Field Current of DC Shunt Motor Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Field Current = Supply Voltage/Shunt Field Resistance
I_f = V_sp/R_sh
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Field Current - (Measured in Ampere) - Field current refers to the electrical current that is supplied to the field winding or field coil of an electric machine, such as a generator or motor.
Supply Voltage - (Measured in Volt) - Supply Voltage is the input voltage being fed to the dc motor circuit. Supply voltage refers to the electrical voltage provided to an electrical device or system, such as an electric motor.
Shunt Field Resistance - (Measured in Ohm) - Shunt Field Resistance is a device that creates a path that has a low resistance for electric current to flow in a dc motor circuit.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Supply Voltage: 239 Volt --> 239 Volt No Conversion Required
Shunt Field Resistance: 159 Ohm --> 159 Ohm No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
