I know this is not an amps question but I know some of you will have an
answer for me.... And as usual this thread will probably go off on a
tangent finally ending up in name calling, etc..... Hi
Anyway my question is about electric motor design.
1.) What determines the voltage of a motor? I know it has to lie in how
the armature is wound as well as the number of poles, etc... but can someone
explain it to me why? i.e. Why is this motor for 7.2 volts vs. being for 28
VDC? Along with this, what kind of tolerances are allowed... How many volt
difference can a typical motor handle.....
2.) What is the difference in a motor designed for AC vs. DC?? How do you
come up with design parameters for winding the armature??? I.e. say for
torque vs. an armature for high rpm????
Anyway, thanks and if someone knows a link about DC/ac electric motor
design... that would be great!
