- 32. For appreciable generation of emf, the field resistance must be always less certain resistance, that resistance is called as the critical resistance of the machine . Critical field resistance
- 33. Magnetic neutral axis : It is perpendicular to the lines of force between the two opposite adjacent poles. Leading pole Tip (LPT) : It is the end of the pole which first comes in contact with the armature. Trailing pole tip : It is the end of the pole which comes in contact later with the armature. General terms used in Armature reaction

- 35. Effects of Armature Reaction It decreases the efficiency of the machine It produces sparking at the brushes It produces a demagnetising effect on the main poles It reduces the emf induced Self excited generators some times fail to build up emf
- 36. Armature reaction remedies 1.Brushes must be shifted to the new position of the MNA 2.Extra turns in the field winding 3.Slots are made on the tips to increase the reluctance 4. The laminated cores of the shoe are staggered 5. In big machines the compensating winding at pole shoes produces a flux which just opposes the armature mmf flux automatically.
- 37. Commutation The change in direction of current takes place when the conductors are along the brush axis . During this reverse process brushes short circuit that coil and undergone commutation Due to this sparking is produced and the brushes will be damaged and also causes voltage dropping.
- 38. Losses in DC Generators 1. Copper losses or variable losses 2. Stray losses or constant losses Stray losses : consist of (a) iron losses or core losses and (b) windage and friction losses . Iron losses : occurs in the core of the machine due to change of magnetic flux in the core . Consist of hysteresis loss and eddy current loss. Hysteresis loss depends upon the frequency , Flux density , volume and type of the core .
- 39. Losses Hysteresis loss depends upon the frequency , Flux density , volume and type of the core . Eddy current losses : directly proportional to the flux density , frequency , thickness of the lamination . Windage and friction losses are constant due to the opposition of wind and friction .

- 42. Back emf The induced emf in the rotating armature conductors always acts in the opposite direction of the supply voltage . According to the Lenz’s law, the direction of the induced emf is always so as to oppose the cause producing it . In a DC motor , the supply voltage is the cause and hence this induced emf opposes the supply voltage.

- 46. According to the speed equation of a dc motor N ∞ Eb/φ ∞ V- Ia Ra/ φ Thus speed can be controlled by- Flux control method: By Changing the flux by controlling the current through the field winding. Armature control method: By Changing the armature resistance which in turn changes the voltage applied across the armature Speed control of DC motors
- 47. Advantages of flux control: It provides relatively smooth and easy control Speed control above rated speed is possible As the field winding resistance is high the field current is small. Power loss in the external resistance is small . Hence this method is economical Disadvantages: Flux can be increased only upto its rated value High speed affects the commutation, motor operation becomes unstable Flux control
- 48. Armature voltage control method The speed is directly proportional to the voltage applied across the armature . Voltage across armature can be controlled by adding a variable resistance in series with the armature Potential divider control : If the speed control from zero to the rated speed is required , by rheostatic method then the voltage across the armature can be varied by connecting rheostat in a potential divider arrangement .
