So me and some friends build a cable model(a pi-equivalent) for testing of a asynchronous induction motor(0,37kW). The powersupply is 400V AC.
Included some pictures of the model and the 1 phase equivalent.
My question is: Let's say the motor has been running at 1480 rpm for some time. What happens when the power is turned off? Will there occour any resonans, and if so, is it possible to calculate? I guess the biggest impace will be the inductors... Im really confused by this problem.
Is the power turned off right at the motor terminals fully disconnecting it? Or at the transformer, which means that you leave a rotating motor connected?
The later is far more complex, as you would have to take into account the motor's electrical and mechanical characteristics as it slows down.
BTW, I like the photos of your setup. Is this a school lab?
