PERFORMANCE PREDICTION OF A NEW CONNECTION FOR DUAL VOLTAGE OPERATION OF SINGLE PHASE CAPACITOR RUN MOTOR

Abstract

This paper describes the theory and test results of a new connection of Single-Phase Capacitor Run Motor (SPCRM) for dual voltage operation. A program simulating the operation of the new connection gives sufficient results to illustrate its steady state performance. The effects of the operating capacitor on the performance of the new connection are included. Experimental measurements are carried out on both traditional and new connections for comparison and verification of simulating results. The agreement of experimental and computational results approves the modeling of the new connection.
