Hello
I know a bit about engines.
In my opinion:
Inverter driven induction motor = Inverter motor.
Yet another issue is the motors in LG washing machines ...
There is the TYPICAL Direct Drive. As for the motor type, it is a classic BLDC motor, which is also controlled by an inverter.
The question arises: What is the difference between an inverter motor and a BLDC motor?
The BLDC motor has a permanent magnet rotor and is a synchronous machine, while inverter (inverter driven induction) motors have squirrel cage rotors and are asynchronous.
This does not mean, however, that BLDC motors are only Direct Drive type. It is enough for the motor that moves the drum through the belt to have permanent magnets on the rotor and becomes a BLDC motor.
The method of controlling such motors is quite similar, only in BLDC motors, the voltage induced on the coil, which is de-energized in a given commutation, can be used to check the current position of the rotor.
Greetings,
Charles
