AsynchronousMachine

Class Description

A rotating machine whose shaft rotates asynchronously with the electrical field. Also known as an induction machine with no external connection to the rotor windings, e.g. squirrel-cage induction machine.

Attributes

NameTypeDescription
asynchronousMachineTypeAsynchronousMachineKindIndicates the type of Asynchronous Machine (motor or generator).
converterFedDriveBooleanIndicates whether the machine is a converter fed drive. Used for short circuit data exchange according to IEC 60909.
efficiencyPerCentEfficiency of the asynchronous machine at nominal operation as a percentage. Indicator for converter drive motors. Used for short circuit data exchange according to IEC 60909.
iaIrRatioFloatRatio of locked-rotor current to the rated current of the motor (Ia/Ir). Used for short circuit data exchange according to IEC 60909.
nominalFrequencyFrequencyNameplate data indicates if the machine is 50 Hz or 60 Hz.
nominalSpeedRotationSpeedNameplate data. Depends on the slip and number of pole pairs.
polePairNumberIntegerNumber of pole pairs of stator. Used for short circuit data exchange according to IEC 60909.
