Three Phase EMF Generation

1. A 3-phase power system has advantages over a single-phase system including constant power output, higher power-to-weight ratio for machines, and requiring less conductor material for the same power transmission and distribution. 2. A 3-phase induction motor is self-starting due to the rotating magnetic flux produced by the 3-phase supply, and 3-phase motors and transformers have better power factor and efficiency. 3. If a fault occurs in one winding of a 3-phase transformer, the other two windings can be used in an open delta configuration to continue serving 3-phase loads, which is not possible with a single-phase transformer.

Three Phase EMF Generation


2 Why 3- system?
3- power system has following advantages over the 1-
system.
1. Power in a 1- system is pulsating where as that of a 3-
system is merely constant.
2. Power to weight ratio of 3- alternators and other
machines is high as compared to 1- alternator.
3. For electric power transmission and distribution of same
amount of power, the requirement of conductor material is
less in 3- system as compared to 1- system.

3 4. 3-phase induction motor is self-started as the magnetic flux
produced by 3-phase supply is rotating in nature with constant
magnitude.
5. 3-phase motors and transformers have better power factor and
efficiency as compared to 1- motor.
6. If fault occurs in any winding of 3-phase transformer, the rest of
two winding can be used in open delta to serve the 3-phase load
which is not possible in 1- transformer.
7. A 3-phase system can be used to feed a 1- load, whereas vice-
versa is not possible.
8. DC rectified from 3-phase supply is having the ripple factor 4% and
DC rectified from 1- supply is having the ripple factor 48.2%.
4 1.Power in 1- Vs 3- system
1- Power is given as the product of V & I :
i.e.
Power in three phase system:
5
6 2.Power to weight ratio of electrical machines
To produce same amount of power, a single phase machine must
be larger in size when compared to a three phase machine.
7 3.Requirement of conductor material
Requirement of copper for a single phase Vs three phase system
is in the ratio of 2 : 0.5, which means single phase system
requires 4times more copper than that of three phase system.

4.Rotatting magnetic field


Rotating magnetic field is readily produced in the case of three
phase alternators and induction machines whereas difficult to be
produced in the case of single phase motors.
