Description

Set of Modular Electric Machines

This set of modular machines is proposed as ”first approach” in a Laboratory of Electric Machines; it has been designed to assembly and test a large number of electrical machine (motors and generators) using few base components. In fact, with this set it is possible to study:

  • the components of each type of machine,
  • the mechanical assembly of these components,
  • the electric connections of these components,
  • the power supply of the various windings; and
  • applying the measurement instruments to detect the most important parameters

Trainin Program

  • This set enables to expound the following training program on the machines of the table included in this leaflet:
  • Measurement of the resistance of windings and correction for temperature
  • Mechanical assembly of the various machines of the list with the proper care for alignments and the respect of the air gap
  • Electrical connections of the machines of the list. In detail, as regards DC machines, the connections with separate, shunt, series, additive compound and subtractive compound excitation will be examined
  • Influence of the position of brushes on DC motors
  • For all the motors, when the brake is provided, detection of electromechanical characteristics: Torque, RPM and efficiency of motors
  • Detection and measurement of the characteristics of DC generators and calculation of the output power
  • The same for the three-phase alternators, with R-L-C load. Measurement of power factor. The “Prime Mover” unit is recommended to drive the generators
