DC motors come in many forms, but they all have the same job: turning electrical energy (DC) into mechanical energy. Although DC motors have a common operating principle, many applications ...

As you can see, there are a variety of electrical configurations for a DC machine. For the purpose of this article, we will stick with the series- and shunt-wound DC motor. Please note that the ...

This gives the user full control over the complexity of the motor geometry they wish to design. The MotorSolve software suite supports brushless dc/PMAC (BLDC), induction machine (IM), switched ...

Typically, engineers can choose between direct-current (DC) or alternating-current (AC) motors. Machine Design has covered the difference between basic types of motors in the past. The latest ...
