Motor effect:
The motor effect is what causes a motor to spin and you see this action in a
single piece or copper wire. The motor effect is when a current carrying wire is in
a magnetic field experiences a force. The size of the force can increase the
strength of the magnetic field and also increases the current in the wire. The
magnetic field does not meet if the wires are parallel.
Armature, Brush, Commutator terms:
Brushless motor has permanent magnets that rotates around a fixed armature
(which is the rotating coils of a dynamo or electric motor) eliminating problems
associated with connecting current to the moving armature. An electronic
controller replaces the brush/commutator assembly of the brushed DC motor,
which continually switches the phase to the windings to keep the motor turning.
The controller performs similar timed power distribution by using a solid state
circuit instead of the brush/commutator system. Commutator is the attachment,
connected with the armature of a motor or dynamo.
means that too much heat weakens the magnets and therefore may damage the
windings insulation.
