INTRODUCTION
Electrical motors are the backbone of the electrified society and are
responsible for 2/3rd of electrical energy generated.
Distribution system : 3 phase lines main feeders and heavily congested
areas and 1 phase lines laterals and rural areas.
Challenges faced in remote areas: higher cost for constructing 3 phase
service and low operating hours of loads.
Problem: motors have high starting current and motors of sizes greater than
15hp causes problem in the lines.
Hence the written pole motor, a new technology have been proposed which
eliminates the need of three phase power.
LIMITATION OF CONVENTIONAL
TECHNOLOGY
Draws excessive start-up current (inrush): 6-12 times their normal running
current during start-up .
No. of poles
Machine must have even no. of poles and deviating from this condition
will cause unstability at its rated speed.
ABOUT
Available in sizes upto 100hp, and start and run without exceeding the
limits of distribution lines.
CHARACTERISTICS
Single-phase
High efficiency
Reliable
CONSTRUCTION
ROTOR
CONTD
STATOR
The stator lamination stack is constructed using low loss electrical steel
laminations.
CONTD
Contained within the stator structure and are located between the main
stator windings.
MODES OF OPERATION
RUN MODE
TRANSITION
MODE
Start mode
Transition mode
The excitation coil is turned on when the motor reaches 80%- 90% of
rated speed.
The powerful excitation coil starts writing poles to the ferrite layer as the
rotor rotates.
Fig. 2 and 3 shows the poles are written into the magnetic layer in the
anticlockwise direction as the rotor rotates in the clockwise direction.
CONTD
The size and no. of poles generated are dependent on the rotational speed
of the machine AND the frequency of signal given to exciter coil.

APPLICATIONS
1.
GRAIN CLEANING
The plant is powered with a 30hp, 1800 rpm WPM which eliminates the
requirement of 3-phase power.
Other applications
2.POTATO IRRIGATION
4. GRAIN HANDLING

Operating Efficiency
With same no.of heads opened to each motor, a 2-foot bigger diameter and
better spray pattern was obtained with WPM.
2.
When temperature dropped below 55 degrees, motor would shut itself off
soon after startup.
CASE STUDY
In total, the Trask family pumped 2,300 hrs to irrigate about 275-300 acres
in 2003 at a consumption rate of 5 gals/hr of propane, costing $14,375.00.
Using the Written Pole motor to irrigate the same acres, the Trasks total
kW bill was $3,350.00 a savings of approximately 70%.
CONCLUSION
This unique product has applications virtually
anywhere that 3-phase power is either not
available, or is not economical to provide.
Has performance advantages over a
conventional induction motor including low
starting current, very high operating efficiency,
and excellent power factor.
It has the additional benefit of being able to ride
through brief service interruptions on 1-phase
power
Its allows one to operate much more efficiently
and at a lower starting current, offer a method
for powering high horsepower applications
where 1 phase power is available.
