DC MACHINES

1.0 Brief Introduction

A DC machine is an electromechanical energy alteration device.
The working principle of a DC machine is when electric current flows through a
coil within a magnetic field, and then the magnetic force generates a torque that
rotates the dc motor. The DC machines are classified into two types such as DC
generator as well as DC motor.

 Construction of DC Machine:
1) Yoke: Another name of a yoke is the frame. The main
function of the yoke in the machine is to offer
mechanical support intended for poles and protects the
entire machine from moisture, dust, etc. The materials
used in the yoke are designed with cast iron, cast steel
otherwise rolled steel.

2) Pole and Pole Core: The pole of the DC machine is an

electromagnet and the field winding is winding among
pole. Whenever field winding is energized then the pole
gives magnetic flux. The materials used for this are cast
steel, cast iron otherwise pole core. It can be built with
the annealed steel laminations for reducing the power
drop because of the eddy currents.

4
3) Pole Shoe: Pole shoe in the DC machine is an extensive
part as well as to enlarge the region of the pole. Because
of this region, flux can be spread out within the air-gap
as well as extra flux can be passed through the air space
toward armature. The materials used to build pole shoe is
cast iron otherwise cast steed, and also used annealed
steel lamination to reduce the loss of power because of
eddy currents.

4) Field Windings: In this, the windings are wounded in the

region of pole core & named as field coil. Whenever
current is supplied through field winding than it
electromagnetics the poles which generate required flux.
The material used for field windings is copper.

5) Armature Core: Armature core includes a huge number

of slots within its edge. The armature conductor is
located in these slots. It provides the low-reluctance path
toward the flux generated with field winding. The
materials used in this core are permeability low-
reluctance materials like iron otherwise cast. The
lamination is used to decrease the loss because of the
eddy current.

6) Armature Winding: The armature winding can be formed

by interconnecting the armature conductor. Whenever an
armature winding is turned with the help of prime mover
then the voltage, as well as magnetic flux, gets induced
within it. This winding is allied to an exterior circuit. The
materials used for this winding are conducting material
like copper.

7) Commutator: The main function of the commutator in

the DC machine is to collect the current from the
armature conductor as well as supplies the current to the
load using brushes. And also provides uni-directional

5
 torque for DC-motor. The commutator can be built with
a huge number of segments in the edge form of hard
drawn copper. The Segments in the commutator are
protected from the thin mica layer.

8) Brushes: Brushes in the DC machine gather the current

from the commutator and supply it to the exterior load.
Brushes wear with time to inspect frequently. The
materials used in brushes are graphite otherwise carbon
which is in rectangular form.

 DC Machine Advantages
I. DC machines like dc motors have various advantages
like starting torque is high, reversing, fast-starting &
stopping, changeable speeds through voltage input
II. These are very easily controlled as well as cheaper
when compared with AC
III. Speed control is good
IV. Torque is high
V. Operation is Seamless
VI. Free from harmonics
VII. Installation and maintenance is easy.

2.0 Aim of the Micro-Project

Collect information and MCQs on DC Machine

3.0 Intended Course Outcomes

a) DC machines are used in supplying excitation of an
alternator
b) It is also used in many applications like welding process,
variable-speed motor drives and electrolytic and
electroplating process.

1. Theory & Performance of Electrical Machines (Author:
J.b.Gupta): -
This book gives us deep knowledge about DC Machines. It also
provides as all types and subtypes of DC Machines. This book theoretically
provides construction, working principle and operation of DC Machines.

4.0 Proposed Methodology

1) The first task was selection of group of six members.
2) The different microprojects was searched based on
syllabus.
3) Small micro projects were selected and discussed with
subject teacher.
4) Project was finalized.
5) Started collecting information for report.
6) On the basis collected information started to create
multiple choice questions.
7) Finally, after all this we started working on the micro
project.
