Field Weakening—What, How, and Why to do It
Let’s start with why field weakening is useful: it produces a wider speed range for a motor — with a constant torque at lower speeds and an almost constant power capability at higher speeds. This technique increases the motor power capability while also improving efficiency. There are many papers and patents discussing how to implement and optimize field weakening.
How shaft grounding extends motor life
Motor-driven applications like pumping and air handling often run at constant speed even when not required. Adding variable speed drives has many benefits, however they can cause premature motor failure if not properly grounded.
