Hysteresis Motors
Features:
• Hysteresis motor is a special type of synchronous motor.
• The motor behavior is similar to that of a conventional synchronous motor but
there is no excitation winding on the rotor.
• Due to the absence of slots and teeth on the rotor, the operation of this motor is
smooth and quiet.
• The hysteresis motor can be considered as a self-starting synchronous motor.
• It operates both in single and three phase supply.
• These characteristics make it ideal for many industrial applications, such as in
electronic and medical equipment

Construction of Hysteresis Motor:
1- The stator
• The stator of the hysteresis motor produces a rotating magnetic field and is
• Thus, the stator of the motor is connected either to single supply or to the three
• The three phase motor produces more uniform rotating field as compared to that

2- The Rotor
• The rotor of the hysteresis motor consists of the core of aluminum or some other non-
magnetic material (paramagnetic material) which carries a layer of special magnetic
material (hard ferromagnetic material).
• The rotor is made up of hard iron material ( hard ferromagnetic material) with a high
degree of magnetic hysteresis like cobalt steel.
• Hysteresis loss becomes high due to large area of hysteresis loop.
• Rotor does not carry any winding or teeth.

Working Principle
We can say:-
• Starting behavior of a hysteresis motor is like induction motor and running
behavior is the same as synchronous motor.
• Rotation of any motor produced due to attraction and repulsion between
stator pole and rotor pole
• When the speed of the rotor reaches near about the synchronous speed, the stator pulls
the rotor into synchronism.
• At the condition of synchronism, the relative motion between stator field and rotor field
vanishes. So there is no further induction phenomenon to continue. Hence no eddy
current to generate in the rotor. Thus the torque due to eddy-currents equal zero.
11
• At the time of rotor’s rotation at the synchronous speed, rotating magnetic field
flux in the stator produces poles on the rotor by induction; they are named as north
(N) and south (S) poles. Thus rotor behaves as a permanent magnet having rotor
axis as the induced magnetic axis.
• For high residual magnetism or retentivity the rotor pole strength remains
sustainable or unchanged.
• Again higher the retentivity, higher is the hysteresis torque and the hysteresis
torque is independent of the rotor speed always.
• The high retentivity enables the continuous magnetic locking between stator and
rotor and thus the motor rotates at synchronous speed.
12
• In lower load torque, the needed work done to rotate the rotor is equal to
maximum magnetizing work of hysteresis phenomenon available already in the
rotor. So induced magnetic pole axis always follows the rotating magnetic field
axis of stator without any lag angle.
• But when the load torque is sufficiently high, the maximum magnetizing work
in rotor by hysteresis phenomenon cannot cover the work done needed to rotate the
rotor. So the induced magnetic field axis or rotor pole axis lags the rotating
magnetic field axis of the stator at an angle δh.
• Hence the rotor pole axis tries to catch up the stator magnetic field axis.
• If the load torque is increased, this lagging angle will be increased up to δmax
before dropping below the synchronous condition.
13
• As there is no slip at steady state running condition, only hysteresis torque is
present to keep the rotor running at synchronous speed and it behaves like a
synchronous motor.
14
• The torque is almost constant from starting to running condition.
• At starting condition, the starting torque is the eddy current torque along with the
hysteresis torque.
• But in the running condition net running torque means only the hysteresis torque.
• Deviation between ideal characteristic and practical is due to presence of harmonics
