Controlling the Motor Speed

• Control the armature voltage, Va

• Control the armature current, Ia

Characteristics of DC Series motors

ECE 442 Power Electronics 14

Operating Modes

• In variable-speed applications, a dc motor may be operating in one or more of the following “Modes”

• Motoring

• Regenerative braking

• Dynamic braking

• Plugging

ECE 442 Power Electronics 15

Motoring Mode

“Back emf”, Eg is < supply voltage Va

Both Ia and If are positive

Developed torque meets load demand

ECE 442 Power Electronics 16

Regenerative Braking Mode

Motor acts as a Generator

Eg becomes > supply Voltage Va

Ia becomes negative

Kinetic energy of the motor is returned to the supply

ECE 442 Power Electronics 17

Dynamic Braking

Replace the supply voltage with a resistor

Power dissipated in the resistor rather than given back to the source

ECE 442 Power Electronics 18

Plugging

Reverse the armature terminals while running

Va and Eg act in the same direction

Ia is reversed, producing “braking” torque

Single-Phase DC Drive

Change Va by changing firing angle Inductor Lm is a “smoothing” Inductor to prevent
