Title: Performance curves of a series DC motor predicted using parametric finite element analysis

Abstract

Direct-current motors with brushes are commonly used for portable tools and other appliances. A procedure is derived that uses finite element analysis to predict the performance curves of a typical series dc motor. A number of different analyses are made with parametric variations of current and rotor position. The computed torque-speed and current-speed curves are shown to agree closely with the measured curves.
