This document discusses hysteresis motors. It describes the construction of hysteresis motors, which have a smooth cylinder rotor like induction motors but without windings. It explains that hysteresis motors operate based on the principle of a rotating stator flux inducing poles in the rotor that lag behind, causing it to accelerate to synchronous speed. The document also outlines the torque-speed characteristic of hysteresis motors, noting they can develop constant hysteresis torque independent of speed and frequency in their normal operating range.
