Armature Reaction
In a d.c. generator:
The purpose of field winding is to produce
magnetic field (called main flux).
And the purpose of armature winding is to carry
armature current.

Armature Reaction
The phenomenon of armature
reaction in a d.c. generator is
shown in Fig.

Armature Reaction
By superimposing 1
and 2, we obtain the
resulting flux 3 as
shown in Fig.
It is clear that flux

pole tip (point B) is
increased while at the

Geometrical and Magnetic
Neutral Axes
The magnetic neutral axis (M. N. A.) is the axis
drawn perpendicular to the mean direction of the
flux passing through the centre of the armature.
Clearly, no e.m.f. is produced in the armature
conductors along this axis because then they cut
no flux.

Open Circuit Characteristic
(O.C.C.)
61
The data for O.C.C. curve are obtained
experimentally by operating the generator at no
load and constant speed and
recording the change in terminal voltage as the
field current is varied
MZS 62
FKEE, UMP
The O.C.C. for a d.c. generator is determined as
follows. The field winding of
the d.c. generator (series or shunt) is
disconnected from the machine and is
separately excited from an external d.c. source as
shown in Fig. (3.1) (ii). The
generator is run at fixed speed (i.e., normal
speed). The field current (If) is
increased from zero in steps and the
corresponding values ofMZSgenerated e.m.f. 63

FKEE, UMP
The following points may be noted from O.C.C.:
(i) When the field current is zero, there is some
generated e.m.f. OA. This is
due to the residual magnetism in the field poles.
(ii) Over a fairly wide range of field current (upto
point B in the curve), the
curve is linear. It is because in this range,
reluctance of iron is negligible as
compared with that of air gap. The air gap
reluctance is constantFKEE,

(iii) After point B on the curve, the reluctance of
iron also comes into picture. It
is because at higher flux densities, mr for iron
decreases and reluctance ofiron is no longer
negligible. Consequently, the curve deviates from
linear
relationship.
(iv) After point C on the curve, the magnetic
saturation of poles begins and E0
tends to level off. MZS 66

The O.C.C. of a separately excited generator is
determined in a manner described in Sec. (3.2).
Fig.
(3.2) shows the variation of generated e.m f. on no
load with field current for various fixed speeds.
Note
that if the value of constant speed is increased,
the
steepness of the curve also increases. When the

(i) O.C.C.
Curve 1 shows the open circuit characteristic
(O.C.C.) of a series generator. It
can be obtained experimentally by disconnecting
the field winding from the
machine and exciting it from a separate d.c.
source as discussed in Sec. (3.2).

(ii) Internal characteristic
Curve 2 shows the total or internal characteristic
of a series generator. It gives
the relation between the generated e.m.f. E. on
load and armature current. Due to
armature reaction, the flux in the machine will be
less than the flux at no load.
Hence, e.m.f. E generated under load conditions
will be less than the e.m.f. E0
generated under no load MZSconditions.

External characteristic
Curve 3 shows the external characteristic of a
series generator. It gives the
relation between terminal voltage and load current
IL:.
V = E - Ia(Ra + Rse)
Therefore, external characteristic curve will lie
below internal characteristic
curve by an amount equal to ohmic drop [i.e.,
Ia(Ra + Rse)] in the machine
