All types of Motor & Generators - AC & DC‚ Starters:Induction Motor (3 Phase):The production of a rotating magnetic field (RMF) is essential for the operation of alternating current (a.c.) induction motors. The speed of rotation of an RMF is known as the synchronous speed and this will be governed by the value of the supply frequency and the number of poles wound within each phase winding. Each of the phase windings are 120 electrical degrees apart. Synchronous speed can be calculated using the following

1. INTRODUCTION 1.1) INTRODUCTION OF 3 PHASE INDUCTION MOTOR: The three phase induction motors are used in many industrial applications due to their reliability‚ low cost and high performance. Whereas this popular ac motor performance is affected by following type of faults. 1. ELECTRICALLY RELATED FAULTS (33%): The faults under this classification are single phasing‚ over/under voltage‚ overload over temperature. 2. MECHANICAL RELATED FAULTS (32%): The rotor winding failure‚ stator winding failure

DISCUSSION The present study was undertaken to estimate the specificity‚ sensitivity and predictive validity of measurements obtained with the Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS) for evaluation of preterm high risk infants. The present study included two scales i.e. the Alberta infant motor scale and the Peabody developmental motor scale – 2 (PDMS – 2) on high risk infants at 3 months‚ 6 months and 12 months of age. For the purpose of comparing the AIMS scale‚ the PDMS -2 scale was used as the gold

Some of standards are financial and others are non-financial and some of them are quantitative and others qualitative in nature. I have judged the performance goals with at least these three standards; 2.1 Profitability and Growth: Profitability is vital to success for Ford Motors. A profitable business pays interest to lenders‚ tax to authority and dividend to

balance sheets and rising global ambitions. In this essay I am going to use a specific acquisition example based on the article named “Tata Motors’ Acquisition of Daewoo Commercial Vehicles” to illustrate the Indian Acquisition problem. Statistically‚ there are 12 per cent to 14 per cent of Tata Motors’ revenue is from overseas at current status. And Tata Motors sets its communicated target at 25 per cent to 30 per cent‚ which means that the company aims to reach 25%-30% revenue from overseas in three

for Tata Motors to enter the global ultra-low-cost car market? Tata Motors is one of the India’s largest automobile makers where manufactures cheap vehicles. A firm can reach a superior percentage of profit by supply an identical goods or service at a lower cost (Grant‚ 2010). It is to believed that Tata Motors choose to enter global market in low cost market is because in lower medium and low incomes population is more where this can win in volume as well as sales. This enable Tata Motors to generate
