Torque and Speed Equations of dc motor

Before analysing the various characteristics of motors, let us revise the torque and speed equations are applied to various types of motors.
...              T α Φ Ia from torque equation.
       This is because, 0.159(PZ)/A is a constant for a given motor.
       Now  Φ is the flux produced by the field winding and is proportional to the current passing through the field winding.
                   Φ α Ifield
       But for various types of motors, current through the field winding is different. Accordingly torque equation must be modified.
       For a d.c. shunt motor,  Ish is constant as long as supply voltage is constant. Hence Φ flux is also constant.
...              T α  Ia                 for shunt motors
       For a d.c. series motor,   Ise  is same as  Ia. Hence flux Φ is proportional to the armature current Ia.
...               T  α  Ia   α  Ia2                   for series motors.
Similarly as Eb   = (ΦPNZ)(60A), we can write the speed equation as,
                   Eb  α    Φ N 
...                 N  α  Eb/Φ
       But   V =  Eb   +  Ia  Ra          neglecting brush drop
...             Eb   = V -  Ia  Ra
...     Speed equation becomes,
                N   α (V-Ia  Ra)/Φ
       So for shunt motor as flux is constant,
...              N   α   V - Ia  Ra
       While for series motor, flux Φ is proportional to Ia.
       These relations play an important role in understanding the various characteristics of different types of motors.
1.1 Speed Regulation
       The speed regulation for a d.c. motor is defined as the ratio of change in speed corresponding to no load and full load condition to speed corresponding to full load.
       Mathematically it is expressed as,

Condition for Maximum Power Developed In Synchronous Motor

The value of δ for which the mechanical power developed is maximum can be obtained as, Note : Thus when R a is negligible, θ = 90 o for maximum power developed. The corresponding torque is called pull out torque. 1.1 The Value of Maximum Power Developed        The value of maximum power developed can be obtained by substituting θ = δ in the equation of P m .        When R a is negligible,     θ = 90 o  and cos (θ) = 0 hence, . . .               R a = Z s cosθ   and X s = Z s sinθ        Substituting   cosθ = R a /Z s in equation (6b) we get,         Solving the above quadratic in E b we get,        As E b is completely dependent on excitation, the equation (8) gives the excitation limits for any load for a synchronous motor. If the excitation exceeds this limit, the motor falls out of step. 1.2 Condition for Excitation When Motor Develops ( P m ) R max        Let us find excitation condition for maximum power developed. The excitation

Effect of Slip on Rotor Parameters : Part2

Effect of Slip on Rotor Parameters 2. Effect of Slip on Magnitude of Rotor Induced E.M.F        We have seen that when rotor is standstill, s  = 1, relative speed is maximum and maximum e.m.f. gets induced in the rotor. Let this e.m.f. be,                 E 2 = Rotor induced e.m.f. per phase on standstill condition         As rotor gains speed, the relative speed between rotor and rotating magnetic field decreases and hence induced e.m.f. in rotor also decreases as it is proportional to the relative speed N s - N. Let this e.m.f. be,                E 2r = Rotor induced e.m.f. per phase in running condition  Now        E 2r α N s while E 2r α N s - N        Dividing the two proportionality equations,               E 2r /E 2 = ( N s - N)/N s    but (N s - N)/N = slip s               E 2r /E 2 = s               E 2r = s E 2        The magnitude of the induced e.m.f in the rotor also reduces by slip times the
