The motor's windings draw extra power from the line when the motor starts to turn because it takes more force to get the rotor spinning than to keep it spinning.
DC Voltage
A DC motor can be built to operate on any voltage.
It is the process of conversion of generated ac voltage into the armature of a dc generator to dc voltage at the terminal of the dc generator by use of pair of brushes and commutator. OR It is the process of conversion of given dc voltage at the terminal of the dc motor to ac voltage in the armature windings in a dc motor by use of pair of brushes and commutator.
AC stands for alternating current, and DC is direct current. A motor is a device that uses electrical energy to spin. An AC motor uses AC voltage, and a DC motor uses DC voltage. http://ezinearticles.com/?The-Difference-Between-AC-and-DC-Electric-Motors&id=193767
Depends on the type of motor.
either a rectifier or a motor generator
he factors affecting the speed of a d.c. motor are, 1. The flux Φ 2. The voltage across the armature 3. The applied voltage V
For some equipment it doesn't matter, other types of equipment will be destroyed. For a simple electric heater or an incandescent bulb AC or DC are acceptable, provided the rms voltage of the AC is equal to the DC voltage. If the heater has a time switch, DC is unacceptable. A DC motor may or may not work with AC depending on its type and size. The commutator motor as used in vacuum cleaners is essentially a DC motor, but most types of AC motor are not interchangeable to DC. Electronic circuits usually required a DC supply and if AC is applied many of the components will be destroyed.

|o\/o| __V__ When adjusting DC voltage to a synchronus motor, make sure you correctly initialise the power sources main quantum form
Increasing flux, torque of the dc motor will be increased and speed of the dc motor will be decreased as speed of the dc motor is inversely proportional to that of the flux and the torque of the dc motor is directly proportional to the flux.
A DC motor generates power when it is rotating even when no supply is connected.
