The document discusses the universal motor. It defines a universal motor as one that can operate on both AC and DC power. There are two main types - uncompensated and compensated. Uncompensated motors have poorer speed regulation while compensated motors have characteristics that are similar on both AC and DC, making them better for higher speeds and capacities. Universal motors have simple construction, low cost, and high starting torque but poorer speed regulation compared to other motor types. They are commonly used in small household appliances.

Contents :- Introduction Windings of universal motor Types of universal motor Advantages of universal motor Disadvantages of universal motor Speed range and Direction reversal Application of universal motor Introduction :-
The motor which can be operated
satisfactorily on A.C. as well as D.C. supply is Universal motor. Mainly it is A.C. series motor. They are small fractional HP motor. Windings of universal motor:-
There are three types of winding used,
namely armature, main field and compensating winding. Out of which the compensating winding is used only for the compensated universal motor. All the windings are connected in series with each other since this is basically a series motor. Types of universal motor :-
Universal motor are of two types
namely: 1. Uncompensated type universal motors. 2. Compensated type universal motors. 1.Uncompensated type universal motors:-
•The construction of uncompensated universal motor is
shown in fig.(a) and torque speed characteristics is shown in fig.(b)
(a)construction (b) Torque speed chara. •Field winding produces flux. It is a stationary winding. Armature is a rotary winding. •Operating principle is same as that of dc motor. • These motor produce a high starting torque but their speed decreases with increase in load. Their speed regulation is not very good. •The torque speed characteristics of uncompensated universal motor differ a lot for DC and AC supply chara. •In non compensated type motor the capacity is low. Normally it is designed for two pole structure. •Pole and pole shoe both are laminated to reduce eddy current losses. •Armature is similar to D.C. motor armature. 2. Compensated type universal motors:- •In compensated type motor main field winding and compensating winding are distributed over entire stator. •Armature is similar to D.C. motor armature. •Fig.(c)shows the schematic diagram for the compensated type universal motor and fig.(d) shows its speed torque characteristics. •The motor chara. Can be modified as per requirement with the help of the compensating winding . main field winding
Armature
compensating winding
Fig.(c)
Fig.(d) •It is seen that speed torque chara. on d.c.anda.c. supply almost coincide. •Hence this type of motor is better suited even for higher speed. •Compensated motor are more expensive due to complicated construction. Hence they are preferred for higher capacity loads. Advantages of universal motor :-
1. Simple Construction. 2. Low Cost . 3. They can be operated on DC as well AC supply. 4. High starting torque.
DisAdvantages of universal motor :-
1. Poor speed regulation.
2. They are fractional H.P. motor. Speed range and Direction reversal :- •The full load operating speed of universal motor range between 3000to20,000 rpm. •Sometimes they are provided with the in built speed reduction gears for low speed application. • the direction reversal is achieved by reversing the connections to either the armature or field winding.
Application of universal motor:-
Universal motor are used mainly in domestic
application with fractional HP capacity rating. Typical applications are:- 1. Washing machines 2. Food processors. 3. Mixers and grinders. 4. Small drilling machine.
