Motor (English: Electric machinery, commonly known as "motor") refers to an electromagnetic device that realizes electric energy conversion or transmission according to the law of electromagnetic induction. In the circuit, it is represented by the letter m (the old standard is d). Its main function is to generate driving torque as the power source of electrical appliances or various machinery. The generator is represented by the letter g in the circuit. Its main function is to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. At present, the most commonly used is to use heat energy and water energy to drive the generator rotor to generate electricity.
1. According to the type of working power supply, it can be divided into DC motor and AC motor.
1) DC motors can be divided into brushless DC motors and brushed DC motors according to their structures and working principles.
Brushed DC motors can be divided into permanent magnet DC motors and electromagnetic DC motors.
Electromagnetic DC motors are divided into series excited DC motors, parallel excited DC motors, separately excited DC motors and compound excited DC motors.
Permanent magnet DC motors are divided into rare earth permanent magnet DC motors, ferrite permanent magnet DC motors and Al-Ni-Co permanent magnet DC motors.
2) Among them, AC motors can also be divided into single-phase motors and three-phase motors.
2. According to the structure and working principle, it can be divided into DC motor, asynchronous motor and synchronous motor.
1) synchronous motors can be divided into permanent magnet synchronous motors, reluctance synchronous motors and hysteresis synchronous motors.
2) Asynchronous motors can be divided into induction motors and AC commutator motors.
Induction motors can be divided into three-phase asynchronous motors, single-phase asynchronous motors and shielded pole asynchronous motors.
AC commutator motor can be divided into single-phase series motor, AC -DC dual-purpose motor and repulsion motor.
3. According to the starting and running modes, it can be divided into three types: capacitor-started single-phase asynchronous motor, capacitor-operated single-phase asynchronous motor, capacitor-started single-phase asynchronous motor and split-phase single-phase asynchronous motor.
