Theory:
Working Principle:
A Single Phase Induction Motor consists of a single phase winding which
is mounted on the stator of the motor and a cage winding placed on the rotor.
A pulsating magnetic field is produced, when the stator winding of the single-
phase induction motor shown below is energized by a single phase supply.

The word Pulsating means that the field builds up in one direction falls
to zero and then builds up in the opposite direction. Under these conditions,
the rotor of an induction motor does not rotate. Hence, a single phase
induction motor is not self-starting. It requires some special starting means.

If the 1 phase stator winding is excited and the rotor of the motor is
rotated by an auxiliary means and the starting device is then removed, the
motor continues to rotate in the direction in which it is started.The
performance of the single phase induction motor is analyzed by the two
theories. One is known as the Double Revolving Field Theory, and the other
is Cross Field Theory. Both the theories are similar and explain the reason for
the production of torque when the rotor is rotating.

Double Revolving Field Theory:

The double revolving field theory of a single phase induction motor
states that a pulsating magnetic field is resolved into two rotating magnetic

fields. They are equal in magnitude but opposite in directions. The induction
motor responds to each of the magnetic fields separately. The net torque in
the motor is equal to the sum of the torque due to each of the two magnetic
fields. The equation for an alternating magnetic field is given as

Where β max is the maximum value of the sinusoidal distributed air gap flux
density produced by a properly distributed stator winding carrying an
alternating current of the frequency ω, and α is the space displacement angle
measured from the axis of the stator winding.

As we know,

So, the equation (1) can be written as,

The first term of the right-hand side of the equation (2) represents the
revolving field moving in the positive α direction. It is known as a Forward
Rotating field. Similarly, the second term shows the revolving field moving in
the negative α direction and is known as the Backward Rotating field.

The direction in which the single phase motor is started initially is known
as the positive direction. Both the revolving field rotates at the synchronous
speed. ωs = 2πf in the opposite direction. Thus, the pulsating magnetic field is
resolved into two rotating magnetic fields. Both are equal in magnitude and
opposite in direction but at the same frequency.

At the standstill condition, the induced voltages are equal and opposite
as a result; the two torques are also equal and opposite. Thus, the net torque
is zero and, therefore, a single phase induction motor has no starting torque.
