Might a synchoronous motor equally well be called a synchoronous inductor?
No. An inductor by definition is a passive component that stores electrical energy in an magnetic field. It does not use real power (in any serious amount). A synchronous motor is not passive, and uses real power.
What type of dc motor is suitable for variable torque operation?
A shunt-wound DC motor can maintain its speed well when the load torque varies.
Can AC motor work on DC?
use a inverter to change dc to ac or couple it to a ac motor making it a motor generator. Comment: AC motors cannot run on DC since their principle of operation based on induction. There's an exception,however, and thats for Universal Series motor which can run on either AC or DC.
Why series motor used in traction application?
becoz of high starting torqe to move train
What is a DC shunt motor?
A DC shunt motor is a motor using DC supply with the the inductor connected parallel to the armature.
What are uses of bidirectional dc motor?
6V dc motor
What is the difference between a DC motor and a generator in terms of EMF?
During the operation of a DC motor, EMF is created across its terminals using an external source. Whereas, in a DC generator EMF is created across its terminal based on principle of dynamically induced EMF. So talking in terms of EMF, in DC motor EMF is consumed by the motor coil and utilized to rotate the axle. On the other hand, in DC generator EMF developed across coil is transfered to a load or a battery and consumed by them.
Can a DC dynamo act as a DC motor?
Yes it can and the otherway aroud a DC motor can be used as a dynamo
Can DC series motor work on ac and DC and why?
A dc series motor can work on dc and ac because dc motors are totally reversible.
How would you explain briefly DC valves?
A directional control(dc) valve is use for selectively connecting the supply passage to the return passage in bypassing relation to the hydraulic motor to interrupt operation of the fan.
How does a DC brushless motor work?
To state it simply, a DC brushless motor is not a DC motor. It is an AC motor with an inverter (or electronic commutator) on the front end to make the AC, so you can use a DC input.
Can a DC motor work on an AC supply?
There is a motor that is known as Universal motor which works on DC or AC .You might find one in a drilling machine or a domestic grinding machine .But there is a disadvantage ,in that there will be sparking at the commutator between the brushes and the commutator segments due to a shift in the magnetic neutral axis while on AC operation.
