Manufacturing - eddy current explanation


Expert: Joe Martin - 9/21/2009

Question
hellosir,
your profile is very impressive!
I am working in an automation industry. Here we control the Dynamometer which is coupled with the engine. The dynamometer is controlled by passing Excitation current to the stator coil. But how it really happens? that is, how this excitation current or eddy curent opposes the rotor motion.

please explain in detail!



Thanking you in advance!!!

Answer
Chandra, your question appears to relate to the general principles of electromagnetic induction, which is not the sort of thing that can be addressed here. I suggest you consult a basic physics or electrical engineering text or search the web. The dynamometer manufacturer should be able to explain the operating principles used in your particular type of machine.
