What is field current in induction motor?

The current creates an electric field, which interacts with the electric field or the magnetic reluctance of the rotor, which is called the field current.

How to Calculate Field Current?

Field Current calculator uses field_current = Voltage/Shunt field resistance to calculate the Field Current, The field current is the current flowing through the windings in the non-moving part of the motor (which is called the stator, a word derived from “stationary”, or not movable). Field Current and is denoted by If symbol.

How to calculate Field Current using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Field Current, enter Voltage (V) and Shunt field resistance (Rsh) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Field Current calculation can be explained with given input values -> 20 = 120/6.

FAQ

What is Field Current?

The field current is the current flowing through the windings in the non-moving part of the motor (which is called the stator, a word derived from “stationary”, or not movable) and is represented as If = V/Rsh or field_current = Voltage/Shunt field resistance. Voltage, electric potential difference, electric pressure, or electric tension is the difference in electric potential between two points, which is defined as the work needed per unit of charge to move a test charge between the two points and Shunt field resistance is a device that creates a path that has a low resistance for electric current to flow.

How to calculate Field Current?

The field current is the current flowing through the windings in the non-moving part of the motor (which is called the stator, a word derived from “stationary”, or not movable) is calculated using field_current = Voltage/Shunt field resistance. To calculate Field Current, you need Voltage (V) and Shunt field resistance (Rsh). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Voltage and Shunt field resistance and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.

How many ways are there to calculate Field Current?

In this formula, Field Current uses Voltage and Shunt field resistance. We can use 10 other way(s) to calculate the same, which is/are as follows -

electromotive_force = Voltage-(Armature Current*Armature resistance)
shunt_field_current = Voltage/Shunt field resistance
armature_current = Field Current+Load current
voltage = Induced voltage-(Armature Current*Armature resistance)
field_current = Voltage/Shunt field resistance
constant_of_the_dc_machine = Number of conductors*Number of pole/2*pi*Number of parallel paths
power = Angular Speed*Torque
power = Induced voltage*Armature Current
angular_speed = (2*pi*Motor Speed)/60
voltage = Induced voltage-(Armature Current*(Armature resistance+Series field resistance))
