How to extract maximum torque in a single phase repulsion type motor?

Right Answer is:

The angle between brush axis and stator field axis must be equal to 45°.

SOLUTION

The torque in the repulsion motor is given as

Te = 0.5k IsNs2 sin 2α

Where Is and Ns are the stator filed-current and an effective number of stator turns.

α is the angle between the brush axis or rotor field axis to the stator field axis.

Since a constant stator field motor extract maximum torque when

sin 2α = 1 ⇒ 2α = 90°  ⇒ α = 45°
