THEORY:
In Dynamic Braking, motor armature is first disconnected from the supply circuit and then
it is switched across a resistor with field current left unchanged. The counter e.m.f retains the same
polarity as it is during the motor mode of operation since voltage reduces to zero. The armature
current during braking dynamic braking is,
Ia= -Ea/(Ra+Rb) = -Ea/R
Where, Ra = armature resistance, Rb = external resistance.
Since field flux Φ is in the same direction as before and armature current Ia has reversed the
torque. It begins to operate as the generator and electrical braking takes place. The K.E stored in
the rotating parts of the motor system is now converted to electrical energy and dissipated as heat
in braking resistor Rb and armature circuit resistance.
The dynamic braking torque is given by:
Tb = Km ×la = -(Km×Ea)/R = -(Km²×Wr)/R [since Ea = Km×Wr]
Since the field current remains constant
Km = KΦ
(Wr/Tb) = (-R/Km²)
Equation shows that speed torque characteristics during the dynamic braking is a straight
line and it passes through origin because when Tb = 0, Wr = 0. Greater the value of R, Greater is
the slope of Wr-Tb characteristics.
PROCEDURE:
Make connections as shown in fig.
Rheostat used for braking is adjusted for maximum value of resistance of 300Ω.
Initially the switch is open. It is closed on armature side( I )
Start the motor with 3-point starter.
Adjust voltage to 250 volts and then change the position of the switch from ON to OFF
and measure corresponding time to stop the motor.
Same procedure is repeated by varying the value of braking resistance RB. The switch
must be brought back to original and measure the corresponding time to change the
direction of rotation

THEORY:
Braking of D.C motor by plugging is achieved by reversing polarity of the voltage applied
to the motor armature. When polarity of the voltage applied to motor armature is reversed as
shown in fig. braking action by counter current braking come into play. It may be seen from fig.
that with sudden reversal of armature terminal voltage Vt, the total voltage in the armature circuit
increased to ( Vt+Ea) and there is therefore a sudden in rush of armature current. This in rush can
be however be limited by planning an external resistance Rb in series with armature circuit as
shown. The voltage equation for armature circuit after plugging is
-Vt = Ea+Ia(Ra+Rb)
Ia = -(Vt+Ea)/(Ra+Rb)
Since the sign of armature circuit is reversed with the direction of field current remaining
unchanged, the torque developed by the motor is reversed and braking action takes place. The
braking torque Tb, after plugging is,
Tb = KΦIa = KmIa = -Km[(Vt+Ea)/(Ra+Rb)]
From motor operation the natural speed torque characteristics is AC with no external resistance in
the armature circuit. With external resistance Rb in series with the armature circuit, the speed
torque characteristics for motor is AC.

THEORY:
In this method any two supply leads are interchanged so that the direction of rotating field
gets reversed. A forward rotating field is one that rotates in the direction of rotor & soon after the
interchange of any two leads, this field becomes backward rotating field. In polyphase I.M
electromagnetic torque is developed in the direction of rotating field. So backward rotating field
torque T1 is opposite to the rotor rotation & braking torque so developed brings the rotor to stop
quickly. The supply terminals should be disconnected as soon as the motor comes to stop
otherwise motor would start to run in opposite direction.
Figure 1 shows the speed-torque characteristic of SCIM during plugging. For load torque
TL, A is the operating point when the two supply leads are interchanged. The initial braking torque
is TB=load torque, TL=backward torque & operating point A shifts at once to point B in the
second quadrant. Braking action now takes place along BC. At point C the supply should be
disconnected to stop the motor otherwise the motor starts accelerating in the reverse direction
along the curve CD & point D in the third quadrant is the final operating point. If any two supply
leads are again reversed, the operation shifts from D to point E in the fourth quadrant. Braking
action now takes place along EG. If the supply is not switched off at point G, the final operating
point is A as before.
Figure 2 shows the speed-torque characteristic of wound rotor I.M during plugging. At the
time of plugging an external resistance is inserted in the rotor circuit for current limitation & also
to increase the backward rotating torque. For load torque TL, A is the operating point with OB as
rotor speed. When two supply leads are interchanged & at the same time external resistance is
inserted in the circuit. The initial braking torque is TB=load torque + backward torque & operating
point shifts to point C in the second quadrant. Braking action now takes place along CD.
At point D the supply should be disconnected to stop the motor. In case supply is not
switched off the motor starts accelerating in reverse direction along curve DE & E is the final
operating point in third quadrant. If the external rotor circuit resistance is now removed, point E
shifts at once to point G & then to point H along the curve GH. Point H corresponds to the M
rotation in reverse direction with rotor speed OK=OB & load torque TL. If any two supply leads
are reversed again with simultaneous introduction of external resistance in the rotor point H shifts
to point L in fourth quadrant & the motor operates along the curve LM. lf supply is not
disconnected at point M the motor operation continues along the curve MN with final operating
point at N, If the external rotor circuit resistance is now removed, point N shifts at once to point Q
& then to point A along the curve QA. In this manner electrical braking by plugging of N can be
achieved. Plugging involves heavy loss of power. The motor can be brought to rest quickly.

THEORY:
Most of the AC motors run at a speed which is determined by the frequency of AC motor
supply. The speed of synchronous motor is completely determined by the stator frequency but
induction motor run synchronously at as speed which is 5% of the synchronous speed on fixed
frequency supply the torque developed by induction motor at a given slip varies approximately as a
square of applied voltage and steady state operation occurs when motor torque balances the load
torque and applied voltage and continuous speed control may be obtained by step less adjustment
of stator voltage without alteration in stator frequency.
As the stator voltage is reduced the rotor speed decreases, but the maximum torque
available from the motor also decreases and speed range is limited with a constant torque load. A
high resistance motor modifies the torque-speed characteristics and wide range speed control is
possible but resistance losses are extensive and operating efficiency is very low particularly at
reduced speed. The stator voltage is reduced by connecting variable external impedances between
stator terminals and AC supply mains Suitable reactance have been used to perform this function.
Thyristor circuit is more compact despite the heat sink requirement and it's weight is considerably
low. It also has a higher efficiency. Compare with time lag of 0. 1 sec in addition Thyristor units
from different manufactures are interchangeable whereas saturable reactor characteristics vary
considerably. The basic thyristors circuit which is employed in the series AC controller. This
consists of two thyristor connected in back to back and triggered symmetrically at identical points
in their anode to cathode voltage cycles. By using this circuit in in stator leads and controlling
conduction periods of thyristors. The effective voltage delivered to the motor can be varied from
zero to full supply voltage, the motor is subjected to chopped sine wave voltage and supply current
also has high harmonic content but satisfactory operation has been achieved with small and
medium sized motors upto 100 H.P. Stator voltage control eliminates the complex circuitry of
various frequency schemes and consequently is cheaper to install. However the operating
efficiency is poor, operation is necessary at low speeds to avoid overheating due to excessive
current and reduced ventilation stator voltage control is widely used for fractional HP drives and so
far AC power cranes and hoists where large torques at high slip is only demanded for intermittent
portions of duty cycle.
The two thryistors are connected in inverse parallel or back to back and trigger alternately
at identical points in their anode to cathode voltage cycle. A symmetrical alternating voltage is
hence applied across the load. This voltage waveform has no DC component. But odd harmonies
are present for inductive load and R-L-E load. The load current flow is again maintained by
induced EMF for interval of the supply voltage, has reversed its polarity. The duration of this
interval is determined by load P.F. and typical waveforms are shown in figure. If the phase angle
for normal sine operation of load is determined by ø. The load current and voltage are sinusoidal
for any firing delay α which is less than ø because the incoming thyristor is already triggered
before the natural reversal of current direction takes place. However, if α exceeds ø, the current
flow becomes discontinuous pulse and load currents are non-sinusoidal. The current pulses
decreases in amplitude as α is increased and zero load current is obtained when α=π. Variation of
firing angle α controls average power delivered to the load by the AC supply.

INTRODUCTION:
This unit is an exp D.C to D.C chopper circuit for speed control of a separately excited or
permanent magnet type of 0.5 HP D.C shunt motor. It accepts 230 V A.C mains input for
conversion into unregulated D.C output which serves as D.C input to chopper. Power MOSFETs
are used as switching elements in chopper which provides 2 quadrant operations with facility for
electrical braking of motor.
THEOROTICAL BACKGROUND:
Efficient speed control of D.C motors operating from D.C supplies is today accomplished
with switching characteristic circuits formed using forced commutation thyristors or bipolar
transistors. Battery operated systems rated at hundreds of amperes are in common use in truck &
electrical vehicle controllers. In this type of application power MOSFETs offer some advantages
like very high gain, very rugged performance & very fast switching speed. MOSFET is a voltage
driven device. Gate is isolated electrically from the source by a layer of SiO2 order of n amperes.
Thus making the D.C gain in the conventional sense used for a bipolar transistor tending to almost
∞.
In order for motor to regenerate, it is necessary for it to have either a shunt or separately
excited field. Series connected field is not feasible unless the connections to it are reversed for
regenerative mode of operation which is not practically convenient.
Simplified functional diagram of the control scheme is shown in fig. 4. Control system has
an outer voltage feedback loop which compares the motor voltage with a reference voltage
obtained from speed setting pot (10 turn) & processes the resulting error signal to keep the motor
voltage essentially equal to reference value.
As inner control loop regulates the current level required to satisfy the load on motor. The
current control loop also determines the characteristic switching frequency by regulating peak to
peak ripple current between present upper & lower limits.
Current control loop also provides instantaneous limiting of peak HEXFET & motor
currents. This is accomplished simply by setting max limit on the current reference signal &
clamping it to this level.
The reference voltage is compared to voltage across the motor & the error signal is
amplified through voltage error amplifier. The output of amplifier is the current reference signal.
Voltage error signal is also fed into the motor regenerate comparator.
When reference current is –ve, the control circuit is demanding regenerative current. The
output of motor regenerate logic comparator is –ve. The regenerative signal has logic 1 value,
while motor signal has logic 0. Switches B & C are closed while A & D are open.
The motor regenerate logic comparator has a built in hysteresis to prevent unwanted
bouncing back & forth between regeneration & motoring modes of operation at low current levels.
Consider motoring mode operation. The +ve current reference signal is compared with a
signal representing the actual motor current. The difference is amplified through current error
amplifier. Output of this amplifier is fed through switch A which is closed to the motor
comparator.
Also note that in this mode switch D is closed, applying a steady –ve input to regenerate
comparator & shutting off the gate drive signal to the regenerative HEXFET.
In regeneration mode switches B & C are closed. A continuous +ve signal is applied to
input of motor comparator, shutting off the drive to motoring HEXFET. The regenerative
HEXFET is now switched ON. Whenever the regenerative current from motor falls from a present
value below the reference value & off whenever the motor current rises to present amount above
the reference value.
OPERATING CAUTIONS:
1. Use unearthed oscilloscope. Always use the unearthing oscilloscope socket for
oscilloscope.
2. Remove all links before starting operation.
3. Use double beam oscilloscope for observing 2 waveforms simultaneously only when they
have 1 end in common in turn connected to oscilloscope.
4. Before putting short links of the motor & generator sockets, make sure that both the motor
& generator signals are not present simultaneously as this results in short circuit & hence in
destruction of MOSFETs.
5. Speed control of pot is a 10 turn helipot.
6. Reference socket on the circuit board should not be used while observing any of the load
waveforms. It is for seeing drive signals only.
7. Chopper power circuit will not work unless the S-L Red-Black sockets are shorted through
series lamp as directly.
