Abstract :
A procedure is proposed for choosing the motor and specifying the motor-load coupling ratio in the design of DC servo systems. The procedure takes into account thermal effects as well as kinematic requirements. For this purpose, the concept of motor heat rate is introduced; it is used alongside the established concept of motor power rate. Heat rate is defined as the maximum copper-losses power divided by the motor electromechanical time constant. An illustrative example is provided.<>
