Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A separately excited DC motor is rated to deliver a maximum torque of 50 Nm and operates at a constant field flux. If the armature resistance is 1Ω, calculate the current required to develop this torque.

💡 Hint: You will need the torque constant related to the specific motor.

Question 2

How would you design a torque-speed control plan for a DC motor in an industrial application that requires variable speed settings? Include the method of controlling speed.

💡 Hint: Consider both armature voltage and field flux methods for effective control.
