A single-phase induction motor with only one winding on the stator cannot produce any starting torque. Hence, some extra arrangement is required to start the motor. In the running condition, the motor is capable of developing the torque with only one winding on the stator. The simplest method of starting is to provide an auxiliary winding on the stator in addition to the main winding. The two windings are placed in the stator with their axes displaced by 90 electrical degrees in space.
The permeance of the magnetic circuit is defined as the reciprocal of the reluctance. Permeance = 1/Reluctance It is defined as the property of the magnetic circuit due to which it allows the flow of the magnetic flux through it. Permeance is analogous to conductance in an electric circuit.
Atoms or ions with unpaired electrons are attracted to a magnetic field; the more unpaired electrons, the greater is the attraction. Such substances are called paramagnetic. Molecular oxygen is a paramagnetic gas by virtue of its two unpaired electrons.
Skin Effect The steady direct current distributes itself uniformly over the whole section of a conductor but the alternating current does not distribute uniformly rather than it tends to concentrate near the surface of a conductor. In fact in the AC system, no current flows through the core and the entire current is concentric at the surface regions. This phenomenon is called skin effect. The skin effect causes the effective resistance of the conductor to increase with the frequency of the current. The skin effect is due to eddy currents set up by the AC current. The skin effect has practical consequences in the design of radiofrequency and microwave circuits and to some extent in AC electrical power transmission and distribution systems.
Phosphorus (P) has 15 electron i.e 2,8,5. Hence the number of electron in its outermost orbit is 5. Silicon (Si) has 14 electron i.e 2,8,4. Hence the number of electrons in its outermost orbit is 4.
