Steady State Stability

• Equilibrium speed of a motor load system is obtained when themotor torque, Te equals the load torque T l.

Stable state of equilibrium point

– The equilibrium point is termed as stable, if the operating point isrestored after a small departure from it due to disturbance in themotor or load.

Unstable state of equilibrium point

– The equilibrium point is termed as stable, if the operating pointwill not be restored after a small departure from it due todisturbance in the motor or load.

• Single phase (low power) and three phase (high and veryhigh power) supply can be used

• The line current is unidirectional, but the output voltage canreverse polarity. Hence 2- quadrant operation is inherentlypossible.

• 4-quadrant is also possible using “two sets” of controlledrectifiers.
