Copyright 2003 Operation Technology, Inc.
Why to Do MS Studies? • Ensure that motor will start with voltage drop • If Tst
• Ensure that voltage drop will not disrupt other loads • Utility bus voltage >95% • MCC bus voltage >80% • Generation bus drop <7%
• Ensure motor feeders sized adequately

Operation of Induction Motor • AC applied to stator winding • Creates a rotating stator magnetic field in air gap • Field induces currents (voltages) in rotor • Rotor currents create rotor magnetic field in air gap • Torque is produced by interaction of air gap fields

Slide 6
Slip Frequency • Slip represents the inability of the rotor to keep up with the stator magnetic field • Slip frequency S = (ωs-ωn)/ωs

Slide 12
Voltage Variation • Torque is proportional to V^2 • Current is proportional to V
Copyright 2003 Operation Technology, Inc. – Workshop Notes: Motor Acceleration
Slide 13
Frequency Variation • As frequency decreases, peak torque shifts toward lower speed as synchronous speed decreases. • As frequency decrease, current increases due reduced impedance.
Copyright 2003 Operation Technology, Inc. – Workshop Notes: Motor Acceleration
Slide 14
Number of Poles Variation •
As Pole number increases, peak torque shifts toward lower speed as synchronous speed decreases.

Slide 15
Rotor Z Variation • Increasing rotor Z will shift peak torque towards lower speed.

Calculation Methods I • Static Motor Starting – Time domain using static model – Switching motors modeled as Zlr during starting and constant kVA load after starting – Run load flow when any change in system
• Dynamic Motor Starting – Time domain using dynamic model and inertia model – Dynamic model used for the entire simulation – Requires motor and load dynamic (characteristic) model Copyright 2003 Operation Technology, Inc. – Workshop Notes: Motor Acceleration

Calculation Methods II
Copyright 2003 Operation Technology, Inc. – Workshop Notes: Motor Acceleration
Slide 26
Static versus Dynamic • Use Static Model When – Concerned with effect of motor starting on other loads – Missing dynamic motor information
• Use Dynamic Model When – Concerned with actual acceleration time – Concerned if motor will actually start
