- QUESTION 8 Consider the equations of motion of an armature controlled DC motor given by Jw(t)+bw (t) Ki(t) = -Tfriction - Tload (t) di (t) + Ri (t) + Kw (t) = Vin (t), dt where vin(t) is the input voltage and Tload(t) is the input load torque. The outputs are the armature current i(t) and the motor speed w(t). The steady-state response of motors are specified by nominal voltage, stall torque, stall current, no load speed, and no load current. At steady-state operation, the motor equations satisfy bo) -Ki =-T -T. fric load Ri +Kov_- 55 55 The stall torque is the load torque required stead-state speed of the motor is zero.
