Where:
Value of k
k = 33,000 if the torque is in pound-foot (lb-ft)
= 44,760 if the torque is in Newton-meter (N-m)
Sample Problems
1. A 440-V, shunt motor has armature resistance of 0.8 Ω and
field resistance of 200 Ω. Determine the back emf when
giving an output of 7.46 kW at 85 per cent efficiency.

Armature Torque
Armature Torque (Ta) – it is the torque developed by the
armature of a motor at a certain speed. It is also called
as developed torque or gross torque.
