ELEC-E8405 Electric Drives Exercise 1

Problem 1: Steady-state characteristics of a DC motor


A DC motor with a separately excited field winding is considered. The rated armature
voltage is UN = 600 V, rated torque TN = 420 Nm, rated speed nN = 1600 r/min,
and maximum speed nmax = 3200 r/min. The losses are omitted.
(a) The flux factor kf is kept constant at its rated value. When the armature voltage
is varied from 0 to UN , the speed varies from 0 to nN . Determine the rated
armature current IN .
(b) A load is to be driven in the speed range from nN to nmax by weakening the flux
factor while the armature voltage is kept constant at UN . Determine the torque
available at maximum speed, if the rated armature current IN is not exceeded.
(c) Sketch the armature voltage Ua , flux factor kf , torque TM , and mechanical power
PM as a function of the speed, when the armature current is kept at IN .

Problem 2: Transfer functions


(a) A DC motor is considered. Derive the transfer function from the terminal voltage
ua (s) to the terminal current ia (s).
(b) A lumped thermal capacity model is considered:

1 dθ(t)
pd (t) = θ(t) + Cth
Rth dt
Derive the transfer function from the power loss pd (s) to the temperature rise
θ(s).

Problem 3: Properties of first-order systems


Consider a first-order system
K
G(s) =
1 + sτ
(a) What is the steady-state gain of the system?
(b) Derive the rise time from 10% to 90% for a step input.
(c) What is the 3-dB bandwidth α of the system?
