Bi Directional Rotation of Single Phase Induction Motor Without Run Capacitor

This document describes how to create bidirectional rotation in a single phase induction motor without using a run capacitor. It does this by using a microcontroller with a 3-phase bridge to generate two phases that are 90 degrees out of phase, mimicking the effect of the start and run windings. The microcontroller program also allows reversing the rotation by automatically reversing the phases when a push button is pressed. The hardware requirements include a microcontroller, MOSFET/IGBT gate driver, crystal oscillator, toggle switches, and various passive components. The software requirements include using an embedded C or assembly compiler like Keil.

Bi Directional Rotation of Single Phase Induction Motor without

Run Capacitor

Abstract

A capacitor run single phase induction motor is usually a 2 phase asymmetrically wound motor.
The main winding is designed to take the load current. The current flowing through the start
winding having a capacitor in series is much less than the main winding. In order to produce the
magnetic force produced by the start winding very near to the main winding the start winding has
additional turns, higher resistance and reduced current flowing through it. This makes the motor
windings asymmetrical. The value of the capacitor is so chosen that the total impedance on the
start winding produces sufficient phase shift of about 90 degrees to generate a rotating magnetic
field.

Using a microcontroller with a 3 phase bridge and using one as the common and the other 2 as 2
phases out of phase by 90 degrees produces the same effect. The program also takes care of
reversing the rotation by automatically reversing the phases upon a push button.
