I. Introduction:
There are 3 main types of DC motor that are available:- Series, Shunt and Compound. These
terms relate to the type of connection of the field windings with respect to the armature circuit.
The field windings of a DC series motor are linked in series with the armature. The series winding
will contain a small number of turns of bigger wire or copper strip capable of carrying the motor's
full load current. Due to the low resistance of the windings, a considerable current may be pulled
during startup, resulting in a high beginning torque.
The field winding is linked in parallel (shunt) with the armature in a DC Shunt motor. The shunt
winding is made up of several turns of smaller copper wire, and its field current will be constant
since it is linked across the DC field supply.
The majority of the field of a DC compound motor is wound for a shunt field, but there are a few
turns of series winding on top. The series turns are linked in series with the armature, and the
shunt is connected across the field supply. This results in a motor that has both shunt and series
properties.

IV. Answers to Questions and Solution to Problems
1. Compare with the torque equation, what do you notice about the shape of the armature
current vs torque graph of shunt motor? of series motor? of compound motor?
I discovered that the shunt and compound motors had eight torques, but the series
motor only has seven. In shunt and compound motors, the graph is also constantly
growing, but in series motors, after the fourth armature current, the next value dropped
down, as seen in figure 3.5.
2. What do you notice about the slope of the speed vs torque graph?
The slope in all the motors are decreasing from left to right.
3. What do you notice about the slope of the efficiency vs torque graph?
The slope of the shunt and compound motors is similar to that of a curve. The slope of
the series motor is similar to that of steps.
4. List as many factors you can to account for the efficiency being less than 100%. Which of
these will increase as the torque increases and which will decrease?
The input power is one factor; if it is large, the efficiency will be poor. Also, if the torque
and speed are low, the output power will be reduced, implying that the efficiency will be
less than 100 percent, according to the formula Efficiency = Po/Pin x 100 percent.
5. What are the main differences between the torque/speed curves for the shunt and series
connected motor?
They both decrease from left to right, but the series motor decreases steadily, but the
shunt motor has a significant shift in value in the fourth speed, which has substantially
decreased.
V. Findings and Conclusions
I learnt how to compute the input power, output power, and efficiency as a result of this
project, which focused on the speed and torque characteristics of shunt, series, and
compound motors. I also discovered that when the speed rises, the torque falls. Because
torque is inversely related to speed, this is the case. As you can see from the formula of
efficiency, we need to have a high input power to gain a low efficiency. We have a higher
value of input power compared to output power, we will have low efficiency for output,
But when we have a low output than input power we will have a low efficiency also
Regarding the graph I discovered that if the speed for each trial falls with regard to
torque, the graph for speed (rev/min) would drop from left to right. For the y axis, set the
speed (rev/min) and the torque for the x axis.
