The DC Compound Generator EQUIPMENT REQUIRED Refer to the Equipment Utilization Chart, in Appendix A of this manual, to obtain the list of equipment required to perform this exercise. It is the purpose of this experiment to show these major points.

This type of generator has poor regulation, but is useful in applications such as welding and arc lights where maintaining a constant output current is more important than a constant output voltage. The combined magnetic field strength remains almost unchanged and little change in output voltage will take place as the load goes from no-load to full-load If the series field is connected so that the armature current flows in such a direction as to oppose the shunt field, we obtain a differential compound generator. With the proper number of turns in the series winding, the increase in magnetic strength will compensate for the decrease caused by the shunt winding. But if the same increase in load current is made to flow through the series field winding, it will increase the strength of the magnetic field. Thus, when the load current increases the current through the shunt field winding decreases, reducing the strength of the magnetic field. (This is particularly true of internal combustion engines and induction motors) The two field windings (shunt and series) on the compound generator are connected so that their magnetic fields aid each other. c) The running speed of the driving motor may change with load. b) The armature voltage drop (fx R losses) from no-load to full-load. Their poor voltage regulation is due to three factors: a) The magnetic field strength drops as the armature voltage drops, which further reduces the magnetic field strength, which in turn reduces the armature voltage, etc. To obtain the armature voltage vs armature current load curves for both generators DISCUSSION Self-excited shunt generators have the disadvantage in that changes in their load current from no-load cause their output voltage to change also.
