Abstract :
THE APPLICATION OF direct current to the stator of a 3-phase induction motor long has been recognized as a means of producing a retarding torque on the moving rotor. Methods have been given for evaluating the average braking torque, but a simple means for determining the complete speed torque curve during braking will be of value for the control engineer.
