Question

What is damping torque & how it is classified?

Answer 1

Damping torque or damping forces is the speed deviation of an electromechanical torque deviations of a machine while the angle deviation is called synchronizing torque. If the damping force is too large, then the pointer will come to rest slowly and this is called as over damping.

The damping torque is proportional to the speed of rotation of the moving system, that is Tv = kv d dt θ Damping Torque. We have already seen that the moving system of the instrument will tend to move under the action of the deflecting torque.
