A motor uses electricity; it does not produce it. If you are somehow using a DC motor as a generator, then it will produce power equal to the input power minus the motor losses. If the input power is you spinning the rotor, the output power will be directly proportional to how much work you put into spinning the rotor.

In synchronous motor theory is excitation current the same as field current?

Yes, in synchronous motor theory, excitation current is the same as field current. This current is used to produce the magnetic field in the rotor that interacts with the stator current to generate torque and make the motor operate synchronously.


What is shaft motor?

It is the same thing as the motor's rotor speed given in revolutions per minute.


In induction motor the will the direction of the rotor will be in the direction of the current?

The direction an induction motor will turn depends upon the direction of the rotating field setup by the winding. Remember in AC the direction of the current reverses itself 120 times every second for a 60 hz system. So no it will not turn in the "direction" of the current.


What does the split ring commutator do in a motor?

It generates a alternating current to keep the motor rotating in the same direction.

The same type you use in a current production diesel motor...


Why starting currrent is higher in 3 phase id motor than 3 phase transformer?

CLARIFICATION AND ANSWER: 1. STARTING CURRENT PRODUCED ONLY BY ITS LOAD NOT SOURCE(SAY STEPDOWN TRAFO) 2. IF THE INDUCTION MOTOR IS THE ONLY LOAD OF THE STEP DOWN TRANSFORMER (SOURCE)-THE READING WILL BE AND SHOULD BE THE SAME IN THE SECONDARY SIDE UNLESS YOUR AMMETER IS IN THE PRIMARY SURELY WILL READ LOWER BUT POWER CONSUMPTION REMAINS THE SAME. 3. IT ALSO DEPENDS ON THE RATING OF THE MOTOR LOAD AND THE TYPE OF STARTING METHOD USED THAT YOU CAN MEASURE STARTING CURRENT.


What is the definition of direct current?

(a) A current flowing in one direction only; -- distinguished from alternating current. When steady and not pulsating a direct current is often called a continuous current. (b) A direct induced current, or momentary current of the same direction as the inducing current, produced by stopping or removing the latter; also, a similar current produced by removal of a magnet.


What is the phase current of a three phase 2.2kw 415v motor connected in star?

The line current would be the same if the motor were connected in delta. The current can be based on the rule of thumb which says 7 amps must be allowed for a 1-HP single-phase motor on 240 v. A 2.2 kW motor is three times as powerful, and on a three-phase supply of the same voltage (240/415) it would draw 7 amps.


Why less current increases in transformer than in induction motor when load is increase?

The current flowing through a transformer's secondary is the current drawn by the load, so it will be exactly the same as the current flowing through your induction motor -assuming that is the load. Don't really understand the point of your question!


How do you increase parallel paths in lap wound motor?

parallel paths are conductors where current direction is same


What motor gets more heated single phase or three phase?

Your question is a little like asking, 'How long is a piece of string?'! Do the two motors have the same power rating, or are they different?The rate at which energy is used by any machine is defined by its power rating. If the power ratings of two different machines are the same, then both machines use energy at the same rate. So if a single-phase motor has the same power rating as a three-phase motor, then they will both use exactly the same amount of energy over a given period of time.So, if a single-phase motor has a greater power rating than a three-phase motor, then the single-phase motor will the greater amount of energy in a given period. On the other hand, if a three-phase motor has a greater power rating than a single-phase motor, then the three-phase motor will the greater amount of energy in a given period.


What is the role of split rings in electric motors?

Split rings keep the current flowing in the same direction or the motor turning in the same direction when using alternating current which reverses direction in its cycle..
