Most likly a VFD maybe a soft start so this would eliminate the in rush current and reduce temp. Also it is possiable to block the mass flow but not normally done!
Maybe it is completely useless that is what I need to find out. I have heard that it will take more energy to start a large motor over and over again then to just keep it running at a low rpm because of the inrush current it takes to get the motor going. Now I may have gotten some bad...
Hello does anyone have or know where I might find some studies of the advantages to running an 100-200Hp AC motor at low speed versus making frequent starting and stopping? And what energy savings there might or might not be associated with it?
