Electric machines To be uncovered 1. Electric machines 2. Principle of operation 3. Basic laws 4. Generator 5. Motor Introduction 23.1 Various forms of rotating electrical machines These can be divided into: – generators – which convert mechanical energy into electrical energy – motors – which convert electrical energy into mechanical energy Both types operate through the interaction between a magnetic field and a set of windings Electric Machine Electric machines can be divided into 2 types: AC machines DC machines Electric Machine All Electric machines have: Stationary members (stator) rotating members (rotor) Air gap which is separating stator and rotor The rotor and stator are coupled magnetically Principle Of Operation Of A d.c. Machine All motors and generators make use of two basic principles: – When two poles of a magnet are brought close together then there will be either a repulsion force or an attraction force – When current flows in a conductor, a magnetic field is created around that conductor and relative motion induces emf. BASIC LAWS Magnetic Field in a Coil When a current is passed through a coil a magnetic field is generated Faraday Effect Faraday Effect Basic Concepts Voltage – V – Potential to Move Charge (volts) Current – I – Charge Movement (amperes or amps) Resistance – R – V = IxR (R in =ohms) Power – P = IxV = I2xR (watts) Magnetic Induction and the DC Generator Faraday’s Law e = N dΦ / dt – e = the induced voltage in volts (V) – N = the number of series-connected turns of wire in turns (t) – dΦ/dt = rate of change in flux in Webers/second (Wb/s) e=BLv – B = the flux density in teslas (T) – L = the length of the conductor that is in the magnetic field in meters (m) – v = the relative velocity between the wire and the flux, in meters/second (m/s) Motor Physics Fleming's left-hand rule is used to determine the direction of the force on a current carrying conductor inside a magnetic field. Generator Physics Fleming's right-hand rule is used to determine the direction of the induced current when a conductor cuts through the magnetic field lines perpendicularly. Simple Generator D. C. Generator Principle of Operation Input: Rotational or Mechanical Energy Output: Electrical Energy When a conductor rotates in a magnetic field produced by poles, dynamical ly induced e.m.f is produced in it according to Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction Cond… Whenever a conductor is moved within a magnetic field in such a way that the conductor cuts across magnetic lines of flux, voltage is generated in the conductor. The AMOUNT of voltage generated depends on: i. the strength of the magnetic field, ii. the angle at which the conductor cuts the magnetic field, iii. the speed at which the conductor is moved, and iv. the length of the conductor within the magnetic field THE ELEMENTARY GENERATOR The simplest elementary generator that can be built is an ac generator. Basic generating principles are most easily explained through the use of the elementary ac generator. For this reason, the ac generator will be discussed first. The dc generator will be discussed later. An elementary generator consists of a wire loop mounted on the shaft, so that it can be rotated in a stationary magnetic field. field This will produce an induced emf in the loop. loop Sliding contacts (brushes) connect the loop to an external circuit load in order to pick up or use the induced emf. Elementary Generator AC generator with slip rings and brushes. Elementary Generator (Conclusion) Output voltage of an elementary generator during one revolution A Simple DC Generator 23.3 The alternating signal from the earlier AC generator could be converted to DC using a rectifier A more efficient approach is to replace the two slip rings with a single split slip ring called a commutator – this is arranged so that connections to the coil are reversed as the voltage from the coil changes polarity – hence the voltage across the brushes is of a single polarity – adding additional coils produces a more constant output DC generator with commutator and brushes.

DC Machine Construction Figure 8.4 DC motor stator with poles visible. DC Machine Construction Figure 8.5 Rotor of a dc motor. DC Machine Construction Figure 8.6 Cutaway view of a dc motor. DC Machines The rotor has a ring- shaped laminated iron core with slots. The commutator consists of insulated copper segments mounted on an insulated tube. Two brushes are pressed to the commutator to permit current flow. The brushes are placed in the neutral zone, where the magnetic field is close to zero, to reduce arcing. DC Machines The commutator switches the current from one rotor coil to the adjacent coil, The switching requires the interruption of the coil current. The sudden interruption of an inductive current generates high voltages. The high voltage produces flashover and arcing between the commutator segment and the brush. Voltage induced in the armature winding is alternating in nature The armature winding is connected to rotating commutator which rectifies the induced voltage to unidirectional voltage (but pulsating) The brushes which are connected to the armature winding, ride on commutator collect the current from the commutator and deliver it to the external load circuit Generated EMF Let φ Flux/Pole in Wb Z Total No. of Armature Conductors  No. of Slots No. of Conductors per Slot P  No. of Generator poles A  No. of Parallel Paths in Armature N Armature rotation in rpm E EMF induced in any parallel path in Armature Generated EMF E g EMF generated in any one of the parallel paths i.e E dφ Average EMF Generated/ Conductor  volt dt Now, Flux cut/conduc tor in 1 revolution , dφ φP Wb No. of Revolution s/sec N/60 60  Time for 1 revolution , dt  sec N Hence, according to Faraday’s Laws of electromagnetic induction, dφ EMF Generated/conductor  volt dt φP φPN   volt 60/N 60 φZN  P  Emf induced per parallel path E g    volt 60  A  Types of D.C.

Working principle The principle of working of a DC motor is that "whenever a current carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field, it experiences a mechanical force".

Parts of Generator Yoke Pole Shoe Armature Core Consists of slotted soft iron laminations. Purpose of laminations is to reduce eddy current loss.  Laminations are slotted to accommodate and provide mechanical security to armature winding and give shorter air gap flux to cross pole face and the armature teeth. Armature Winding Slot of armature core hold insulated conductors that are connected in suitable manner, known as armature winding. Here EMF is induced. The armature conductors are connected in series-parallel; the conductor being connected in series so as to increase the voltage and in parallel so on to increase the current. Windings are classified as i) Lap winding and ii) Wave Winding. Commutator Acts as mechanical rectifier that converts AC induced EMF in the armature winding into DC across the brushes. Made of copper segments insulated from each other by Mica sheets. Mounted on shaft of the machine. A four-pole DC generator
