DC MOTOR
- Some applications require the control the speed
- Some applications require the control the torque
- In order to control the torque or speed we need to know the T-
characteristics of the motor and the mechanical load
Intersections between the two characteristics will
determine the operating point

Maximum torque capability reduces
Method of speed control in DC motor drives
Armature voltage control : retain maximum torque capability
Field flux control (i.e. flux reduced) : reduce maximum torque capability
For wide range of speed control
0 to base  armature voltage, above base  field flux reduction

• We can limit Ia at start-up by:
1) Controlling Vt using variable supply – e.g. using
power electronics converter
2) Adding external resistor  known as starter
