What are the advantages of star-delta starter with
induction motor?

Answer Posted / jishnu mukherjee

The main advantage is of-course the issue of starting current.In this case the starting line current is reduced to one third.Most importantly, starting torque is also reduced by the same amount.So pumps,motor-generator sets, where starting torque is not required to be high can take the advantage of star-delta starting.
But the problem is, this method is not adoptable for the motors which have high voltage rating(generally above 3kv).The reason behind:such motors are usually star-connected.We must have delta connection in the induction motor.

We are preparing another project which involves Waste heat recovery from a 1 MW GE Engine. The Engine in particular gives out flue gas at 487Deg C with a flow rate of 5650 kg/hour and this can be cooled to 180 Deg C. This gives a thermal output of ~ 594 KW that is available for input to VAM via heat exchanger / boiler. Additionally 581 KW will be available from engine jacket water (temperature profile 80/ 80 Deg C and a flow rate of 50m3/hr) Our estimation is that 300 TR of cooling is possible with a suitable VAM machine(s). Please advise what is the most suitable arrangement with maximum TR and min Capital expenditure. plz reply me as early as possible
