    Source for 36,000 RPM electric motor

    What kind of torque are you expecting. I know of a VFD that will output 600Hz. Also, at Tinker AFB I have sold and properly commissioned VFDs that are now operating upwards of 18000RPM. If you can live with 5.835 ft-lb of FLT at the motor shaft, you might be able to get away with it. If you...

    3phase VFD drives project

    I work at Siemens, and the PLC may be fast enough...I am not sure there. I know that there are some pretty high powered processors out there offered in standard products. This seems like a very expensive, and very difficult way to do something that has been done already (millions of times). If...

    basic question about motor

    Edison, Flux is dictated by load (which then dictates the gating angle in DC drives). When there is no magnetic flux per pole, the counter EMF in the armature is basically very small thus the armature windings pass the conutors from the line (the brushes) more and more quickly. This continues...

    invertter motor load test stand

    I have sold systems like this one before a number of times, and using 2 motors coupled shaft to shaft is fine (not to mention MUCH cheaper than installing a dyno). However, there are 3 points that you need to consider: 1) If you are building a test stand, you are likely trying to test multiple...

    Efficiency of motors (synchronous vs induction)

    Zoobie, Perhaps I am missing something, but did you ever get your answer about the 6600RPM motor? If not I think that I can help you if you have the motor FLA data. Oddly enough, simply selecting the correct base motor can get you to 6600RPM with few electrical problems. Depending on the size...
