This blog explains the DC motor characteristic curves, and how we can use them to select a suitable motor for an application. A distinction is made between a regular (brushed) DC motor and the brushless type. When we read the characteristic curves of a brushed DC motor, it is assumed that we need a certain torque to move a load.
Generally, three characteristic curves are considered important for DC motors which are, (i) Torque vs. armature current, (ii) Speed vs. armature current and (iii) Speed vs. torque. These are explained below for each type of DC motor. These characteristics are determined by keeping the following two relations in mind.
In order to effectively design with D.C. motors, it is necessary to understand their characteristic curves. For every motor, there is a specific Torque/Speed curve and Power curve. The graph above shows a torque/speed curve of a typical D.C. motor. Note that torque is inversely proportioal to the speed of the output shaft.
For any given torque, these curves show the corresponding rotation speed, from which we can subsequently determine the momentary current draw. The figure below shows the motor characteristic curves of a typical DC motor (brushed!).
Normally this current is many times full-load value. From speed-current characteristic curve it is obvious that the series motor is a variable speed motor i.e., speed varies with the variation in line current. With the decrease in load on a dc series motor, the speed increases and may become dangerously high at very light loads.
For every motor, there is a specific Torque/Speed curve and Power curve. The graph above shows a torque/speed curve of a typical D.C. motor. Note that torque is inversely proportioal to the speed of the output shaft. In other words, there is a tradeoff between how much torque a motor delivers, and how fast the output shaft spins.
