Self-Excited Series DC Motor Calculator
Calculate key parameters for a self-excited series DC motor.
Using the formulas:
Field Current: \( I_f = \frac{V}{R_f} \) (since in series, \( I_f = I \))
Effective Flux: \( \phi = k_f \, I \)
Back EMF: \( E_b = V – I (R_a + R_f) \)
Motor Speed: \( \omega = \frac{E_b}{k\,\phi} \)
Developed Torque: \( T = k_t \, \phi \, I \)
* Enter values in SI units.
