Dc Definition and 1000 Threads

conflict: why synchronous machine doesn't produce induced EMF in the DC field wires Isn't it current path through winding which produce magnetic field (rotating) the must produce EMF in the dc winding of field (same theory of induction) but why isn't true in synchronous

I've made a simple DC motor like this image: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3156/2864655414_234d5d3207.jpg I'm just confused why initially when i increase the number of loops (about 15) it spins faster.But after this limit the speed of the rotor is no longer as fast as it was before. Why...

I have to build a device which have 4 dof governed by 4 separate motors. Need to remotely control which was the motor spins and when to stop them. What equipment do I need? and is there any guidelines? Need help asap. Thanks,

I work as an engineer and I've been looking for an explanation for something that I have been puzzled by. Physics background of problem: In brushed DC motors, electrical coils (poles) rotate as the motor moves. A change in inductance as they move makes small variations in motor current...

I have been studying the plans for a few AC to DC converters and I understand that the basic conceptual design is one where the AC power is transformed to lower the voltage and is then passed through a bridge rectifier to convert that power to what I call hopping DC. The power is then smoothed...

Are they shining brightly inside the device when used to convert ac?

Hello All, Could you please explain what would happen if I charge a capacitor with say 30 khz DC 500 volts with a 10000 uf cap. Would a gas discharge tube, varistor, triac of 300 volts connected across the capacitor help to preventing it from exploding? Ged

I was recently informed that AC is the preferred method of transmitting power because it suffers significantly less power loss going from the generating station to where ever it needs to go when compared to DC losses. In my introductory electricity class we learned that power through a given...

Hello, I am an automotive technician so I work with a lot of 12volt DC motors. First, it seems to me that bad connections or wires can cause excessive voltage drops to motors, but I don't understand what the difference is between a good cable and a bad cable. Or what qualifies a good...

To increase a DC generator's turning effect, we increase the number of turns of the coil. How does this increase the turning effect? Will it concentrate the field lines or will the force acted on each coil be added to each other to increase the force on one armature? I think both happens because...

I was wondering whether there was any literature on brushed DC motors used as a generator or whether you know anything of the sort? I know that DC motors behave differently when used as a generator instead of a motor. However I have not been able to find anything about it so I was wondering...

Does the back emf in a dc motor start to appear after a slight delay(say 1 or 2 seconds) after starting up the motor? I have had this simple doubt for a long time.According to the "generator principle" both applied emf and back emf will always exist simultaneously.Also it would be in violation...
