what will happen if dc motor given ac supply..

Answer / abhishek ranjan

when we connect dc motor to ac supply. the moter will rotate
but high heat is devlops which can cause damage in armature
winding and brushes.......

what will happen if dc motor given ac supply..

Answer / jishnu

it depends on the winding connection with the armature
1. connected in series
the motor works normally as same
as the DC series motor

2.connected in parallel
the motor will not rotate because the torque
produced in the rotor due to ac is equal and opposite in
magnitude and direction hence resultant torque produced in
rotor is zero

what will happen if dc motor given ac supply..

Answer / parth belani

It will run. heating will take place which will damage the
motor if it is given AC supply for longer duration.
when AC supply is given to DC motor, the direction of the
magnetic field as well as the direction of the current in
the armature will be reversed in the second half of the AC
cycle. so, the direction of the torque will remain the same
in both the halves of the AC cycle. and motor will run.

what will happen if dc motor given ac supply..

Answer / makga

is either you will distroy the motor and protection device
of DC and AC are not same. torque of ac is lower than of DC
motor. if you do that you will burn the motor

what will happen if dc motor given ac supply..

Answer / a

Nothing will happen connect a DC motor to a cycle
dynamo.when ac wave will match the motor polarity +- it
will rotate in the direction it needs to CW or CCW as soon
as the wave will change it will try to move in the other
direction hence ... givein only some viberations....

what will happen if dc motor given ac supply..

Answer / b.dayakar reddy

>>When A.C. supply is given to a D.C. motor,




1)In case of Series connection of armature winding and field winding , it may run. 
2)But, In case of parallel connection , it won't rotate at all and will start humming and will create vibrations, as a torque produced by positive and negative cycle will cancel out each other. D.C. motor will be heated up.

Answer / raghavendra

It will rotate......
Universal Motor is an example for a DC motor works for AC
power

what will happen if dc motor given ac supply..

Answer / abdullah mohammed

if the protection does not work the motor will be damaged
if it work for long period

what will happen if dc motor given ac supply..

Answer / kaushik

In case of dc motors ,if provided with ac supply will run because in every halfcycle the polarity of field and armature winding will change simultaneously so that torque will be in same direction (regardless wether it is series or shunt motor) but the field winding will be hotter as they are not laminated (as they are designed for working with dc) so excess heat will produce due to eddy current.

what will happen if dc motor given ac supply..

Answer / osho katyal

It wont work since pole field mmf is stationary and ac
supply wont be able to lock itself with the sttaionary
pulsating field,so rotor cant move
