What does VVVF stands for in VVVF drive ?
How does it differ from VVF drive?

Answer Posted / rajashekhara p

variable voltage and variable frequency drives are purely
works on below formula

Ns=120F/P

Since synchronous speed is mainly depends on motor
poles,frequency and it's applied voltage but there is also
another factor which affecting to above formula that is slip
for example.

A 4-pole motor that is connected directly to 60 Hz utility
(mains) power would have a synchronous speed of 1,800 rpm:


If the motor is an induction motor, the operating speed at
full load will be about 1,750 rpm. This rotor rpm is
slightly less than synchronous speed since the method of
torque production for an induction motor is by the presence
of slip (a difference in synchronous speed and actual
mechanical speed). Otherwise there would be no induction
and therefore no torque produced. On the other hand, if the
motor is a synchronous speed, the rotor speed can only
match the synchronous speed independent of load.

If the motor is connected to a speed controller that
provides power at 50 Hz, the synchronous speed would be
1,500 rpm:

hence we can conclude this as vvvf is a variable voltage
and variable frequency.

54 Comments Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game. Given the expression N = 38 + X*(Y – Z) where X, Y and Z are variables representing single digits (0 to 9), Alok would like to maximize N while Bhanu would like to minimize it. Towards this end, Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu substitutes this for a variable of her choice (X, Y or Z). Alok then chooses the next value and Bhanu, the variable to substitute the value. Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining variable. Assuming both play to their optimal strategies, the value of N at the end of the game would be?
