| Title | Performance Test of DC Motors |
| Objective | To develop a method for evaluating the performance of an electrical motor. The method will quantify the motor's transduction matrix which represents the dynamic charcateristics of the test motor in its operation range. |
| Scope | Motor performance is traditionally represented by a torque-rotational speed curve and a number of paprameters as often seen in specification sheets. The test for obtaining these paprameters is difficult to perform and requires specialied equipment. In MAE/NTU, the concept of transduction matrix was proposed to describe the dynamic properties of an electro-mechanical transducer in general. This 2 by 2 matrix represents the transducer's performance and its identification follows a relatively simple and standardprocedure. The method was successfully applied to piezoelectrical and electro-magnetic transducers during the past few years. In this project, in order to apply the method to small dc motors, a bench top tester containing a power sink, a torque meter, and a framework with adjustable height will be configured, prototyped, and tested. |
