Here are the power and driver boards that [Miceuz] designed to control a three-phase induction motor. This is his first time building such a setup and he learned a lot along the way. He admits it ...

Legacy designs of variable frequency drives (VFDs) used optocouplers or pulse transformers for isolation and mated them together with gate driver ICs. A more integrated approach, though, uses ...

Somewhere in most engineering educations, there’s a class on induction motors ... part for us is that the motor can run faster than either of the two drive frequencies. Sadly we’re not ...

One benefit is energy savings, because the system varies airflow by controlling motor speed instead of with an air outlet damper. A drive can control two main outputs of a three-phase induction ...

or all-wheel drive (with the addition of an induction motor between the front wheels). In base rear-wheel-drive trim, the Model 3 (long-range version) makes 258 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque.

(One of the first alternating-current induction motor inventors ... engine and transmission in hybrid models. “Honda’s drive motors are specifically designed for the applications,” an ...

more efficient motor design free from rare earths in 2021. The German automotive supplier has been using wireless induction with a rotor configuration it calls the Magnet-free Contactless ...
