    DC Motor: Electrical DC Motors Are Continuous Actuators That Convert Electrical Energy Into Mechanical

    Uploaded by

    Himani Patel
    DC motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy through the interaction of magnetic fields. They work by placing a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field, which produces a force on the conductor due to the Lorentz force law. This force causes the armature coil, connected to a DC power supply, to rotate between the north and south poles of a permanent magnet. DC motors are used in steel plants to power equipment like cranes and skips through variable speed control, but require regular brush replacement. Protections for DC motors include overcurrent, undervoltage, earth fault, and negative phase sequence protections.

    DC Motor

     Electrical DC Motors are continuous actuators that convert electrical energy into mechanical
    energy. The DC motor achieves this by producing a continuous angular rotation that can be
    used to rotate pumps, fans, compressors, wheels, etc.
     WORKING PRINCIPLE
    The DC motor is the device which converts the direct current into the mechanical work. It
    works on the principle of Lorentz Law, which states that “the current carrying conductor
    placed in a magnetic and electric field experience a force”. And that force is called the
    Lorentz force. The Fleming left-hand rule gives the direction of the force.

    1. The armature and stator are the two main parts of the DC motor. The armature is
    the rotating part, and the stator is their stationary part. The armature coil is
    connected to the DC supply.

    2. The armature coil consists the commutators and brushes. The commutators convert
    the AC induces in the armature into DC and brushes transfer the current from
    rotating part of the motor to the stationary external load. The armature is placed
    between the north and south pole of the permanent or electromagnet.

    3. By the interaction of the fields (produces by the coil and the magnet), resultant field
    develops across the conductor. The resultant field tends to regain its original
    position, i.e. in the axis of the main field. The field exerts the force at the ends of the
    conductor, and thus the coil starts rotating.

     The 230 V DC motors are used in the stock house in CT car and cast house in skip and cranes.
     Advantages of using dc series motors in CT car and skip is that we can have speed variations
    by controlling series resistance and we get more power in less voltage .
     We get DC for the plant from C Blast Furnace New PCC ,F Blast Furnace substation and
    Power House #2 but currently only the former two are working.
     Disadvantage of DC motor is that the carbon brushes used in it have to be continuously
    changed in order to have it working continuously.
     Protection of DC motors:
    1.Overcurrent
    2.Undervoltage
    3.Negative Phase Sequence/Single Phase
    4.Earth Fault
