Introduction:
Iₐ=Iₘsinὠt
TꭃIₐ^2=Iₘ^2sin^2ꞷt=Iₘ^2/2(1-cos2ꞷt)

For ac supply torque frequency=2ꞷ
In case of Universal motor due to ac supply hysteresis and eddy current losses will occur and to minimise the field pole
must me laminated.
Fractional Kw motor makes use of salient pole design where large size motor makes use of uniform motor.
Draw back over
AC supply:
• Hysteresis and eddy current
losses will occur so effi ciency is
reduce.
• The power factor is poor due to
large reactance of fi eld and
armature winding.
• The sparking at brushes is
increased.
Phasor diagram:
R=rₐ+r₣
If there is no reactance the angle of I, V, E are same.
Characteristic:
• The speed fall rapidly with the torque in case of ac supply
because due to reactance the voltage drop is increased.
• Applications:
Universal motors find their use in various home appliances like vacuum cleaners, drink and food mixers, domestic sewing machine etc.
The higher rating universal motors are used in portable drills, blenders etc.
