WAT IS MEANT BY COLD AND HOT START OF A MOTOR?? HOW DOES IT AFFECT A MOTOR'S PERFORMANCE??..

Answer / avd

Cold start : Starting the motor when it is cold. Means when
motor stoped and starts after long delay, considered as
cold start. Techanically if motor thermal containt is less
than 50%, it is considered cold.

Hot start : When motor is hot and you give start. Means
stoping the motor and immediately restarting is hot
start.Techanically if the motor thermal containt is more
than 50% and a start is given to motor, it is a hot start.

Effect : Any start of motor will result in increase of
thermal containt. If motor is hot (hot start given) than
motor thermal containt further increase hence there will be
detorioration in the insulation and thus life of motor.

Answer / sophia

Hot start and cold start refer to the temperature of the motor when starting. Hot start is usually a restart after coasting to a stop. Cold start is an initial start, after not having run for a relatively long period of time. This is important because there is usually a limit on the number of hot starts that are allowed in a certain period of time. This is due to the fact that these motors pull more current starting than when they run, and if you start them too often they can overheat.

Answer / mrudang

cold start its first start of motor
when the first time u start the motor

hot start of a motor means
second start of motor , after first start of motor u stop
the motor and again u start the motor then motor condition
is hot thats why it is known is hot start

prformance ???
when u start at cold condition , motor takes more starting
current for getting in synchronus condition

and in hot condition motor is already hot thats y it's
starting easy then cold
