vaihtovirtamotori
vaihtovirtamotori is a type of electric motor that converts alternating current electrical energy into mechanical energy. It operates on the principle of electromagnetic induction, where a rotating magnetic field in the stator interacts with the rotor to produce torque. The most common type is the induction motor, also known as the asynchronous motor. In an induction motor, the stator windings are supplied with alternating current, creating a rotating magnetic field. This field induces a current in the rotor conductors, which then generates its own magnetic field. The interaction between these two magnetic fields causes the rotor to spin. Another significant type is the synchronous motor, where the rotor rotates at the same speed as the rotating magnetic field of the stator, which is synchronized with the frequency of the AC power supply. vaihtovirtamotori are widely used in industrial applications, household appliances, and electric vehicles due to their robustness, reliability, and relatively simple construction. They are often chosen over direct current motors for many applications because they can be directly connected to the AC power grid without the need for complex rectification circuits. The speed of an induction motor is primarily determined by the frequency of the AC supply and the number of poles in the stator winding, while synchronous motors operate at a constant speed dictated by the supply frequency and pole number.
