In the global economy, industrial electric motors power a wide variety of applications. The automobile industry is responsible for up to 70% of all energy used in industrial settings, 35% of all energy used in the commercial and service sectors, and 45% of all electricity produced globally, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). The fact that motor-related downtime costs thousands of dollars per hour demonstrates the significance of electric motors in a range of industrial applications. Most greenhouse gas emissions and environmental harm caused by power plants are attributable to these facilities. They also play a substantial part in the constantly growing demand for electricity in emerging economies. There is a global economic opportunity to boost industrial motor energy efficiency by 20 to 30 percent, with typical payback periods of less than three years. Electric motors are responsible for approximately 15%, or 4.3 billion tons, of the 26 billion tons of carbon dioxide emitted annually globally. Increasing energy efficiency is one of the most cost-effective and low-risk ways to minimize the rising energy demand and greenhouse gas emissions.
Utilize a robust engine for the following reasons:
- Reduced running expenses
- Cooler and quieter performance
- Enhanced motor dependability and longevity
- Reduced greenhouse gas emissions
Prioritizing the Motor Analysis:
Energy is lost in electric motors due to windage, friction, and losses in the stator, rotor, and magnetic core. These losses are the source of the motor’s declining efficiency. Given energy consumption and industrial electric motor use, it is evident that efficiency evaluation and minimal energy performance standards are required. The precision with which motor efficiency and motor loss are measured is dependent on the type of measurement employed. No single testing method is widely adopted across all industries. Despite being a basic concept, it can be difficult to evaluate and certify the energy efficiency of a motor using multiple criteria.
Techniques Commonly Used for Gauging Performance:
In industrial applications, the following approaches for testing are frequently mentioned:
IEEE 112-2004 is a popular motor and generator testing procedure. 2014 version of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) document 60034-2-1, Tests. methods for estimating the losses and efficiencies of electrical spinning equipment. JEC 37 is a standard for induction devices developed by the Japanese Electrotechnical Committee. IEEE Standard 112-2004
Ten energy efficiency testing methodologies are covered in this system. To utilize the most important:
- Simple input and output testing
- Evaluate the loss-separated inputs and outputs.
- Check for machine separation loss from back-to-back.
- Using smoothed residual losses to compute load losses
- The Eh-star approach
Three key categories comprise the IEC standard test:
- Calculating the input-output power of one device.
- Assessing the input-output power of two series-connected devices.
- Losses on one machine were computed.
The test procedures for Japanese standard JEC 37 completely disregard the additional load losses. Improving the energy efficiency of machines and appliances has significant economic and environmental benefits, including a reduction in running expenses for businesses.
