Analysis of Phasor Diagram Of Synchronous Motor

Consider a phasor diagram with normal excitation i.e. such a current through field winding which will produce flux that will adjust magnitude of Ebph same as Vph.
       Let δ be the load angle corresponding to the load on the motor. So from the exact opposing position of Ebph with respect to Vph. Ebph gets displaced by angle δ.
       Vector difference of Ebph and Vph, gives the phasor which represents Ia Zs, called ERph.
       Now  Zs = Ra + j Xs  Ω
       where Ra = Resistance of stator per phase
                 Xs  = Synchronous reactance of stator per phase
       i.e.        θ = tan-1 (Xs/Ra)
       and      | Zs | = √(Ra2 + Rs2) Ω
       This angle 'θ' is called internal machine angle or an impedance angle.
       The significant of 'θ' is that it tells us that phasor Iaph lags behind ERph i.e. Ia Zs by angle θ. Current always lags in case of inductive impedance with respect to voltage drop across that impedance. So phasor Iaph  can be shown lagging with respect to ERph by angle θ. Practically Ra is very small compared to Xa and hence θ tends to 90o.
       Note : The power factor at which motor is running, gets decided by the angle between Vph and Iaph shown. This angle is denoted as Φ and called power factor angle.

       and cos Φ = Power factor at which motor is working.
       The nature of this p.f. is lagging if Iaph lags Vph by angle Φ. While it is leading if Iaph leads Vph by angle Φ. Phasor diagram indicating all the details is shown in the Fig.1.

Practical Commutation

The e.m.f. induced in each coil of armature is alternating in nature. If load is connected, the current flowing will also be alternating. But the flow of current in a d.c. generator must be undirectional. This can be achieved by the use of commutator. When the armature conductors are under the influence of one pole they carry current in one direction whereas the current is reversed when the conductors are under the influence of other pole. This reversal of current takes place along the magnetic neutral axis. Fig. 1 Note : The reversal of current is likely to take place in short interval when a coil is short circuited by a brush so that transfer of current from one direction to other is carried out without any sparking. This process is called commutation.        Thus a process by which current in the short circuited coil is reversed while it crosses the MNA is called commutation. The time during which the coil remains short circuited is known as...

Demagnetising and Cross Magnetizing Conductors

The conductors which are responsible for producing demagnetizing and distortion effects are shown in the Fig.1. Fig. 1        The brushes are lying along the new position of MNA which is at angle θ  from GNA. The conductors in the region AOC = BOD = 2θ  at the top and bottom of the armature are carrying current in such a direction as to send the flux in armature from right to left. Thus these conductors are in direct opposition to main field and called demagnetizing armature conductors.         The remaining armature conductors which are lying in the region AOD and BOC carry current in such a direction as to send the flux pointing vertically downwards i.e. at right angles to the main field flux. Hence these conductors are called cross magnetizing armature conductors which will cause distortion in main field flux.        These conductors are shown in the Fig. 2 Fig. 2  ...

Armature Voltage Control Method or Rheostatic Control of dc motor

Speed Control of D.C. Shunt Motor (Part2)  2. Armature Voltage Control Method or Rheostatic Control        The speed is directly proportional to the voltage applied across the armature. As the supply voltage is normally constant, the voltage across the armature can be controlled by adding a variable resistance in series with the armature as shown in the Fig. 1. Fig. 1 Rheostat control of shunt motor        The field winding is excited by the normal voltage hence I sh is rated and constant in this method. Initially the reheostat position is minimum and rated voltage gets applied across the armature. So speed is also rated. For a given load, armature current is fixed. So when extra resistance is added in the armature circuit, I a remains same and there is voltage drop across the resistance added ( I a R). Hence voltage across the armature decreases, decreasing the speed below normal value. By varyi...
