Course Introduction
This course is designed for BSEE students to attain an in-depth understanding of the design,
construction and working principles of direct current motors and generators. The course
begins with a discussion of the principles of motor and generator actions, construction as
well as the different parts of dc electromechanical rotating machines (dynamo).
Succeeding topics cover the different types, operating characteristics and efficiency of dc
generator and motors.
Three learning modules are developed to guide the students through the course content
and assessments to ensure that students can demonstrate the course learning outcomes at
the end of the semester.
Direct current (DC) machines are characterized by their versatility. By means of various
combinations of shunt-, series-, and separately-excited field windings, they can be designed
to display a wide variety of voltage-load or speed-torque characteristics. The versatility of
dc machines will ensure their continued use in a wide variety of applications.
This module introduces and discusses the principles underlying the operations as well as the
construction and the arrangement of the various parts of the direct current (DC) machines.
At the end of this module, learners should be able to:
Know the construction and the arrangement of the different parts of the dynamo
Calculate the different armature winding parameters
Know the principles of generator and motor actions

MODULE 2: Direct Current Generator Characteristics
The generator performance deals primarily with the relation between excitation, terminal
voltage, and load. These relations can be best exhibited graphically by means of curves
known as generator characteristics. These characteristics show at a glance the behavior of
the generator under different load conditions. Furthermore, it is of great importance in
judging the suitability of generator for a particular purpose.
In this module, you will learn the different types of dc generators and how each type
behaves under different operating conditions. Specifically, at the end of this module, you
should be able to:
Until today, DC motors continue to provide solutions for many industrial applications,
particularly those requiring constant torque across the motor’s entire speed range. Each
type of motor has very definite operating characteristics in so far as starting torque, overload
capacity, and speed variation with changes in loads are concerned. The arbitrary
classification of motors on the basis of these characteristics is important in connection with
the problem of selection and application. These characteristics are investigated to
determine the performance and suitability of a motor for a particular purpose.
In this module, you will learn the different types of dc motors and how each type behaves
under different operating conditions. Specifically, at the end of this module, you should be
able to:

Course Study Guide
Learning diligently, intelligently and independently is the key to successfully finish this course.
You have to be a self-motivated, active, results-driven, and target-oriented learner. These
qualities will not only help you meet the content and the performance standards of this
course but more importantly you will realize that you hold within you everything you need to
achieve all the success that you desire.
The following guides and house rules will help you to be on track in your learning process:
1. Schedule and manage your time to read and understand every part of the modules.
2. Be very conscious of your study schedule. Learn to manage all the activities given to
you in all your courses.
3. Engage all possible resources to help you understand the readings and other tasks
given to you. You can reach out to your classmates or your instructor as soon as
possible for clarification rather than trying to do it on your own.
4. Perform your task religiously. Students who create a study routine and have the
discipline to stick to it can study over a longer amount of time and complete work
efficiently.
5. Read and understand the assessment tools before you start doing your tasks. Always
aim at achieving the highest standards in doing your assigned tasks.
6. You are free to browse and read the different units of the modules even before doing
the tasks in each unit. However, you need to ensure that you will not miss any part of
the module, especially the activity in every unit as scheduled.
7. Write legibly in answering all the assessment and evaluation activities. When you are
asked to explain something, you should write in complete and grammatically correct
sentences. Be clear and direct with your main points.
8. You will be required to submit through correspondence the accomplished
requirements on or before the deadline. Make sure to follow it up with your instructor
through text or any other media available for you.
9. While waiting for your instructor’s feedback of your accomplished modules, continue
doing the task in the succeeding units of the modules.
10. Always stay mentally and physically healthy.

Final Examination
Evaluation
The course modules have formative and summative assessment activities to determine the
progress of your learning in the course. This is a way for you to recognize your strengths and
where improvement is needed.
• You are required to answer all the self-assessment activities (in the form of
exercises) found in the module, but your scores will not be included in the
computation of your final grade. However, the completeness of your answers to
the self-assessment activities will still be checked and will be part of your course
completion. Self-assessment activities are designed as a review management
tool to prepare you for the graded quizzes and examinations. Engaging
yourselves in such activities will serve as prompts to tell you if you need to study
further.
