An electrical motor is such an electromechanical device which converts electrical energy into a mechanical energy. In case of three phase AC operation, most widely used motor is Three phase induction motor as this type of motor does not require any starting device or we can say they are self-starting induction motors. For better understanding, the principle of three phase induction motor, the essential constructional feature of this motor must be known to us. This Motor consists of two major parts:
Stator of Three Phase Induction Motor
Stator of three phase induction motor is made up of numbers of slots to construct a 3 phase winding circuit which we connect with 3 phase AC source. We arrange the three-phase winding in such a manner in the slots that they produce one rotating magnetic fieldwhen we switch on the three-phase AC supply source.
Rotor of Three Phase Induction Motor
Rotor of three phase induction motor consists of a cylindrical laminated core with parallel slots that can carry conductors. The conductors are heavy copper or aluminum bars fitted in each slot and short-circuited by the end rings. The slots are not exactly made parallel to the axis of the shaft but are slotted a little skewed because this arrangement reduces magnetic humming noise and can avoid stalling of the motor.
Working of Three Phase Induction Motor
Production of Rotating Magnetic Field
The stator of the motor consists of overlapping winding offset by an electrical angle of 120o. When we connect the primary winding, or the stator to a 3 phase AC source, it establishes rotating magnetic fieldwhich rotates at the synchronous speed.
Secrets Behind the Rotation: According to Faraday’s lawan emf induced in any circuit is due to the rate of change of magnetic fluxlinkage through the circuit. As the rotor winding in an induction motorare either closed through an external resistance or directly shorted by end ring, and cut the stator rotating magnetic field, an emf is induced in the rotor copper bar and due to this emf a currentflows through the rotor conductor.
Here the relative speed between the rotating flux and static rotor conductor is the cause of current generation; hence as per Lenz’s law, the rotor will rotate in the same direction to reduce the cause, i.e., the relative velocity.
Thus from the working principle of three phase induction motor, it may be observed that the rotor speed should not reach the synchronous speed produced by the stator. If the speeds become equal, there would be no such relative speed, so no emf induced in the rotor, and no current would be flowing, and therefore no torque would be generated. Consequently, the rotor cannot reach the synchronous speed. The difference between the stator (synchronous speed) and rotor speeds is called the slip. The rotation of the magnetic field in an induction motor has the advantage that no electrical connections need to be made to the rotor.
Thus the three phase induction motor is:
Self-starting.
Less armature reaction and brush sparking because of the absence of commutators and brushes that may cause sparks.
The tie rods on a 2 stroke marine diesel engine hold the components of the engine together in compression and transmit the firing loads to the bedplate. Breakage, usually due to a fatigue fracture, can be caused by incorrect tightening, misalignment between the mating surfaces, overloading of the engine etc. Sods law dictates that often the bolt will fail at mid length. The top half can be removed by lifting it out, however the removing the bottom half will present a challenge, due to the restriction in headroom in the crankpit. Broken tie bolt (above) and right, detail of fatigue fracture. The most obvious method of removal may seem to be to cut the tierod out in small pieces using a grinding wheel/ burning gear. This is not recommended. Two alternatives are available: The first involves passing a wire loop down the tierod tube to the bottom of the tiebolt and lifting the bolt out. The second method outlined below involves jacking the bolt out from b...
Crosshead is attached on the upper part of the connecting rod, which connects the con-rod to the piston rod. The guide and the guide shoe runs on the guide rail to support the crosshead pin and to transfer the side thrust of the crosshead to the engine frame. In some old MAN B&W engines and SULZER RND engines, the piston rod passes through a bore in the crosshead and is bolted from the bottom by means of fine threaded nut. In the new design engines such as MAN SMC/ ME and SULZER RTA/ RT flex, the pison rod palm rests on the crosshead flat surface and four hydraulic bolts are used to tie them together. Guide and guide shoe, along with the connecting rod and crosshead, is an important arrangement as the guide directs the guide shoe in reciprocating direction while absorbing the side thrust produced during the motion of the connecting rod. The guide comprises of guide rail (normally integrated/ bolted with the frame) and guide plates, in which, the guide shoe moves up and do...
SAFETY VALVES At least two safety valves have to be fitted to the boiler. They may be both mounted on a common manifold with a single connection to the boiler. The safety valve size must not be less than 38mm in diameter and the area of the valve can be calculated from the following formula C x A x P = 9.81 x H x E where H= Total heating surface in m3 E = Evaporative rate in Kg steam per m2 of heating surface per hour P = Working pressure of safety valves in MN/m2 absolute A = Aggregate area through the seating of the valves in mm2 C = the discharge coefficient whose value depends upon the type of valve. C=4.8 for ordinary spring loaded valves C=7.2 for high lift spring loaded valves C= 9.6 for improved high lift spring loaded valves C= 19.2 for full lift safety valves C= 30 for full bore relay operated safety valves LIFT PRESSURE The safety v/v must be set at a pressure not exceeding 3% of the approved boiler working pressure. It is normal to set the suphtr saf...
