from 15 min to 2 hr, depending on the size), the horsepower rating required will usually not be less than this constant value, regardless of other parts of the cycle.
If the driven machine is to operate at more than one speed, the horsepower re quired at each speed must be determined..
4. Torqite. The torque required to operate the driven machine at every moment
between initial breakaway and heal shutdown is important in determining the type
of motor. .A torque-speed curve is desirable and sometimes essential.
x
The starting torque or breakaway torque required by the driven machine may be
as low as 10 percent, as in the case of medium-sized centrifugal pumps, or as high as 225 to 250 percent of full-load torque, as in the case of a loaded reciprocating two-
cylinder compressor. The breakaway torque may vary greatly at different times
because of frequency of start, temperature changes, type and amount of lubricant, etc. The motor torque available at the shaft must be well above the torque requirea
by the driven machine, taking into consideration these variables as well as the pos sibility of low voltage and the type of starter used.
The torque required after breakaway for acceleration to full speed varies with dif ferent driven machines, remaining at a rather high value throughout acceleration for such-machines as loaded compressors and plunger pumps. The torque delivered by the motor must at all points, up to full speed, be in excess of the torque required
