1. Definition and Function of EM
1) Electric motor: converts electrical energy to
mechanical energy,
2) Electric generator: converts mechanical energy
to electrical energy,
3) Transformer: convert Electric to Electric with
different level of Voltages and currents.

4. Rotating Machine Structure
Any rotating machine contains three different parts,
Electrical part: electrical wires especially prepared with forms
in suitable windings, and connected to electric power supply.
To decrease electrical loss: electrical winding resistance must
be very small,
Mechanical part: includes outer frame and steel shaft, which
coupled to the mechanical load. To decrease mechanical loss:
regular maintenance must be made,
Magnetic part: laminated sheet from good magnetic material, it
carry the magnetic flux. To decrease the magnetic losses:
Thickness of the Laminated sheets must be very small (<0.5
mm) ,.
All these above consideration will be increase the rotating
electric machine efficiency and performance.
10. The Basic structure of a rotating electric machine is a
cylindrical form and has 3 parts:
1.Stator and stator windings, (electric),
2. Rotor windings in the Rotor,
which stands on bearings
3. Air gap separate them,
4. Both internal stator and external rotor
surfaces are slotted,
5. The magnetic flux link both stator and rotor. (Magnetic part)
{The magnetic parts of both stator and rotor are manufactured of the
same ferromagnetic laminated sheets, as shown}, while, {The non
magnetic parts of the rotor is solid steel, and it is called, the “Mechanical
Shaft“. For stator, it is called “Yoke”}.

5. Power Transformer General Construction
The transformer core (magnetic part) is made from
laminated sheets has different configuration as shown.
16. If any parameter exceeds the listed value, it is abnormal condition
and overloaded. Overload is permissible within (+10%).
5. Name Plate: It lists the predesigned/nominal values of
machine including: Power (P or S), V, I, f, , n, t, as shown.
Operation within these limits is the normal operation.

17. This is a basic rule for the motor operation:
– IS produce stator magnetic field, BS
– Ir produce rotor magnetic field, Br
and given by: Td = k x Br x BS
In other words: both BS and Br
will be attracted (CW) or repulsed,
This make a torque, that causes
the rotor to rotate at a speed, .
Both fields are rotating and
the motor continuously runs.

6. Theory of Operation “Motor”

Theory of Operation “Generator”
As the generator’s conductors will be driven (rotate) by a
prime mover, (in a magnetic field), this will result an induced
emf (E), in these conductors, (induced emf by motion).
19. 7. Induced emf by induction (change in & i)
Magnet can be created by electric current and electricity can
be generated from magnet.
Faraday’s Law State that: When the flux linking a coil is changing, an
induced emf is produced and it is proportional to the rate of change of
the flux linkages. The flux linking is:
For AC:
It can be applied to the 2-windings of the transformer .

20. Induced emf by motion and induction
For the previous single excited magnetic system, the internal
induced emf (e) computed as follows:
This induced emf is dependent on: i) the excitation current,
ii) the speed of the movable part (v), and,
iii) the derivative of (L(x)).
For DC excitation:
For AC excitation:

21. How is the Electric Machine wounded
• Assume the total No of the conductors is = Z, which is wounded in series
parallel based on the require Vt (Ea) and PN ,
• Assume the induced emf (The voltage can a conductor withstand) is = ec ,
• Assume the current can a conductor carries is = ic (based on its CSA),
• Based on the required Vt , the No of conductors must be connected in
series is (Zp) and its given by, Zp = Vt / ec, or, Zp = Ea / ec. Also: Zp = Z /a
• Based on the required P, the machine current must be I (Ia) = PN / Vt ,
• The No of parallel paths, a = Ia / ic , or, a = Z / Zp

22. Induced emf by motion (DC Machines) Faraday’s Law

For one conductor:
For Zp-series conductors:
The total emf is:
Where: a, p = № of parallel paths and poles,
Z, Zp = Total and per path № of conductors,
φ, B = Flux per pole and flux density,
L, r = Length & mean radius, L = N2/, = l /A
Ap = area per pole,

For Z-conductors:
The conductor current is:
The developed torque is:
Where: Td = Developed torque, a, p = № of parallel paths and poles,
Z, Zp = Total and per path № of conductors,
φ, B = Flux and flux density per pole,

24. 8. The Primitive Machine (Generator)
The primitive machine is consisting of a hollow thin disc which is
internally isolated and coated with a metallic material at different
radii of r1 and r2 and brushes are put on the metallic surface. This
disc is rested vertically on a fixed stand. A magnetic pole is allocated
around this disc.
If the disc is running, the metallic surface will cut the magnetic field
lines and an emf is induced at the brushes, as shown.
Based on the Faraday’s law ( ), the incremental emf is:
The same applied for motor.
