Characteristics Of DC Shunt Motor Characteristics Of DC Shunt Motor Circuit diagram of DC Shunt Motor is shown in below image. Circuit Diagram of DC shunt motor We know that torque is directly proportional to the flux per pole and armature current. So, Ta proportional to Φ and Ish According to circuit diagram Ia = IL - Ish Ish = V / Rsh V = Eb + Ia Ra There are three characteristic s of DC Shunt Motor, which is mentioned below. Torque - Armature current ( T / Ia ) characteristics Speed - Armature current ( N / Ia ) characteristics Speed - Torque ( N / T ) characteristics 1. Torque - Armature current characteristics We know that field current is remains constant because of supply voltage is constant in dc shunt motor. Here , for dc shunt motor flux is also constant because supply voltage is kept constant So, Ta α Ia So torque is directly proportio...
