  2. Motor constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_constants

    Now, if this motor is fed with current of 2 A and assuming that back-EMF is exactly 2 V, it is rotating at 7200 rpm and the mechanical power is 4 W, and the force on rotor is = N or 0.0053 N. The torque on shaft is 0.0053 N⋅m at 2 A because of the assumed radius of the rotor (exactly 1 m).

  3. Inrush current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inrush_current

    Inrush current, input surge current, or switch-on surge is the maximal instantaneous input current drawn by an electrical device when first turned on. Alternating-current electric motors and transformers may draw several times their normal full-load current when first energized, for a few cycles of the input waveform.

  4. Universal motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_motor

    The universal motor is a type of electric motor that can operate on either AC or DC power and uses an electromagnet as its stator to create its magnetic field. [1] It is a commutated series-wound motor where the stator's field coils are connected in series with the rotor windings through a commutator. It is often referred to as an AC series motor.

  5. Electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_motor

    An industrial electric motor . An electric motor is a machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of torque applied on the motor's shaft.

  6. Field coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_coil

    AC induction motors also use field coils on the stator, the current on the rotor being supplied by induction in a squirrel cage. For generators, the field current is smaller than the output current. [note 2] Accordingly, the field is mounted on the rotor and supplied through slip rings. The output current is taken from the stator, avoiding the ...

  7. DC motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_motor

    A DC motor is an electrical motor that uses direct current (DC) to produce mechanical force. The most common types rely on magnetic forces produced by currents in the coils. Nearly all types of DC motors have some internal mechanism, either electromechanical or electronic, to periodically change the direction of current in part of the motor.

  8. Q factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_factor

    The Q factor is a parameter that describes the resonance behavior of an underdamped harmonic oscillator (resonator). Sinusoidally driven resonators having higher Q factors resonate with greater amplitudes (at the resonant frequency) but have a smaller range of frequencies around that frequency for which they resonate; the range of frequencies for which the oscillator resonates is called the ...

  9. Traction motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traction_motor

    [citation needed] Calculation: 0.9 × 0.9 = 0.81 Individual traction motor ratings usually range up 1,600 kW (2,100 hp). Another important factor when traction motors are designed or specified is operational speed. The motor armature has a maximum safe rotating speed at or below which the windings will stay safely in place.
