Induction Motor
ns =( f /p) rev/s,
Slip:
If the rotor runs at the same speed as the rotating magnetic field,
no e.m.f.s are induced in the rotor, hence there is no force on
them and no torque on the rotor.
Thus the rotor slows down. For this reason the rotor can never run
at synchronous speed.
Slip cotnd:
When there is no load on the rotor, the resistive forces
due to windage and bearing friction are small and the
rotor runs very nearly at synchronous speed.As the rotor is
loaded, the speed falls and this causes an increase in the
frequency of the induced e.m.f.s in the rotor bars
and hence the rotor current, force and torque increase.
slip speed = ns nr rev/s
Problem A 3-phase, 60 Hz induction motor has 2 poles.
If the slip is 2 per cent at a certain load, determine
(a) the synchronous speed,
(b) the speed of the rotor, and
(c) the frequency of the induced e.m.f.s in the rotor.

Power P=2nT,
where T is the torque in newton metres,
hence torque T =(P/2n).
If P2 is the power input to the rotor from the rotating
field, and Pm is the mechanical power output (including
friction losses)
Then P2 Pm is the electrical
or copper loss in the
rotor, i.e.
from which P2 Pm =I2r R2. Hence
