When three-phase supply is given to a three-phase wound stator of an induction motor, a revolving field is set up in the stator. This field (flux) is also set up in the air between stator and rotor, which links with rotor conductors and emf is induced in them by mutual induction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"para-267\">To set up the mutual flux, induction motor draws magnetizing current (<em>I<\/em><sub>mag<\/sub>) from the mains which lags behind the voltage by 90\u00b0 as shown in\u00a0Figure 12.16(b)\u00a0and\u00a012.17(b). The magnitude of this current is quite large because of high reluctance of the air gap between stator and rotor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"para-268\">The power factor of the induction motor is minimum at no-load as shown in\u00a0Figure 12.16(b)\u00a0since the magnetizing current has its dominating effect. However, the power factor increases with increase in load on the induction motor and is maximum at full-load as shown in\u00a0Figure 12.17(b). Therefore, it is advised to operate the induction at full-load.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"para-269\">Therefore, because of air gap, induction motor draws large magnetizing current and operates at low lagging power factor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When load is applied on the induction motor, its speed decreases slightly and slip increases.
