jerryyu Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 how do you calculate how many revolutions a certain motor will make under a certain time frame and voltages? Or how do you calculate how much electricity will be produced from a dynamo under a certain amount of revolution? Or how much energy will be produced from an electric generator under (certain) motion? I want to figure those things out but don't know how to start. (sorry if I put this on the wrong post;it just seem more suitable than all the other one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danijel Gorupec Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 The answer to the first question depends on many things: motor construction/type, motor load... For example, number of revolutions of a brushed DC motor with permanent magnet is approx. proportional to the voltage supplied. On the other hand, the speed of an (non-loaded) asynchronous AC (cage) motor or a synchronous AC motor doesn't depent much on the voltage supplied, but on the frequency instead. In the second two questoions you ask about energy... this is easy... The efficinecy of a modern dinamo/generator is quite high and therefore the produced electrical energy / power is just a bit less than the mechanical energy / power you put into.
