Closed Loop Speed Control of DC Motor: Closed Loop Speed Control of DC Motor – The converters (rectifiers and choppers) are built using semiconductor devices, which have very low thermal capacity. Consequently their transient and steady state current ratings are same. The dc motors can carry 2 to 3.5 times the rated current during transient …
Chopper Control of Series Motor: Motoring : Chopper Control of Series Motor and va and ia waveforms will be same as shown in Fig. 5.41. Va is given by Eq. (5.113). However, e is not constant but varies with ia. Due to saturation of magnetic circuit, relationship between e and ia is non-linear. The approximation is already …
Chopper Control of Separately Excited DC Motor: Motoring Control : A transistor Chopper Control of Separately Excited DC Motor drive is shown in Fig. 5.41(a).

Drawbacks of Rectifier Fed DC Drives: Drawbacks of Rectifier Fed DC Drives are as follows: 1. Distortion of Supply: Source current of a rectifier has harmonics. In a weak ac source, with high internal impedance, current harmonics distort source voltage. Furthermore, temporary short circuit of lines during commutation of thyristors, causes sharp current pulses, which …
Rectifier Control of DC Series Motor: Single-phase controlled Rectifier Control of DC Series Motor are employed in traction. A single-phase half-controlled Rectifier Control of DC Series Motor is shown in Fig. 5.37(a). Equivalent circuit of motor is also shown. Since back emf decreases with armature current, discontinuous conduction occurs only in a narrow range of …
