(if question asked for 2 marks classification flowchart will do and for 5 marks
draw and explain each types of DC Motor)
Separately Excited Machines: - In a separately excited machine, the field winding
is provided with a separate de source to supply the field current.
4
Series-wound Machines:- In this type of machines, the field winding is connected
in series with the armature.
Compound-wound Machines:- In this both the shunt and series field windings. The
compound machines are further classified into long shunt and short shunt

Slip Ring in Three-Phase Induction Motor
Purpose:
Once the motor reaches normal speed, the external circuit is disconnected, and the
slip rings may be shorted.
This enhances motor performance, particularly during starting and speed regulation.

DC Motor: Construction and Operation
Construction of DC Motor
10
A DC motor consists of the following essential parts:
The operation of a DC motor is based on Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction and the
Lorentz Force Law.
1. Electromagnetic Force:
When a current-carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field, it experiences a
mechanical force. The direction of this force is given by the Fleming’s Left-Hand Rule.
2. Torque Generation:
Current through the armature winding interacts with the magnetic field, creating torque
that rotates the rotor.
Operation of DC Motor
11
1. Input Power:
A DC power source is connected to the armature winding through the brushes and
commutator.
2. Magnetic Interaction:
The current through the armature creates a magnetic field. This interacts with the stator's
magnetic field, resulting in a force on the armature conductors.
3. Rotation:
The commutator reverses the current direction in the winding, ensuring continuous
rotation in one direction.
4. Output Power:
The mechanical output from the shaft is used to perform work.
