connects the brushes to obtain a good commutation.
its also a line joining two points at which no emf is induced.
DC = District of Columbia
Washington District of Columbia. DC.
because DC generator generates generally generate DC power but as it has slip rings which convert it into ac output power
Washington is located in DC. The District of Columbia.
Washington DC was named by george washington.
to avoid sparking ,since their is no e.m.f induced in magnetic neutral axis.
Electro Magnetic Field
ARMATURE REACTION in DC MachineAll current-carrying conductors produce magnetic fields. The magnetic field produced by current in the armature of a dc generator affects the flux pattern and distorts the main field. This distortion causes a shift in the neutral plane, which affects commutation. This change in the neutral plane and the reaction of the magnetic field is called armature reaction.
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.
Armature reaction is the phenomenon in DC machines where the magnetic field produced by the current flowing in the armature windings interacts with the main magnetic field produced by the field windings. This interaction can distort the main magnetic field, causing changes in the machine's performance such as voltage regulation and torque production. Measures such as interpoles or compensating windings are used to counteract the effects of armature reaction in DC machines.
A DC electromagnet works by passing an electric current through a coil of wire, creating a magnetic field. This magnetic field can attract or repel objects made of magnetic materials. Applications of DC electromagnets include use in electric motors, generators, relays, MRI machines, and speakers. They are also used in industrial applications such as lifting and moving heavy objects using magnetic cranes.
Friction and windage causes mechanical loss in DC machines.
because transformer in made inductorAlternative AnswerTransformers are AC machines, and do not work with DC. This is because they require an alternating current to set up an alternating magnetic flux which then induces an alternating voltage into its secondary. Remember, there has to be a changing magnetic flux and a conductor for an emf. to be induced into that conductor.
All DC machines are works based on the principle of FARADAY'S LAW OF ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTION.
If the synchronous motor is running near synchronous speed, it will begin rotating at synchronous speed when DC is applied to the rotor. Source: Electrical Machines, Drives, and Power Systems Theodore Wildi Section 17.3
The function of brush is to collect current from rotating commutator and supplies the current to external stationary load. The brushes of a DC machine are placed at neutral points because the current in the rotating part drops to zero at the neutral point. If brushes are placed in location other than the neutral points, then the current may be switched off and it causes magnetic field and it may also create voltage spikes and arc at brushes.
