DC Motor Sample Problem
Sample Problem.
A 250V Shunt Motor takes a total current of 20A. Resistance of the shunt field is 200ohm &
armature resistance of 0.3ohm. Find the current in the armature and the back emf.
Given:
IL = 20A Ish = V/Rsh Eb = V- IaRa
V = 250V
= 250/200 = 250 – 18.75(0.3)
Rsh = 200ohm
Ra = 0.3ohm Eb = 244. 375 V
Ish= 1.25 A
Eb = ?
Ia = ?
IL = Ia + Ish
20 = Ia + 1.25
Ia = 18.75 A

A 4-Pole, 250V series motor has a wave connected armature with 1254 conductors. The flux per
pole is 22mWb when the motor is taking 50A/ Armature resistance is 0.2ohm and series field
resistance is 0.2ohm. Claculate the speed.
Given:
Eb = øZNP
60A
P=4
Eb =V-Ia (Ra+Rse)
V=250V
A=2
Eb = 250-50(0.2+0.2)

Ø=22mWb
Eb =230V
Ia= 50A
Ra= 0.2ohm
Rse= 0.2ohm

Short Shunt Compound DC Motor.
Sample Problem.
A short shunt compound motor 220V, 10A current from supply has an armature resistance of
0.2ohm, series field resistance of 0.5ohm and shunt field resistance of 220ohm respectively.
Calculate the armature current and back emf.
Given:
Ia =? IL =Ia+Ish
10=Ia+0.98
Ia=9.02A
Sample Problem.
A long shunt 600V, 1200rpm DC motor has a series field winding resistance of 0.05ohm, a shunt
field winding of 200ohm & an armature resistance of 0.1ohm. The machine draws a 100A from
the supply calculate the back emf.
Given:
V=600V Ish=V/Rsh
V=Eb+IaRa+IseRse
Rse=0.05ohm Ish=600/200
Rsh=200ohm =3A 600= Eb+97(0.1)+97(0.05)
