What happens if you short the shunt windings of a motor?
Answer:If the shunt winding is open the motor won't start, but if the shunt open while the motor is running, the motor will keep on running as if nothing went wrong, except if the wire of the winding get maniacally between the stator and the fields the motor can be damaged beyond repair. But normally the shunt windings is done with very thick conductors, so the chance that the shunt will go open is zero.
What are industrial applications of DC shunt motors?
Dc shunt motor is a constant flux and constant speed motor . So that it is used in centrifugal pumps ,machine tools ,blowers and fans etc.
Can a shunt motor be started without residual magnetism?
Yes. The field is provided by the shunt windings, which are connected in parallel with the supply. You may be confusing a motor with a generator, as you cannot start a shunt generatorwithout residual magnetism.
What will happen to a shunt motor if a shunt field coil opens while the motor is running under light load?
Motor will rotate at very high speed leading to destructionAnswer from Kinindia.com
What is constant speed DC motor?
Dc shunt motor is constant speed motor.Its speed is constant with armature current.This shunt motor is used in paper mills and drilling machines
