Hi,
This is a general question:
Do the motor constants KV and KT stay constant at high current?
Thanks

Also, which motor type(s) are you asking about? And why would the motor type make a difference?berkeman said:What changes with high motor current?
Motor constants at high current refer to the physical properties of a motor that remain constant when the motor is operating at high current levels. These properties include the motor's torque constant (Kt), back electromotive force constant (Ke), and resistance (R).
Motor constants are crucial for predicting the performance of a motor at high current levels. They can help determine the maximum torque that a motor can produce, as well as its efficiency and operating temperature. Motor constants also play a role in selecting the appropriate motor for a specific application.
At high currents, motor constants typically remain constant or may decrease slightly due to the increase in temperature. However, if the motor is pushed beyond its rated current, the motor constants may start to deviate from their expected values, which can affect the motor's performance.
The main factors that affect motor constants at high current include the motor's design and construction, the type of materials used, and the operating conditions such as temperature and load. Other external factors such as power supply quality and voltage fluctuations can also impact motor constants.
Motor constants can be measured using specialized equipment such as a dynamometer or a power analyzer. These instruments can provide accurate measurements of motor torque, speed, and power consumption, which can then be used to calculate the motor constants. It is important to ensure the accuracy of the measurements and take into account any external factors that may affect the results.
