AIM
To expose the students to the concepts of electromechanical energy conversions in D.C. machines and energy transfer in transformers and to analyse their performance.

OBJECTIVES
i. To introduce the concept of rotating machines and the principle of electromechanical energy conversion in single and multiple excited systems.

ii. To understand the generation of D.C. voltages by using different type of generators and study their performance.

iii. To study the working principles of D.C. motors and their load characteristics, starting and methods of speed control.
iv. To familiarize with the constructional details of different type of
transformers, working principle and their performance.

v. To estimate the various losses taking place in D.C. machines and transformers and to study the different testing method to arrive at their performance.
