2. INTRODUCTION
Linear Induction Motor (LIM) is the linear form of rotary Induction motor .
It transform the electromagnetic energy to translational motion without
using any gear mechanism.
LIM is used for machine tools, linear tables, textile
tools, saws, separators, transportation systems .and many others.

3. MODEL DEVELOPED IN IRIEEN,NASIK
The project has been an extension of the AICTE project in the department of
Electrical Engineering, IT BHU.
All the experiments were performed over a live practical model of LIMP Metro Train
System at Indian Railways Institute of Electrical Engineering, Nasik.
It is a 3 phase,4 pole,33 slots,H class insulated with length of .583 m,width of
.132m and height of .062m.

4. Static Test And its Important
It helps in the study of starting characteristic of Linear Induction Motor.
Static test result is used for determining the voltage and frequency response of the
LIM at standstill and it will help in selection of the electrical drive for starting and
control of LIM for traction purpose.
Various tests that were performed to simulate practical situations are under
mentioned:
1. Constant V/f control testing by changing air gap between primary and secondary for
different V/f ratios.
2. Tests conducted by de-aligning primary with respect to secondary .
3. Tests performed by creating breaks in the secondary circuit of LIM. The breaks are
created in the electrical circuit and magnetic circuit independently as well as
simultaneously.
4. Voltage control testing for constant frequency of 50 Hz

5. V/f control test
The tests were carried out for V/f ratios of 6, 8, 9 and 10 each under 3 different air
gaps of 9mm, 7mm and 5mm using ACS 600 VVVF Drive.
Propulsion Force variation with frequency for different V/f Input Power variation with frequency for different V/f
for 9mm airgap for 9mm airgap

6. Results of V/f control test
For best starting, V/f control should be done starting at 25 Hz in order to
avoid initial saturation due to voltage boost up.
Air gap of 7 mm was found to be the optimal for system considered.
Airgap of 5mm is very tough to achieve .
Airgap of 9mm lead to reduction in the force which makes them not
suitable for our system

7. De-Alignment Test
The de-alignment tests are carried by de-aligning the LIM primary with respect to
secondary in lateral direction .
11 %( 15mm) and 25% (32 mm) de-alignment of primary with respect to secondary was
observed on the Propulsion force and input Power for V/f ratio 9 with airgap of 7mm

8. Results of De-alignment test
Up to 25% de-alignment the propulsion force developed is quite healthy compared
to reference .
The Input Power Variation is small with the lateral shift. So we can go up to 25% de-
alignment for practical application like traction.
For traction application the turns will be slightly affecting the LIM but give a good
performance inside the tolerance limit.

12. Results of Break test
As the Electrical circuit break length increases the magnitude of propulsion force
get reduced sharply. This behavior can be accounted for reduced eddy current due
to absence of electrical circuit. This weakens the strength of poles developed on
secondary.
The reductions in propulsion force due to break in magnetic circuit is not as
dominant as due to break in the electrical circuit.
Large break in electrical circuit is not desirable as it reduces the propulsion force
greatly.
Large breaks in magnetic circuit (up to 30% of length of LIM primary) can be
allowed wherever required
Even 10 % of simultaneous break in the Aluminium and Mild-steel cause large
reduction in the propulsion force

13. Voltage Control Test
Voltage control tests were carried out at constant frequency of 50 Hz.
The voltage was varied from 207 volt to 500 volt using the VVVF drive.
Data were obtained for three different air gaps of 9mm, 7mm and 5mm
Propulsion Force variation with voltage for different airgap
Input Power variation with voltage for different airgap

14. Results of Voltage Control Test
If the starting will be done at rated voltage or if high voltage will be applied
to obtain large starting torque, it will cause saturation of mild steel core of
LIM.
So, constant V/f control gives a better solution where starting can be done
at lower frequency and hence higher starting torque can be obtained at
wide range of initial speed.

15. CONCLUSION
This paper has investigated Static performance characteristics of a single sided LIM

condition.
Experiments were performed by developing a static test bed on the testing track.
The results obtained from the test supports the advantages of application of LIM in
modern metros.
It will help in carrying out the further investigation in starting of LIM based drive.
