Executive Summary of the Project


This project is about solving Complex Engineering Problems. In this project we will study
about the load characteristics of DC Series motor. The project will be implemented in the
MATLAB Simulink. In the project we will learn about the 1. Speed-Current Characteristics.
2. Torque-Current Characteristics. 3. Speed-Torque Characteristics. There are two types of
DC motors based on the construction such as self-excited, and separately excited. Similarly,
self-excited motors classified into three types namely DC series motor, DC shunt motor, and
DC compound motor. The working principle of this motor mainly depends on electromagnetic
law, which states that whenever a magnetic field is formed in the region of current carrying
conductor & cooperates with an outside field, then the rotating motion can be generated.
Once the series motor is started, then it will give utmost speed as well as torque slowly with
high speed.

What is DC Series Motor?


The DC Series Motor is similar to any other motor because the main function of this motor is
to convert electrical energy to mechanical energy. The operation of this motor mainly
depends on the electromagnetic principle. Whenever the magnetic field is formed
approximately, a current carrying conductor cooperates with an exterior magnetic field, and
then a rotating motion can be generated.

Components used in DC Series Motor


The components of this motor mainly include the rotor (the armature), commutator, stator,
axle, field windings, and brushes. The fixed component of the motor is the stator, and it is
built with two otherwise more electromagnet pole parts. The rotor includes the armature and
the windings on the core allied to the commutator. The power source can be connected
toward the armature windings throughout a brush array allied to the commutator. The rotor
includes a central axle for rotating, and the field winding must be able to hold high current
due to the larger quantity of current throughout the winding, the larger will be the torque
produced with the motor. Therefore the motor winding can be fabricated with solid gauge
wire. This wire does not permit a huge number of twists. The winding can be fabricated with
solid copper bars because it assists in simple as well as efficient heat dissipation generated
accordingly by a large amount of current flow during winding.

DC Series Motor Advantages


The advantages of the DC series motor include the following.

• Vast starting torque

• Easy assembly and simple design

• Protection is easy

• Cost-effective

DC Series Motor Disadvantages


The disadvantages of DC series motor include the following.

• The motor speed regulation is fairly poor. When the load speed increases then the
machine speed will decrease

• When the speed is increased, then the DC series motor’s torque will be decreased
sharply.

• This motor always needs the load before running the motor. So these motors are not
suitable for where the motor’s load is totally removed.
