The torque in a hysteresis motor is produced due to the ______  induced in the rotor.

The torque in a hysteresis motor is produced due to the ______  induced in the rotor.

Right Answer is:

Hysteresis current

SOLUTION

The torque in a hysteresis motor is produced due to the hysteresis current induced in the rotor by the action of the rotating flux of the stator windings.  A hysteresis motor works on the principle of hysteresis losses. Hysteresis loss is caused by the magnetization and demagnetization of the core as current flows in the forward and reverse directions.
