Remedies for Armature reaction?
Since an armature is wound with coils of wire, a magnetic field is set up in the armature whenever a current flows in the coils. This field is at right angles to the generator field, and is called cross magnetization of the armature. The effect of the armature field is to distort the generator field and shift the neutral plane. The neutral plane is the position where the armature windings are moving parallel to the magnetic flux lines. This effect is known as armature reaction and is proportional to the current flowing in the armature coils. The brushes of a generator must be set in the neutral plane; that is, they must contact segments of the commutator that are connected to armature coils having no induced emf. If the brushes were contacting commutator segments outside the neutral plane, they would short-circuit "live" coils and cause arcing and loss of power. Armature reaction causes the neutral plane to shift in the direction of rotation, and if the brushes are in the neutral plane at no load, that is, when no armature current is flowing, they will not be in the neutral plane when armature current is flowing. For this reason it is desirable to incorporate a corrective system into the generator design. These are two principal methods by which the effect of armature reaction is overcome. The first method is to shift the position of the brushes so that they are in the neutral plane when the generator is producing its normal load current. in the other method, special field poles, called interpoles, are installed in the generator to counteract the effect of armature reaction. The brush-setting method is satisfactory in installations in which the generator operates under a fairly constant load. If the load varies to a marked degree, the neutral plane will shift proportionately, and the brushes will not be in the correct position at all times. The brush-setting method is the most common means of correcting for armature reaction in small generators (those producing approximately 1000 W or less). Larger generators require the use of interpoles.
Does DC generator produce a smooth DC voltage output?
A DC generator typically produces a pulsating output voltage rather than a perfectly smooth DC voltage. This is due to the nature of its operation, where the generated voltage fluctuates with the rotation of the armature within the magnetic field. To achieve a smoother DC output, additional components such as filters or voltage regulators are often used to reduce the ripple and stabilize the voltage.
What is demagnetising effect of DC generator?
demagnetising effect of dc generator is to reduce main field flux there by reduction in generated voltage.
What would happen if a shunt-excited DC generator was operated at too low a speed?
A shunt generator is a type of DC generator that does not use a permanent magnet. Reducing the speed of the generator will reduce the output, but not the load the generator requires because the currents in the parallel branches are independent.

The armature of DCgenerator is laminated to?
Reduce the eddy current less
What is the use of interpoles in dc machine?
Interpoles are similar to the main field poles and located on the yoke between the main field poles. They have windings in series with the armature winding. Interpoles have the function of reducing the armature reaction effect in the commutating zone. They eliminate the need to shift the brush assembly.
What is the main material in a motor armature?
Instead of a single piece of metal, the armature is made up of laminated thin metal plates. The thickness of the laminations is determined by the supply frequency. They are approximately 0.5mm thick. For the armature core, silicon steel laminates are used to reduce eddy currents and hysteresis losses.

What is demagnetising effect of DC generator?
demagnetising effect of dc generator is to reduce main field flux there by reduction in generated voltage.
Why armature core is laminated in dc machine?
to reduce the eddy current loss in the machine
What does catalysts and rate of reaction do?
Catalysts either accelerate or reduce the rate of the reaction.
Why does the rate of a reaction speed up?
Catalyst will reduce the activation energy of the reaction, thereby the speed of the reaction (or the rate of the reaction) increases.
