Explain different types of d.c motors? Give their applications..

Answer / Amitabh Singh

Different types of DC motors include series, shunt, and compound motors. Series motors have the field windings connected in series with the armature and are characterized by high starting torque and low speed. They find application in hoists, cranes, and elevators. Shunt motors have the field windings connected in parallel with the armature and provide a constant torque at varying speeds. They are used in fans, blowers, and conveyor systems. Compound motors combine both series and shunt configurations to achieve a balance between starting torque and running speed. They are useful in rolling mills, lathes, and power factor improvement equipment.
