Power losses
Resistive losses
- Proportional to the square of the current (torque)
- Resistance depends on temperature (0.4%/K)
Core losses
- Proportional to the rotating speed
Mechanical losses
- Bearing friction
• proportional to the rotating speed
- Damping (air etc.)
• proportional to the square of rotating speed
Additional losses
- Variable frequency drive harmonics etc.

Characteristics of a PMDC motor
Maximum torque and efficiency are speed dependent
Operating limits of a PMDC motor

Field weakening
Reduce magnetic field flux density B
- Smaller B -> smaller torque constant Kt and BEMF constant Ke
- Smaller Kt -> less torque
- Smaller Ke -> more angular velocity

Four quadrant operation
Brushed DC motor velocity control
The torque is proportional to the current in the winding
Current is controlled by voltage
- Or usually with pulse width modulation, PWM
- If the PWM frequency is high enough, the current stays almost constant (small
fluctuations)
Brushed DC motor control
Motor needs large currents
- E.g. microcontroller signal not powerful enough for running the motor
- A separate motor drive circuit controls the motor current according to the
microcontroller signal
One signal for PWM, one for direction

Brushless DC motor (BLDC)
Permanent magnet rotor
Stator with windings
External commutation
- integrated position sensosr,
usually hall sensors
Almost service free
Withstands well short term overloading
- heat is transported effectively from the stator into the environment
More complex control system
BLDC commutation

BLDC commutation
AC motor
Two categories
- Asynchronous
- Synchronous
Input usually three phase sinusoidal AC voltage
Only bearings need service
Control with variable frequency drive

AC field generation
Three field coils (per pole)
- 120 °phase difference
http://tdflashzone.net23.net/1_6_Physics-Flashes.html
Synchronous AC: Permanent magnet
Permanent magnet AC motor is almost the same as BLDC.
Synchronous AC: Permanent magnet
https://www.ecnmag.com/article/2009/10/comparing-motor-control-techniques
Asynchronous AC: Induction
Stator field induces current in the bars which causes torque
- Requires slip to create induced currents
Types
- Squirrel cage
• Rotor made of conducting short circuited bars in steel frame
- Wound rotor
http://www.nidec.com/en-IN/technology/motor/basic/00026/?prt=1
AC motor control
Rotational speed is determined
by the frequency of the input voltage
Frequency is controlled with variable frequency drive/inverter
(taajuusmuuttaja in Finnish)
- Rectification of the three phase voltage to DC voltage
- The rectified DC voltage is converted e.g. with pulse width
modulation (PWM) to AC voltage with the needed frequency
- The AC voltage is fed to one of the three coils of the stator
according to the sensors of the control system.
Rated values of an induction motor
Rated values are for continuous duty
-
Rated voltage – winding insulation
Rated current – ohmic resistive losses
Rated field – magnetic saturation of the material
Rated power = T*omega
For a dimensioning a motor for a variable load, it is possible to
calculate an equivalent constant load or simulate the system
Motors for servo systems
Many designs: DC (brushed or brushless), AC
Integrated feedback sensors
Ability to tolerate short term overloads
Low inductance
- Small electric time constant
Low rotor inertial mass
- Small mechanical time constant

Summary
Electric motors can be found anywhere and for any power rating
They have excellent efficiency at proper loading conditions
- Usually this means a large enough rpm
Output power limited by temperature
- Can be overloaded for a short while
Maximum rotating speed limited by back emf / supply voltage
