SELECTION OF MOTORS FOR DIFFERENT DUTY CYCLES

   SELECTION OF MOTORS FOR DIFFERENT DUTY CYCLES :


1. Continuous duty cycle :
                         It denotes the motor operation at a constant load torque to reach steady state temperature. The load time and. temperature time graph are shown in fig 1.1

EXAMPLES :
              Paper mill drives compressors, conveyers, centrifugal pumps and fans

                                             fig. 1.1

2. Short time duty :
                  It denotes the operation of motor at constant load for short period followed by rest to cool down to the original starting temperature. Short time duty timings are generally 10, 30, 60 and 90 minutes. The load time and the temperature time graph are shown in fig 1.2 

EXAMPLES :
              Crane drivers, drives for household appliances, sluice gate drives, valve drives and machine tool drives 

                                            fig 1.2

4. Intermittent period duty with starting :
                          This is intermittent periodic duty where heal losses during starting can not be neglected Thus it consists of a period of starting, a period of operation at a constant load and rest period. The operating and rest periods are too short to attain the steady state ternperature in one duty cycle. Its characteriestics are shown in fig 1.3. In this duty heating of machine during braking is considered to be negligible. 

EXAMPLE :
        metal cutting, drilling tool drives, mine hoist drives for lift trucks.

                                              fig 1.3


5. Intermittent periodic duty with starting and braking :                                           This is the periodic duty where heat losses during starting and braking can not be ignored. Thus it consists of a period of starting, a period of operation with a constant load, a braking period, and a rest period. Thermal equilibrium is not reached in one duty cycle. Braking is done electrically and is quick. Its characteristics is shown in fig 1.5.

EXAMPLES :
           Several machine tool drives, drives for electric suburban trains and mine hoist

                                             fig 1.5



6. Continuous duty with intermittent periodic loading :
                        The operation of motor has a sequence of indentical duty cycle, each consisting of a period of operation and a period of operation on no load. Thermal equilibrium is not rached in one duty cycle. Its characteristics are shown in fig.1.6. This duty is distinguished from the intermittent periodic duty by a period of running at constant load is followed by a period of running at no load instead of rest. 

EXAMPLES :
              Pressing, cutting, shearing and drilling machine drives 

                                          fig 1.6

7. Continuous duty with starting and braking :
                           The operation of motor consists of period of starting, a period of operation at constant load a period of electric braking and there is no rest period. The characteristics are shown in fig 1.7.

EXAMPLES :
                    Blooming mill


                                             fig 1.7


8. Continuous duty with periodic speed changes  :
                    Operation of the motor has a sequence of indentical duty cycle, each cycle is having a period of running at one load and speed and followed by another period of running at different speed and load. There is no rest period. Its characteristics are shown in fig 1.8.

LAYOUT OF 110/11KV SUBSTATION

                   LAYOUT OF 110/11KV SUBSTATION: CIRCUIT DIAGRAM: THEORY : 1. The 3 phase 3 wire 110 KV feeder is tapped and brought to the Gang operated (GO) switch. The GO switch consists of isolators connected in each phase of the 3 phase line. 2. From the isolator the 110KV line is brought to the 110 KV Bus bar through Circuit Breaker (CB).  3. From the 110KV Bus bar, the 110 KV line is fed to the HT side of the 110KV/11KV stepdown transformer through Isolator. The transformer steps down the voltage to 11KV.  4. In fig.1.2. two 110/11KV transformers are connected from the 110 KV bus bar and the LT side of the power transformers are connected to the common 11KV Bus  through CB and Isolators. 5. From the 11KV Bus bar no of feeders are taken through  isolator and CB.  6. Lighting arresters are provided for protection from lightning and current transformers for...

ELECTRICAL TRACTION

                              ELECTRICAL TRACTION : ELECTRIC TRACTION :            Electric traction means a locomotion in which the driving force is derived from electric motors.  There are many advantages of electric traction over other forms of jocomotion in the current days of traction in any country of development.  In fact, it is a fast-paced, safest and economical way of transporting and transporting goods to the modern day. In this type of drive the locomotive is equiped with a d.c series motor or ac series motor or three phase induction motor. The electric energy is directly fed into the motor and torque developed by the propelling the train.                             TRACTION SYSTEMS : The most commonly used traction methods are as follows. 1.  Steam engine drive...
