Puttaparthi-515 134.
If there were no armature reaction, the generated voltage V0 would be constant as shown by a
straight line (red color) in the figure below.
There is a voltage drop of VAR because of the armature reaction. The internal characteristic
(Ea ~ IL) is also shown in the above figure represented by a blue color line. There is a voltage drop IaRa
across the armature resistance Ra. The generator, external characteristic (V ~ IL) is also shown by the
pink color line.
Terminal Characteristics of a Separately Excited DC Generator and Equivalent Circuit of a Shunt DC
Generator
The point P is called as Operating Point, which is the intersection between the generator,
external characteristic and the load characteristic given by the relation V= ILRL. This point P gives the
operating values of terminal voltage and load current.
