of course d.c series motor used in the train ,becouse of
this we want to the starting high torque and pulling the
havey load

Answer / jeykishan kumar.k

its an obvious answer: DC SERIES MOTOR

reason:- In trains there are many comartments full of
passengers,so during the starting it requires high starting
torque and in dc series motor torque T proportional to Ia
square and Ia=If,so if the motor started without any load
then the armature current will be very high which may
damage the motor.

Answer / parag bijlani

dc series motor due to its high statting torque. In fact ,
the dc series are never operated under no-load conditions,
they are always driven with the load.

Answer / gokulnath

 Both motors are used in trains. They are 
1. Induction motor
2. DC series motor. 

Reason is both the motors having high starting TORQUE.

Answer / rabi narayan behera

DC series motor is used in electric train.

Reason : - DC series motor has starting torque.

In electric train, every comartments are full of
passengers. So load is high.

We know that , In dc series motor , electric flux is small at
light load. but when load becomes heavy, the electric flux
increases, then speed of armeture decreases, then
the armeture torque increases.
This armeture torque
is directly propertional to the square of armeture
current.
Then due to this increase in torque , the speed of armeture increases.

At no load , armeture current increases highly for which
the dc motor will damage the dc series motor.

So dc series motor is used in electric train.

Answer / anand

DC SERIES MOTOR IS USED IN TRACTION MOTOR BECAUSE IT HAS
HIGH STARTING TORQUE AND IT CAN BE STARTED IN FULL LOAD..

Answer / dani

Old trains use DC series motors but since the 90's they are using asynchronous motors.

which motor is used in electric train...???????..

Answer / naresh

3phase induction motor becouse in dc motors there are
brushes so there will be brush loss i.e frictional losses
and also it require more maintanance hence we can use
3phase motors

and also there will be another alternative brushless dc
motors

Is This Answer Correct ?    1 Yes 1 No
