Energy Efficient Operation of tether Phase conclusion MotorEnergy Efficient Operation of 3 Phase Induction Motor Using DEL one Converter for Machine Tools short- deepenDELSTAR convertor is an electronic system to be interfaced with the existing STAR DELTA shabu for machine tools. Induction aim consumes more office while it is commandd at DELTA mode for a long cartridge holder under no hitch check off. The proposed system gives the solution for the above stated enigma. When the turn on on the aim is less(prenominal) than 40% of full blame, it switches the locomote to operate in STAR mode to save nothing. When the shoot down increases beyond 40%, it machine rifleally switches the get to operate in DELTA mode. The boosterting signal regimen is not disturbed. The proposed converter is recommended for applications where cut multifariousnesss be not too fast (not more than 120 measure/hour). This can be employ with any capacity take by choosing appropriate curr ent transformers (C.Ts) and setting the current level exploitation the peck create in.Keywords DELSTAR converter, machine tools, vigor saving, current transformersIntroductionLathes allow for carry through as many operations like face, turn, neck, taper, drill, bore, spin, file, polish, hone, buff, knurl, cut internal and impertinent threads and cut off work. Relatively hard materials ar handled by a metal lathe. For repetitive production of parts, turret lathes and capstan lathes atomic number 18 utilize. Induction force of several HP is coupled with turret lathe and CNC machines too.Induction beat backs constitute utmoster currents during their boosterting operations than is the case under full cut running conditions. In the early days Direct-on-Line acquit been used. The short succession inrush currents, greatly exceeds the jump currents. Complex starting regularitys to crop beginning currents is compromised by other inrush currents 1, 4.Induction labors a re started normally with accost on line, but when large repulses are started with D.O.L. grouch, due to starting muckle current, the append line potency is disturbed. To limit the starting surge current, lessen voltage is habituated to gun trigger motors at start and then have full supply voltage when they run up to near rated speed. comparison between the different starting methods of instauration motor in hurt of power quality is to figure out the reliable starting method which has the less power quality problems 5. Efficient torque/current characteristics are provided by STAR-DELTA, industries prefer STAR-DELTA starters for their application. The large amounts of losses which occur at low speeds determine the users given by the wound rotor only for starting. The losses specific to the additional rotor resistor are quite precedentized 3 while analyzing the performance of the induction motor.Industries will operate three anatomy induction motors at delta society mode since machine runs real expeditiously when the machine under amply despatched condition. When the motor is plastered less than 40% of the full load, it runs under inefficient energy zone. So, the induction motor will consume more power from the supply side during partially loaded condition. In order to compensate the power consumption, the motor load is virtually added by connecting stator winding from delta mode to star mode. If the load on the motor is increased above 40% of full load current, winding connection automatically changes from star to delta for efficient operation. attend 1 Block plat of proposed system formation AnalysisExisting SystemMotor draws more current than the full load at the magazine of starting, resulting in burnout of motor winding and / or starter. When DOL starter is used, because of high starting current, there is a big voltage dip in the electrical installation and therefore DOL starter is not fitting for higher rating squirrel cage induction motors. Significant energy wastage results reduce motor life. The system which exists is starting current reduction and the starters at the clip of start of motor is star-delta starter. The STAR-DELTA starter is used at the time of starting only, not under running condition. The starter may be operated semi-automatically or fully-automatically. The semi-automatic operation is done by the push button switch. Fully-automatic starter is built with the timer which is used to change the STAR to DELTA connection after about predefined time. The both types of STAR-DELTA starter changes the winding connection from STAR to DELTA, and it is not workable to change the winding connection from the DELTA to STAR during running of induction motor. This problem is overcome by employing proposed starter with induction motor which changes the winding connection during both starting and running condition. 2.2 Explored TechnologyThe proposed converter (refer figure 1) is to change the winding conn ection from STAR to DELTA and immorality versa at the running condition of the induction motor. The switching process is done according to the load conversion of the motor at particular instant. The construction of the converter is to a fault interchangeable to the starter with the small modification in the circuit. It is an automatic converter and the automatic process is made by the micro ascendency. In the ancient system, there is no microcontroller available. Any one of the phase is taken for the current sensing using current demodulator. The sensor circuit continuously senses the load variation in the motor and the output is produced according to the variation of load. When the load on the motor is less than 40% of the full load rated current, the controller activates the STAR connected contactors, so that the motor can run at STAR connection. When the load on the motor is above 40% of full load rated current, the controller activates the DELTA connected contactors, so tha t the motor can run at DELTA connection. The converter accurately operates for the pre-setting value of the current sensor. If the motor load current reaches to 41% of the full load rated current the converter switches the motor from STAR to DELTA. And, if the motor load current comes 39% of the full load current, the converter switches the motor from DELTA to STAR. The converter can sense the current continuously so that the losses are reduced by maximum amount. Moreover, the converter can also be used as the starter.System SpecificationHardware wholes are split into many sub unit of measurements and each unit requires power supply to energize the circuit. go steady 2 Power supply circuit for passs and microcontroller+12V SPDT communicate and +5V SPDT relay were used here. So that relay requires +12V supply and +5V also for microcontroller unit. The LM7812 and LM7805 are the voltage regulators which is used to regulate the output voltage of the bridge rectifier in material body 2. Then the output is again filtered with the capacitor. +24V power supply is used to energize the sensor unit. The current is sensed with the help current transformer with pilot burner unit to adjust the current setting. This circuit is intentional with the help of LM317k voltage regulator in figure 3.Figure 3 rophy diagram for sensor unit motorAbove the preset value, the transistor operates and relay gets energized so that microcontroller switches the operation into DELTA mode. Microcontroller switches the operation into DELTA mode. The conversion process takes minimal time in milli seconds and give accurate change over from STAR to DELTA and vice versa.ULN2003 is a driver which drive the signal stimulant from current sensor to the microcontroller and also the STAR and DELTA contactor. The analog output from the microcontroller is not suitable to operate the +12V relay. So the analog output of the microcontroller is changed from the +5V to +12V with the help of driver unit ( refer Figure 4).The microcontroller is to control the switching of STAR or DELTA relay while the motor is under the running condition. When the load is current is below the predefined value, the controller will energize the STAR contactor and if the controller input is high, it will activate the DELTA contactor. The input and output are enabled in the same port of the microcontroller. The pin 2 is enabled for STAR and the pin 3 is enabled for DELTA. The mode of operation is screeninged in the liquidness Crystal Display. XTAL1 and XTAL2 are the input and output respectively of an inverting amplifier which is used as a crystal oscillator in the frequency range of 1.2 MHz to 12 MHz. The RESET circuit is connected with the microcontroller in pin 9 (refer Figure 5).Figure 4 ULN2003 driver circuitFigure 5 Circuit diagram of controller unitThe output of the relay driver is given to the relay coil for energizing. The output of the relay driver unit is either 0V or 5V. The relay is connect ed in 15th pin of the driver IC. So, whenever the output of the relay is +5V then the star contactors will be activated. The delta unit is also used to connect the motor with the converter part.Figure 6 Circuit diagram of star contactorThe output of the delta relay driver unit is either 0V or 5V. So, whenever the output of the relay is +5V then the delta contactor will be activated.Figure 7 Circuit diagram of delta contactorWith the help of the above arrangements, the contactors change the winding connection from STAR to DELTA and DELTA to STAR simultaneously while the motor is under running condition. The LCD display unit will display the motor running condition and also the load current. LEDs are used to indicate the status of the relays.Experimental ResultsThe converter is tested with 5HP squirrel cage induction motor by conducting simple brake test in laboratory. The power factor is fairly dear(p) in delta mode compare to the star for the same current values of the motor. The p erformance of the induction motor is good in delta connection but only when the motor is under fully loaded condition. Under no load or partially loaded condition, the motor operated in inefficient zone since machine consumes more energy than star mode.The table given below proves that the converter can purify the efficiency of the motor at the same time it can reduce the energy consumed by the motor significantly.TABLE IEnergy obstetrical delivery Data For A 5 HP MotorLoad on-line(prenominal) in Amps.Power FactorOutput Power in Watts quintet AmpsDeltaStarDeltaStarDeltaStarDeltaStar3.70.80.170.2336712821405324.40.950.150.2447616530256414.710.150.3454523331776734.81.40.280.65866606296188752.10.430.801240986292212315.52.70.530.8517411493329817356.350.710.862691255936612918The tests conducted on a 5 HP motor with a full load current of 7.9 amps, the energy savings on no load is 65.3%, reduction in operating current is upto 79.4%, reduction in demand 78.8% and improvement in power fa ctor 60%.Figure 8 Characteristics of Motor (Star Delta)Discussions And Future DevelopmentsThis work concluded that the star delta converter is very useful for all the kind of three phase induction motors from smaller rating to the larger rating, the converter can be designed accordingly. In the present days, the starters only used and it has low sensitivity. If the automatic star delta star converter is replaces the starter, the performance and life time of the motors will be increased. Since the converter can be operatable at the running time of the motor it reduces the losses in switching and during operation. The converter is designed with the small ironware units and it is very easy to install with the motors. Cost wise also the converters is very economical. This converter will reach the market with cheaper cost soon and reduces the energy consumption.ReferencesP. C. Krause, O. Wasynczuk, and S. D.
