TYPES OF DC MOTOR

DC motors are classified based on the type of winding arrangement.

1.DC Series Motor

                          In this type of motor, the field winding is connected in series with the armature winding.Thus the same current flows through both the field and armature winding.

2.DC Shunt Motor

                         In this type of motor, the field winding is connected in parallel with the armature winding.So the current is divided between these windings and the applied voltage is same across both the field and armature winding.
