Assuming constant field current gives: p  kG = Ke


Where Ke is the back EMF constant
Previous Ea equation simplifies to: Ea = Ke  n

Motor Torque Equations
Developed torque related to the field strength and the armature current.

TD = k m  Bp  I a

Where: TD = developed torque


Bp = flux density of field poles
Ia = armature current
km = motor design constant

km depends on number of turns, effective conductor length, # poles, units etc.

Relate pole flux density to the motor field current….. Remember

p N  If N  If
Bp = and  p = Combining gives Bp =
A R A R

Motor Torque Equations
Since N, A, are set by design and reluctance is assume constant in linear part
of magnetization curve
N
Let kT = So now developed torque is given by
A R
TD = k T  I f  I a
Developed torque is the product of If and Ia

For constant field current, If K T = k T  If So…..

TD = K T  I a
Developed torque is proportional to armature current for constant field
current
Note: KT and Ke are numerically equal in SI units (N-m)
