Relevant lecture slides are 15-26.
|
||
|
Two worked examples can be found in the lecture slides 24-26.
|

|
|
||
|
In a simple DC motor, the stator is either a permanent magnet or a coil with a
|
||
|
current flowing through it.
|
||
|
Both create a constant magnetic field.

|
The rotor is just a coil with current flowing through it by a (different) DC power supply:

|
||
|
|
||
|
Note the commutator and brushes.
|
||
|
This flips the current direction inside the coil, flipping the direction of the induced magnetic field,
|
||
|
and therefore flipping the direction of the resultant force.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The split in the commutator is placed such that the current flips just as the force would.

# Torque, $T$
|
||
|
|
||
|
$$T = rBIl = KI$$
|
||
|
|
||
|
using $F = BIl$ and $T = rF$, where $B$ is magnetic field strength, $I$ is current flowing through coil, $l$ is length
|
||
|
of coil in the magnetic field,
|
||
|
$K$ is a constant which varies with motor designs, and $I$ is the current through the motor.
|
||
|
|
||
|
# Back EMF, $E_b$
|
||
|
|
||
|
$$ E_b = Bvl = K\omega $$
|
||
|
|
||
|
where $B$ is magnetic field strength, $v$ is linear velocity, $l$ is length of coil in field,
|
||
|
$K$ is a constant defined by the motor, and $\omega$ is angular velocity.
|
||
|
|
||
|
# Relating Voltage to Motor Performance
|
||
|
|
||
|
There are two equations which govern the motor's performance:
|
||
|
|
||
|
$$V_\text{in} = E_b + IR$$
|
||
|
|
||
|
\begin{equation} \label{eqn_torquespeed}
|
||
|
V_\text{in} = K\omega + \frac{T}{K}R
|
||
|
\end{equation}
|
||
|
|
||
|
![Equation \ref{eqn_torquespeed} can be plotted to show how speed varies with load. Plotting multiple voltage also show how speed varies with coltages.](./images/vimscrot-2023-03-30T11:33:14,679355133+01:00.png)
