Question

why series generator characteristics are called rising characters ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

In these types of generators the field windings, armature windings and external load circuit all are connected in series as shown in figure below.

series wound generator

Therefore, the same current flows through armature winding, field winding and the load.

Let, I = Ia = Isc = IL

Here, Ia = armature current

Isc = series field current

IL = load current

There are generally three most important characteristics of series wound DC generator which show the relation between various quantities such as series field current or excitation current, generated voltage, terminal voltage and load current.
