INTRO: Hi guys good morning, and to our prof…I am (name) Together with my report
partner (Name of Partner)
AFTER THE REPORTERS INTRO. @SLIDE#1to2: we are here to discuss about SERIES DC MOTOR.
REPORTER#2S LINE: In this session, we will discuss about what is a Series DC motor,
but first let’s have recap.
REPORTERS LINE: (read Fast/ in timing) In a DC motor, the input electrical energy is
the direct current which is transformed into the mechanical rotation.
(During the RECAP Slides) REPORTERS LINE: as we can see, we have also its parts that is
already discussed (or to be discussed) by the Reporter.
Self-Excited DC Motor
Separately Excited DC Motor
Now, let us discuss one of the various types of DC Motor Which is the SELF EXCITED DC
MOTOR in detail, where our topic belongs one of its types.
DIAGRAM Slide#16
REPORTERS LINE: In a series-wound DC motor, the field winding is connected in series
with the armature winding as shown in the figure.
REPORTERS LINE: Since the series field winding carries the whole armature current.
Therefore, the series field winding has a small number of turns of thick wire and
should possess a low resistance.
What is a Series Wound DC Motor? SLIDE #19
REPORTERS LINE: It seems impossible to live in a world without electric devices.
Everything used in daily life, household appliances, car, even the wall outlets that
give us continual electric current – would not be here if it weren’t for these mainly
useful devices.
REPORTERS LINE: Thanks to the improvements of the 19th century and beyond, we can
transform electricity into beneficial mechanical motion to implement all formats of
amazing tasks. This post will focus on DC motors, one of the main electric motor
forms and how it still benefits us in our applications.
REPORTERS LINE: We will particularly investigate the series wound DC motor (sometimes
introduced as the “series DC motor”), which is similar in almost all features to
other DC motor types but has some important unique characteristics.
This post aims to help viewers know the series wound motors, how it performs and what
kinds of applications benefit from this rugged electric device.
REPORTERS LINE: Now let us see the actual Lab test to our Diagram.
REPORTERS LINE: Note that DC series devices have more features than what is
explained in this section, and it only discusses the central values that must
be known in most applications.
Rated (Nominal) Voltage
The rated voltage explains the DC power source required to operate the motor.
This is the minimum amount to be applied, but a slightly greater value is also
possible.
REPORTERS LINE: Note that employing a larger voltage may result in motor
burnout/damage based on the high current in the field coil, so caution must be
taken when exceeding the nominal voltage.
Brush Life
These devices use mechanical commutation to use the power supply in the
armature coils; therefore, the carbon brushes which are the combining sections
for this commutation will finally wear down and should be replaced
occasionally.
REPORTERS LINE: Most DC devices supply the operating life of the brushes in
use (commonly in hours) and it is essential to track how long the brushes have
been in utilization to prevent damage.
Continuous & Peak Power
The power of a series wound DC motor, expressed in kW or HP, is the output
power supplied by the device.
REPORTERS LINE: Yet if we take a complete look into the wiring of the armature
and field windings of this DC motor, it’s clearly distinguishable from the
other forms of this device.
REPORTERS LINE: To know that, let us go back to the above discussed basic
fact, that this device has a field coil attached in a series configuration to
the armature coil. For this reason, comparatively greater current flows across
the field coils, and it is designed accordingly.
The field windings of the motor are wound with comparatively smaller turns as
the current across the field is its armature current and hence for needed mmf
(magnetomotive force), fewer numbers of them are required
