A permanent magnet motor is a type of electric motor that uses permanent magnets for the field excitation and a wound armature. The permanent magnets can either be stationary or rotating; interior or exterior to the armature for a radial flux machine or layered with the armature for an axial flux topology.
The motor speed varies as a non-linear function of load torque and armature current; current is common to both the stator and rotor yielding current squared (I^2) behavior [citation needed]. A series motor has very high starting torque and is commonly used for starting high inertia loads, such as trains, elevators or hoists. [2]
A piezoelectric motor or piezo motor is a type of electric motor based upon the change in shape of a piezoelectric material when an electric field is applied. Piezoelectric motors make use of the converse piezoelectric effect whereby the material produces acoustic or ultrasonic vibrations to produce linear or rotary motion. [ 85 ]
The motor from a 3.5 in floppy disk drive. The coils, arranged radially, are made from copper wire coated with blue insulation. The rotor (upper right) has been removed and turned upside-down. The gray ring inside its cup is a permanent magnet. This particular motor is an outrunner, with the stator inside the rotor. DC brushless ducted fan. The ...
The motor size constant and motor velocity constant (, alternatively called the back EMF constant) are values used to describe characteristics of electrical motors. Motor constant [ edit ]
A brushed DC electric motor is an internally commutated electric motor designed to be run from a direct current power source and utilizing an electric brush for contact. Brushed motors were the first commercially important application of electric power to driving mechanical energy, and DC distribution systems were used for more than 100 years ...
Electric Motor Chronology Selected Patents 1905, Alfred Zehden German, a feasible linear induction motor described in patent form for driving trains or lifts. U.S. patent 782,312: 1935, Hermann Kemper: German, built a working linear induction motor 1945–1949, Eric Laithwaite: British, first full-size working model of linear induction motor
Electromagnetic rotation experiment of Faraday, ca. 1821 [2] Working principle of a homopolar motor: due to movement of negative charges from center towards rim of the disk, a Lorentz force F L is created which brings the entire disk into rotation. The homopolar motor was the first electrical motor to be built.
