Direct Current Machines: Presented by Anant Ajithkumar

This document discusses direct current (DC) machines, including the differences between DC and AC generators, the commutator and brush arrangement, field poles, armature winding, and types of DC generators such as series wound, shunt wound, and compound wound. It also covers long shunt compound wound and short shunt compound wound generators as well as DC motors and the concept of back electromotive force or counter electromotive force.

• In a long shunt-wound generator, the shunt field winding is parallel with
both armature and series field winding. The connection diagram of the long
shunt-wound generator is shown below:
Short Shunt Compound Wound Generator
• In a Short Shunt Compound Wound Generator, the shunt field winding is
connected in parallel with the armature winding only. The connection diagram of
a short shunt-wound generator is shown below.
