I don't think the approach will work, because although of course plenty of AC motors do it very much like this, they are designed for that...I think the phase angles you have with the genny will not let it work that way.
Another problem is how would you get it to start? When it is first turned on, there will be a rapidly changing field that the rotor will see, not enough torque to get it moving, and lots of excess current. Of course you could change the impedance for starting. Like add a large cap. But I am not a motor expert, for sure, maybe it would work after all. I kinda doubt it though. -Ken _______________________________________________ Liveaboard mailing list [email protected] To adjust your membership settings over the web http://www.liveaboardnow.org/mailman/listinfo/liveaboard To subscribe send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] The archives are at http://www.liveaboardnow.org/pipermail/liveaboard/ To search the archives http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] The Mailman Users Guide can be found here http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-member/index.html
