Synchronous Speed
Ns = 120 × f / P
Slip
s = (Ns − Nr) / Ns
Rotor Speed
Nr = Ns × (1 − s)
Ns = 120 × f / P
Slip
s = (Ns − Nr) / Ns
Rotor Speed
Nr = Ns × (1 − s)
Synchronous Speed
1500 rpm
Rotor Speed
1425 rpm
Slip
5.0 %
Slip Speed
75 rpm
Explanation:
The rotating magnetic field moves at synchronous speed.
The rotor rotates slightly slower than the magnetic field.
This difference in speed is called slip and is necessary
for torque production in an induction motor.
