MOTOR A motor is an extended version of a transformer. Here we can introduce the analogy between a transformer and a motor that is a motor is like a transformer with a moving secondary. The primary that is not moving is called stator and the secondary that is moving is called rotor. The type of motor that is used worldwide with a greater percentage is the three phase induction motor. The principle is somewhat like a transformer. If we place three coil at 120 degree physical alignment and also apply three phase ac supply which is also with 120 degree electrical phase relation, then the resultant flux, that is created from the vectorial space summation of the three phase fluxes, will rotate at the frequency of the supply voltage. Here the magnitude of the flux is same throughout the rotation. Now this revolving flux will cut the rotor and there will be an induced voltage across the rotor as well. As the rotor is short circuited there will be a flow of current through the short cir...
