Part 2: • " MOTORS AND GENERATORS " AC MOTORS ...
This 1961 U.S. Army training film covers the basic physics behind the function of DC motors and generators. This is demonstrated through progressively more complex animations that discuss the basics, such as the generation of electromotive force, the necessity of adding armatures and commutators, the need to add brushes, and necessary adjustments that need to be made to the neutral plane to avoid sparking which can damage the generator. Generators and motors are at the basis of most machines from simple things like field telephones to missile engines, so an understanding of them is essential for all engineers.
