Introduction

3 phase motor control has significant advantages over 1 phase in brushless motors:

  1. Self-starting
  2. More efficient
  3. Higher power factor - better aligment of applied power to used power - better coordination of windings with power application.

NOT! That is only for AC induction motors.

  • At each point of time, 3 phases are active, but offset by 120 degrees:

There is a 60 degree dead spot in the 120 degree (instead of 180 degree) mode of operation, allowing time for commutation. Makes sense - that could allow for energy saving in transition as commutation is occuring (by turning power off)

  • In the Colombian paper, the coils are run 60 degrees out of phase.

  • How do you control a motor with 3 phase power?
