Motor system

CIlIss HBl In a Class IlBl cabinet, supply blowers draw room air (plus a portion of the cabinet s recirculated air) through the from grill and then through the supply HEPA filters located immediately below the work surface (Fig. 10,96). This particulate-free air flows upward through a plenum ai each side of the cabinet and then downward to the work area through a back-pressure plate. In some cabinets an additional supply HEPA filter removes particulate generated by the b [Pg.987]

Fan motor systems The methods by which an electric motor drives a fan or pump system. 

Most induction ac motors are fixed-speed. However, a large number of motor applications would benefit if the motor speed could be adjusted to match process requirements. Motor speed controls are the devices which, when properly applied, can tap most of the potential energy savings in motor systems. Motor speed controls are particularly attractive in applications where there is variable fluid flow. In many centrifugal pump, fan, and compressor applications mechanical power grows roughly with the cube of the fluid flow. To move 80 percent of the nominal flow only half of the power is required. Centrifugal loads are therefore excellent candidates for motor speed control. Other loads that may benefit from the use of motor speed controls include conveyers, traction drives, winders, machine tools and robotics. 

Conventional methods of flow control used inefficient throttling devices such as valves, dampers, and vanes. These devices, although they have a low initial cost, introduce unacceptable running costs due to their inefficiency. Several speed control technologies can be used to improve motor system operation.

There has been not only gi owth m the total number of electric motors (more standard appliances in use), but also a proliferation in their use for new, novel applications. Both trends will continue to increase demand for the electricity to run electric motors. In the United States, electric motors arc responsible for consuming more than half of all electricity, and for the industrial sector alone, close to two-thirds. Since the cost of the electricity to power these motors is enormous (estimated at more than 90 billion a year), research is focused on finding ways to increase the energy efficiency of motors and motor systems.

Central nervous system maturation progresses in a cephalo-caudal manner, allowing for differentiation of fine motor movements, as those seen in the pincer grasp by 9 months (Gesell et al. 1954). Fair evaluation of the fine motor system was not possible until the last quarter of the first year.

The extrapyramidal motor system controls muscle movement through a system of pathways and nerve tracts that connect the cerebral cortex, basal ganglia, thalamus, cerebellum, reticular formation, and spinal neurons. Patients with PD lose dopamine neurons in the substantia nigra, which is located in the midbrain within the brain stem. The substantia...

Muscarinic and dopaminergic pathways in the CNS interact in control of numerous pathways implicated in diseases, especially those controlling involuntary motor systems. Muscarinic effects on dopamine release are mediated in several ways via different mAChR subtypes. Thus mAChR facilitation of DA release appears to involve M4 receptors on GABA projection neurons to the striatum, while M3 receptors on striatal DA neurons are predicted to inhibit striatal DA release [12],...
