC.
Fig.6.1
41
All the outputs of the PLC are brought on to the Panel Board. This Panel is consisting of all the Relays and Contactors and main line supply terminals. So, this Panel board interfaces the three phase induction motor stator to the main line terminals. And it also interfaces the short circuited terminals to the rotor resistance terminals. The circuit diagram of the Panel board is shown in figure 6.1.
Fig.6.2
42
Fig.6.3
43
Then after 18 second when output comes on the terminal %o62.03, as it is connected to the three phase supply in reverse phase sequence (B-Y-R). Reverse phase sequence supply will be connected to the stator, so the motor starts running in reverse direction, then after 10 second PLC gives the output on the terminal %o62.01 the corresponding relay that is Relay2 will cut-off the first part of the resistance, so the motor speed gradually increases, then after 10 seconds the output will come on the terminal %o62.02, then corresponding relay will cut-down the total resistance then motor attains its full speed, then after sometime all the outputs will become low, then all the contactors and relays become inactive. Then motor comes to rest.
Fig.6.4
44
A simple electromagnetic relay consists of a coil of wire surrounding a soft iron core, an iron yoke which provides a low reluctance path for magnetic flux, a movable iron armature, and one or more sets of contacts. The armature is hinged to the yoke and mechanically linked to one or more sets of moving contacts. It is held in place by a spring so that when the relay is deenergized there is an air gap in the magnetic circuit. In this condition, one of the two sets of contacts in the relay pictured is closed, and the other set is open. Other relays may have more or fewer sets of contacts depending on their function. Since the rotor three sets of resistors, to cut down the three resistors at a time In this project we are using the relays which are having three NOs. When the output comes from the PLC the relay will be activated three NOs will be closed at a time.
6.4.2 CONTACTORS:
When a relay is used to switch a large amount of electrical power through its contacts, it is designated by a special name: contactor. Contactors typically have multiple contacts, and those contacts are usually (but not always) normally-open, so that power to the load is shut off when the coil is de-energized. Perhaps the most common industrial use for contactors is the control of electric motors.
Fig.6.5 The top three contacts switch the respective phases of the incoming 3-phase AC power, typically at least 480 Volts for motors 1 horsepower or greater. The lowest contact is an "auxiliary" contact which has a current rating much lower than that of the large motor power contacts, but is actuated by the same armature as the power contacts.
45
Fig6.6
The auxiliary contact is often used in a relay logic circuit, or for some other part of the motor control scheme, typically switching 230 Volt AC power instead of the motor voltage. One contactor may have several auxiliary contacts, either normally-open or normally-closed, if required.
Contactor is a large relay, usually used to switch current to an electric motor or other high-power load. Large electric motors can be protected from over current damage through the use of overload heaters and overload contacts. If the series-connected heaters get too hot from excessive current, the normally-closed overload contact will open, de-energizing the contactor sending power to the motor.

The time range which can be specified is: 1 m ... 24.8 days. Maximum time offset at the output : < 1 cycle time Meaningful range for PT: > 1 cycle time
Fig.7.3 Note: If the time is less than 65s, a word can be used for the preset time PT. Then the PT Input can be used: - With all the other word functions - From the central unit potentiometer - For MODBUS communication (double word are not allowed in MODBUS) directly without double word to word conversion. If word variables (%MW or %KW) are used for the parameter PT, two consecutive addresses are necessary. Never use %MW+1 or %KW+1 in your program in this case. Started timers are processed by the PLC operating system and are therefore completely independent of processing of the PLC program. An appropriate message of the operating system is not issued to the affiliated timer block in the PLC program until the timer has elapsed. Processing of a timer in the PLC operating system is influenced by the following commands. All running timers are stopped and initialized when one of the following actions occurs: Abort PLC program RUN/STOP switch from RUN -> STOP Warm or cold start

CONCLUSIONS:
This PLC based system is highly reliable. Without changing in any hardware connection just by simply changing the program in the PLC, The motor can be made to run in any of the two directions and for any duration of time. It is also possible to change the speed at any instant of time and to run at any one of three speeds for any required duration without altering any hardware. This system also used for one of the starting method of three phase slip ring Induction motor this system not only reduces the starting current to a limit, but also develops High starting torque which is required in many of the induction motor applications. This can be applicable to run the lift, by changing the logic in a program and it can also be used for any industrial applications. This PLC based system requires less hardware compared to any microcontroller or microprocessor based system. Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) are widely used in industrial control because they are inexpensive, easy to install and very flexible in applications. A PLC interacts with the external world through its inputs and outputs.
By connecting analog extension module Analog quantities like Speed of the motor and Voltage can be read and a closed-loop control systems can be implemented. By using analog extension modules it is possible to get the characteristics like Speed-torque, speed-frequency, torque-current etc. By connecting required number of electrical devices, it can extend to develop the SCADA system and those types of systems are more reliable. .
