Series-connected
Rotor and Stator are
connected in series
Operates on either

The Commutator Bar and Brushes are a switch that
reverses the current in the armature coil as it rotates
5
Flux
Bunching
Force on conductor B is
upwards, rotation is
counter-clockwise (CCW)
+Positive Half-Cycle+
6
Flux
Bunching
Force on Conductor B is
upwards, rotation is
counter-clockwise (CCW)
-Negative Half-Cycle-
7
The direction of
rotation (and Torque)
is independent of the
polarity of the AC
source!
TD B p I a
Bp I a
TD I a2
TD = Developed Torque
Bp = flux density due to current in field
Ia = armature current
8
How do you reverse the direction of rotation?
Reverse the direction of the current in either the field or in the
armature, but not both!
