- Some applications require the control the speed DC MOTOR - Some applications require the control the torque - In order to control the torque or speed we need to know the T- characteristics of the motor and the mechanical load Intersections between the two characteristics will determine the operating point

Three possible methods of speed control: Field flux Armature voltage Vt Armature resistance Ra
Varying Vt TL Vt↓ Te Requires variable DC supply
Varying Ra Ra↑ TL Te Simple control Losses in external resistor
Varying ↓ TL Te Not possible for PM motor Maximum torque capability reduces
Armature voltage control Field flux control Te Maximum Torque capability base Method of speed control in DC motor drives Armature voltage control : retain maximum torque capability Field flux control (i.e. flux reduced) : reduce maximum torque capability For wide range of speed control 0 to base armature voltage, above base field flux reduction

Starter in DC Motor • At stand-still, w = 0 Ea = 0 Ra Ia + Vt – eg, Vt = 100, Ra = 0.1 Ia = 1000 A !
Starter in DC Motor • We can limit Ia at start-up by: 1) Controlling Vt using variable supply – e.g. using power electronics converter 2) Adding external resistor known as starter Ra Ia + Vt – + Ea – When Ea = 0 Rst • As speed builds up (so too Ea), Rst is gradually reduced
