The rotational losses of a dc motor comprise

  • A.armature copper loss and brush contact loss
  • B.the shunt field copper loss alone
  • C.the stray load loss arising from armature reaction
  • D.iron loss together with friction and windage

Answer: D

Correct answer: iron loss together with friction and windage

The rotational losses are those that depend on speed and flux rather than on load current: hysteresis and eddy current loss in the armature iron, bearing and brush friction, and windage. They are measured together in a no-load test and treated as constant, in contrast with the armature copper loss, which varies with the square of the current.
