Description : With a neat sketch give the working of shaded pole induction motor.

Last Answer : Explanation: It has squirrel cage rotor and salient pole stator. The stator poles are shaded partially by short circuited conductor band to create the phase difference between the fluxes emerging from shaded ... rotating magnetic field in the air-gap and torque is exerted on the squirrel cage rotor.

Last Answer : (i)Applications of Shaded pole motor: 1. Small fans 2. Toy motors 3. Hair dryers 4. Ventilators 5. Electric clocks 6. Record players 7. Motorized valves 8. Gramophones 9. Photocopying ... 5. Portable Drilling Machines 6. Electric Shavers 7. Mechanical computing Machines 8. Machine Tools etc.

Last Answer : Locked rotor current of a shaded pole motor is slightly more than full load current.

Last Answer : The shaded pole motor is used for low starting torque.

Last Answer : In case of a shaded pole motor the direction of rotation of the motor is from main pole to shaded pole.

Last Answer : A shaded pole motor can be used for toys, hair dryers, circulators etc.

Last Answer : The range of efficiency for shaded pole motors is 5% to 35%.

Last Answer : In a shaded pole single-phase motor, the revolving field is produced by the use of shading coils.

Last Answer : In a shaded pole motor, the shading coil usually consist of a single turn of heavy copper wire which is short-circuited and carries only induced current.

Last Answer : The torque produced in induction type relay (shaded pole structure) is inversely proportional to the square of the current.
