Subject Name: Electric Drive

Subject Code: 6EE4-05

Introduction: Objective, scope and outcome of


the course
Virendra Sharma,
Electrical Engineering Department
Course outcome: After successful completion of
this course, the students should be able to
 Develop capability to select a suitable DC Motor and custom
devices for Electrical drives. Also acquire detailed knowledge
on AC-DC, DC-AC and DC-DC Converters and their modelling.
 Acquire knowledge on how DC Drives may pollute the power
supply and how to mitigate such pollution.
 Design the speed control and current control loops of a DC
Motor drive.
 Learn about various AC machines which is used in AC drive
system with their working principle & controlling scheme.
 Evaluate the performance of AC drives on the basis of the
speed-torque curve.
Introduction: Whenever motion or speed control is required in large number
of industrial and domestic applications like
 Transportation system
 Rolling mills
 Paper machines
 Textile mills
 Machine tools
 Fans
 Pumps
 Robots
 Washing machines etc. Systems employed for motion control are called
electric drives.
 It may employ any of prime movers such as diesel or petrol engines, gas or
steam turbines, steam engines, hydraulic motors and electric motors.
 If we use Electric motors for supplying mechanical energy for motion
control in any drive system are called as Electrical Drives.
Introduction: It is the study of the electric system involving
controlling of electric motors in both steady state and dynamic
operation. It is achieved through taking into account the
characteristics of the mechanical loads and the behavior of the
power electronic converters.

Basic components Of Electric Drives: It is the study of
the electric system involving controlling of electric motors in
both steady state and dynamic operation. It is achieved through
taking into account the characteristics of the mechanical loads
and the behavior of the power electronic converters.
Basic components Of Electric Drives:
Sources may be two type (1) AC and (2) DC type
AC sources uses as per requirement of Electric motor and power
modulator which is used for supplying the mechanical power to
demanded by mechanical load.
Also DC sources uses as per requirement of Electric motor and power
modulator which is used for supplying the mechanical power to
demanded by mechanical load.
Motor may be use as per application of electric Drive
AC Motor
DC Motor
Power Modulator
The power modulator regulates the output power of the source. It
controls the power from the source to the motor in such a manner that
motor transmits the speed torque characteristic required by the load.
Basic components Of Electric Drives:
Control Unit
The control unit controls the power modulator which
operates at small voltage and power levels. The control
unit also operates the power modulator as desired.
It also generates the commands for the protection of power
modulator and motor. An input command signal which
adjusts the operating point of the drive, from an input to the
control unit.
Sensing Unit
It senses the certain drive parameter like motor current
and speed.
 It mainly required either for protection or for closed loop
operation of drive system.
ADVANTAGES:
Feasible control characteristics
Available in wide range of speed torque
and power
Higher efficiency
Lower noise
Cleaner operation
Low maintenance requirements
Electric energy is easy to transport
