For large motors what is the ratio of compensating winding is required for increasing the speed of the motor?(a) 2:1(b) 4:1(c) 6:1(d) 8:1This question was posed to me in a national level competition.My enquiry is from Speed Control Using Field Control of Series Motor topic in section DC Motors of DC Machines |

Answer» RIGHT CHOICE is (a) 2:1 Easiest explanation: For motors requiring a wide range of speed control, the field ampere-turns are much smaller than the armature ampere-turns at HIGH speeds causing extreme distortion of the flux density in the air-gap. This LEADS to poor COMMUTATION. Compensating winding can be used to increase the speed range which can be 2 to 1 for large motors. |
