Depending on the construction of the motor, most likely YES. As long as the motors components allow for the opposite flow of electricity, then the only problems would be speed (turning the motor fast enough to generate) and/or force (overcoming the interior magnetic force required to turn the motor shaft).

A DC motor is a electromechanical device that turns electromagnetism into mechanical torque or motion.

It consist of a armature/rotor which has to coils either end of it.

This is then connected to a shaft and placed inside a field of windings.

As direct current goes into the coils it cause a magnetic field which in turn attracts and repels the magnetism created on the field windings. As the rotor begins to turn the coils then switch to opposite poles using a commuator which then continues to created this attract and reply magnetism.

What is the different between ac dc motors?

DC Motor works on DC source and AC motor works on AC source


Fan works on ac or DC?

It depends on the motor. The fan is driven by an electric motor, and it can use a dc motor (as in a car) or an ac motor (as in a house). They are not interchangeable.


What generates more noise ac motor or dc motor?

dc motors generate more noise.


DC motor has sparking what to do?

Found one DC motor having small sparking,but the commutator is light and dark bar pattern.commutator is round. We 500kw dC motor operted at 500rpm with 480Amp's .The DC motor full load current is 1050Amp's. Why the commutator had small spaerking.


What is DC motor?

A DC motor is an electric motor that runs on direct current (DC) electricity. A DC motor is designed to run on DC electric power. Two examples of pure DC designs are Michael Faraday's homopolar motor (which is uncommon), and the ball bearing motor, which is (so far) a novelty. By far the most common DC motor types are the brushed and brushless types, which use internal and external commutation respectively to reverse the current in the windings in synchronism with rotation.
