Pump(and fan) Affinity Rule 100% Let’s begin by examining the effect 90% ECD eff'y of reduced speed on centrifugal 80% fan and pump loads. In this “ideal Pump load affinity law” instance, the load is Slip loss 70% reduced in proportion to the cube of the speed reduction. This load 60% reduction is usually the reason for choosing variable speed in the first 50% place. When this efficiency is applied to this reduced load, the 40% LOSSES in the eddy current drive 30% are as shown. 20% 10% Note that maximum slip loss is Slip Loss at 33% slip, at which it is only 0% 16.2% of the load input. 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% 100% Percent Speed
Efficiency at Practical Speed 100% 90% In fact, most pumps don’t behave ECD eff'y 80% exactly according to the ideal affinity curve. Many systems Pump load 70% have static head or the process requires a minimum flow that limit 60% ECD loss the speed reduction of the pump. If we look at an example 50% where there is static head in the 40% system as shown here, the pump only achieves flow at 80% pump 30% speed. 20% At this point, the discharge valve can be opened, and the pump 10% will operate only between the 0% zero flow point and maximum 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% 100% flow, usually at “full speed”. Percent Speed
Efficiency at Practical Speed 100% 90% Evaluation is inconsequential at ECD eff'y 80% speeds below the zero flow point, so let’s only consider the Pump load 70% performance from 80% to 100% speed. ECD loss 60% 50% 40% The next slide shows this same 30% data with the horizontal axis expanded from 0 to 100% 20% flow… 10% 0% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% 100% Percent Flow 0% 100%
Efficiency vs. Losses 100% 90% Here’s the same data, displayed on an expanded horizontal axis, 80% which is renamed “Percent Flow”. 70% Between zero and full flow, the 60% percent flow is approximately proportional to speed. By 50% ECD eff'y expanding the axis, we get a 40% closer look at the comparative Pump load losses. 30% ECD loss 20% Remember that the power 10% company bills for Kilowatt- hours , not “efficiency”. 0% % Flow 0% 25% 50% 75% 100% 0% 25% 50% 75% 100% 80% 85% 90% 95% 100% % Speed

Ambient Air Cooling • Like the motors that drive them, the variable speed electro ‐ magnetic drive unit is easily cooled with ambient air. • Losses are approximately the same as those for the motor. • Typical locations provide an adequate volume of air to absorb and dissipate the heat load. • No air conditioning required to maintain safe operating temperature. • Standard design is for 40 o C ambient (same as for Warm Air Out motor). • Higher ambient designs available. Cool Air In
IEEE 519 ‐ 1992“Recommended Practice” • Motor runs across line at full voltage & frequency. • No electronic conversion of the load power is involved. • The exciter ‐ controller operates at approximately 1% of the pump load. • Harmonic distortion for the system is virtually zero. • IEEE ‐ 519 compliance is assured without the need for analysis nor mitigation .
No Negative Effect on Motors ● No induced harmonic voltage distortion ● No high frequency induced rotor and stator heating, shortening standard motor life ● Can use standard motors or safely retrofit existing motors without fear of damage or shortened life. ● No common ‐ mode voltage to threaten neutral insulation.
