What are the primary methods for controlling the speed of a DC motor
The primary methods include flux control, armature control, and voltage control methods.
How does the flux control method work for DC shunt motors
It involves varying the field current to adjust the magnetic field strength, thereby controlling the motor speed.
What is the armature control method?
It involves varying the voltage applied to the armature to control the speed of the motor.
What are the advantages of using the Ward-Leonard drive system?
It provides smooth, wide-range speed control with high efficiency and reliability.
What is a field diverter in speed control of series motors?
A variable resistor connected in parallel with the series field winding, used to adjust the field current and motor speed.
