7053: Efficiency Testing of Switched Reluctance and AC Permanent Magnet Motors

Many industrial processes require precise and accurate control over system parameters such as flow, pressure, temperature, process speed, etc. The use of a variable frequency drive (VFD) to match the motor driven equipment’s speed and torque to the requirements of the process load can result in large energy savings, particularly in variable torque or centrifugal loads. It is estimated that 30 % of industrial motor systems may benefit from the application of a VFD to control motor speed and
