Technology Demonstration: Magnetically-Coupled Adjustable Speed Drive Systems

Conference ·
OSTI ID:15002934

Adjustable speed drive technologies have the ability to precisely control motor system output and produce a number of benefits including energy and demand savings. This paper examines the performance and cost effectiveness of a specific class of ASDs called magnetically coupled adjustable speed drives, which use the strength of a magnetic field to control the amount of torque transferred between motor and drive shaft.
