“SERIES DC MOTOR (A REPORTERS GUIDE)”

INTRODUCTION (before at the first Slide) SLIDE #1

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.

AFTER THE RECAP SLIDES

(Line Before Proceeding the next slide: Now let us discussed to


our main topic which is SERIES DC MOTOR)

SERIES WOUND DC MOTOR (Diagram) Slide #15


REPORTERS LINE: DC motors have a wide range of applications ranging from
electric shavers to automobiles. To cater to this wide range of applications, they
are classified into different types based on the field winding connections to the
armature as:

 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.

principles)

REPORTERS LINE: Now let us see the actual Lab test to our Diagram.

Series Wound DC Motor Specifications SLIDE # 23

Series Wound DC Motor Specifications


Some basic specifications can help users select the appropriate series DC
motor design, and this post will briefly discuss some of them.

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: A series wound DC motor when in particular applications, must


be determined for its continuous power, as the peak value should only be
applied for short periods such as in starting cases.
Speed Range
Series wound DC motors, once their output shaft is unloaded, will resume
accelerating until they annihilate themselves.

REPORTERS LINE: This is a consequence of wiring the field coil in series


arrangement with the armature and is the most concerning drawback of these
devices.
For this reason, these devices should never be operated with no load connected
to them, under any situation, and should always be loaded. Most specification
sheets present a safe/maximum level of RPMs that will not break these
instruments and should be especially considered when selecting a motor model.

Construction of Series DC Motor Slide#29


The construction aspect of this device is similar to any other form of DC
motors in almost all features. It includes all the fundamental parts like the
stator housing the field coil or the rotor carrying the armature conductors,
and the other essential components such as the commutator or the brush
segments all connected in the appropriate sequence as in the case of a generic
DC 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

REPORTERS LINE:The wire is larger, as the diameter is considerably increased


to supply minimum electrical resistance to the flow of complete armature
current. Visit here to see the wiring of these motors.
In spite of the above differences about having fewer winding-turns, the
running of this DC device remains unaffected, as the current across the field
is reasonably large to generate a field strong enough for producing the needed
value of torque.
