I am studying variable frequency drives.
I figured out how to set the basic parameters for a particular VFD to control a 3 phase motor (name voltage, amps, frequency, RPMs, etc.). Basically I can make it move forward and in reverse, and wire it up to external controls.
My question is about torque. There are a lot of settings regarding torque and I have no idea what to set them for or why. Can anyone suggest some reliable reading or resources to help me cut down on research time? I get one week of access to this equipment and I want to make the most of it.
I know how to change the settings, so I am more interested in the math and physics used to calculate a desired value for a setting (and the purpose behind the value).
