For what purpose voltage is change with frequency in V/F speed control of induction motor?
Torque constant
Speed constant
Both
None
Torque constant
The correct answer is Torque constant because in V/F speed control of induction motor, the voltage is changed with frequency to maintain a constant torque. This method is used to achieve a constant torque during speed variation. The torque constant is directly related to the voltage and frequency of the supply.
The correct answer is Torque constant because in V/F speed control of induction motor, the voltage is changed with frequency to maintain a constant torque. This method is used to achieve a constant torque during speed variation. The torque constant is directly related to the voltage and frequency of the supply.
The working principle of V/F speed control is based on the fact that the torque developed by an induction motor is proportional to the ratio of voltage to frequency. By maintaining this ratio constant, the torque developed remains constant, thus providing a means of speed control. This method involves changing the voltage in proportion to the change in frequency to maintain a constant torque.

| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Also Known As | Voltage to frequency ratio control |
| Connected Between / Location | Between the motor and the variable frequency drive |
| Types | Open-loop and closed-loop V/F control |
| Standard Values / Years / Dates | IEC and NEMA standards apply |
| Wrong Options Explained | Option B, Speed constant, is not directly related to V/F control; Option C, Both, is incorrect because only torque constant is relevant; Option D, None, is incorrect because V/F control does have a purpose related to torque constant |
A is correct โ The voltage is changed with frequency in V/F speed control to maintain a constant torque.
This concept is often tested along with other speed control methods, such as scalar control and vector control, so be sure to review the differences and applications of each method.
