General points on operation of three-phase AC motors with
frequency inverters
Figure 6.1 Characteristic of speed curves
Three-phase AC machines are executed in synchronous and asynchro-
nous design. Their stator windings are arranged and their electrical
properties designed such that in operation in a three-phase AC system a
rotating field is created in the motor which drives the rotor.
