will an induction motor run on pulsed DC
will an induction motor run on pulsed DC
(OP)
Hi all,
I have been doing a lot of reading about how motors work and I am particularly interested in 3phase induction motors but I cant find the specific answers. I have 2 questions:
1: Can you run a delta wired 3phase AC induction motor on pulsed DC, using an electronic pulsing drive (essentially a DC VFD or something similar to what RC modelers use on their brushless DC motors) and using the appropriate voltage?
2:Is this a silly question?
Regards,
Neil.
