This type of motor is designed to operate with the start winding and it’s series capacitor permanently connected to the supply. lt has two capacitors connected in parallel in the start winding circuit for starting purposes. The running capacitor is employed to correct the power factor. As a result, this motor has a higher starting torque as well as a higher efficiency. These motors are employed in sizes ranging from 375 W to 7.5 kW. The power factor of these motor is upto 80% to 100%.
The factor by which, the induced E.M.F gets reduced due to short pitching is called pitch factor or coil span factor denoted by Kc. It is given as Kc = cosα/2 given α = 60° Kc = cos60/2 Kc = cos30° Kc = √3/2
In the PMMC type instrument, the deflection is directly proportional to the current flowing through the instrument, we get a uniform scale for the instrument. It gives a uniform scale of upto 270° or more. Td ∝ I
The emitter current (IE) of a transistor has two components such as base current (IB) and collector current (IC). The base current (IB) is about 2% of the emitter current (IE), but the collector current (Ia) is about 98% of the emitter current (IE). ∴ IE > IC > IB IE = IB + IC
