Summary of a DC Machine
Basically consists of

1. An electromagnetic or permanent magnetic structure called field which is static 2. An Armature which rotates The Field produces a magnetic medium The Armature produces voltage and torque under the action of the magnetic field

Voltage and Torque developed in a DC Machine


Induced EMF, EA = Km (volts)
Developed Torque, Tdev = KIA (Newton-meter or Nm) where m is the speed of the armature in rad/sec., is the flux per pole in weber (Wb) IA is the Armature current K is the machine constant

Power Developed in a DC Machine


Neglecting Losses,
Input mechanical power to dc generator
= Tdev m= KIAm =EA IA = Output electric power to load Input electrical power to dc motor = EA IA= K m IA = Tdev m = Output mechanical power to load

Equivalence of motor and generator

In every generator there is a motor (Tdev opposes Tpm) In every motor there is a generator (EA opposes VT)
