Armature Control Method: The main requirement of this Armature Control Method scheme is a variable voltage supply to the armature whose current rating must be somewhat larger than that of the motor. It is superior…
Field Control Method of DC Shunt Motor: The Field Control Method of DC Shunt Motor are in general much more adaptable speed drives than ac motors which are associated with a constant-speed rotating field. Indeed…
Starting of DC Motors: At the time of Starting of DC Motors (n = 0), the induced emf of a motor is zero such that the current drawn from rated voltage supply would be for…
Speed Torque Characteristics of DC Series Motor: To find the Speed Torque Characteristics of DC Series Motor, let us analysis the figure 7.43 shows the connection diagram of a dc series motor. The speed for…
Characteristics of DC Motors | Characteristics of Shunt Motor: The power of the dc motor lies in its versatility and ease with which a variety of speed-torque characteristics can be obtained, and the wide range…
External Characteristics of Compound Generator: External Characteristics of Compound Generator - The causes of voltage drop in the terminal voltage from no-load to full-load in a shunt generator can be partially/fully/over-compensated by use of an…
External Characteristics of DC Shunt Generator: The External Characteristics of DC Shunt Generator can be predetermined from a knowledge of the OCC and armature and field resistances (which can be determined by simple dc test),…
Characteristics of Separately Excited DC Generator: With the advent of silicon-controlled rectifiers, the importance of the dc machine as a generator has considerably reduced as SCRs can be employed to draw dc power from standard…
Self Excited DC Generator: Rather than arranging a separate dc source for excitation purposes, practical generators are always excited from their own armature terminals, this method of excitation being known as Self Excitation. A Self…
Magnetization Characteristics of DC Generator: The emf and torque equations, and power balance has been considered so far. The consideration of the Magnetization Characteristics in this section will set the stage for determining the performance…
