Flywheel is used with D.C. compound motor to reduce the peak demand by the motor, compound motor will have to be_____________?
Correct answer: C. cumulatively compounded
- A. level compounded
- B. under compounded
- C. cumulatively compounded
- D. differentially compounded
Explanation
A cumulatively compounded motor combines the high starting torque of a series motor with better speed regulation, making it suitable for flywheel load equalisation. The series field aids the shunt field instead of opposing it.
