This document discusses mechanical work done in a singly excited magnetic system. It describes how the work done depends on whether the armature movement is slow or instantaneous. For slow movement, the exciting current remains nearly constant as the flux linkage increases from Ψ1 to Ψ2, resulting in mechanical work equal to the area OACA'O. For instantaneous movement, a counter EMF is induced that opposes the exciting current, meaning the operating point moves along the vertical line AC instead of along the flux curve. The mechanical work is then equal to the area enclosed by OACDFO minus the area OA'CDFO.

Mechanical Work Done
in a Singly excited system
Mechanical Work Done Consider the simple magnetic relay again, the movable end of armature is assumed to be held in open position. When the switch S is closed, the exciting current increases from Zero(0) to I 1 = Vt / r and flux linkage rises from Zero to 1. Here r is coil resistance. Consider the fig. shown:- The moveable end of the Armature is assumed in closed Position. When switch S is closed the exciting current rises from Zero to I1 = Vt / r. Whereas flux linkage rises from zero to 2 [2 > 1].
The energy stored in the magnetic field is now given by the cross-hatched area OCDO.
During the armature movement from its open position, the reluctance of the magnetic path decreases, thereby increasing the flux linkage from its initial value of 1. These increments in flux linkage induces a counter Emf in the coil, which opposes the flow of exciting current I,
ie.
The that magnitude of counter Emf induced in the exciting coil depends on how fast the armature moves. The two extreme cases of armature motion are considered below:- Slow Movement: -
With the armature in open position the exciting current is I 1; the flux linkage are 1 and operating point is A. In closed position the flux linkage is 2 , current is I 1 and operating point is C. The slow movement of armature causes almost negligible counter Emf
as Time 1 2
As a result , exciting current I1 remains almost constant during
armature movement and operating point is A reaches new operating point C along vertical line AC as shown:--
Now magnetic energy stored Changed during the process
Wfld =(Energy stored in closed position)-(Energy stored in open)
Wfld = Area OACDFO Area OAAFO
Electrical energy input during this change:-

But Welec =Wmech + Wfld
Wmech = Area OACDFO Area OACDFO = Area OACAO
