The flux-oriented control (FOC) is a commonly used technique for three-phase electric motor control application. Here, the applied voltage pattern is defined using the space vector modulation (SVM) ...

One of the hidden complications of upgrading grain drying and handling systems is providing enough electricity to power the new larger electric motors. Electric motors that are larger than 15 hp ...

In the original version of this article, the second figure contained an error. The image has been updated. It’s important for engineers to have a good, working ...

The average efficiency of an internal combustion engine in real-world operation is measured at around 20 percent. 80 percent is lost as waste heat, of which only a small proportion is useful in winter ...

High-performance motors need a control mechanism that ensures enhanced smoothness, reliability, and efficiency. One of the most apt examples of such an application is the motor used in ...
