DATE : 17/10/2011
AIM : To measure no load characteristics oI the DC machine
APPARATUS
1. DC Motor-Separately Exited(DM -100A)
2. DC Generator-Separately Excited(DCG-100)
3. Tachometer
4. Voltmeter (DC, 0-300V)-2
5. Ammeter (DC,0-1A)-2
6. Voltage control Rheostat(330O/1.0A)
7. Starting Rheostat(330O/1.0A)
8. Field Rheostat(330O/1.0A)


DATA
DC Motor (DM -100A)
Armature Winding Resistance 14O
Field Winding Resistance 928O
PROCEDURE Field Rheostat




Starter Rheostat


Voltage control Shunt
Rheostat Field


FIGURE 01


1. Separately Excited DC motor was connected as shown in Iigure1
2. Starting rheostat was kept at maximum position, Iield rheostat was

'
'

kept at minimum position and voltage control rheostat at minimum

voltage position
3. Motor was started and Iield current was set to rated value.
4. First the variation oI speed with terminal voltage was observed.
5. Then the terminal voltage was kept at a Iixed value and the variation
oI speed was observed by decreasing the Iield.
