Answer:

Explanation:

The armature reaction in the motor affects the torque speed characteristics of the motor. Due to the armature reaction in the motor the shape of the torque speed characteristics will changes. The relation between torque and speed of the motor is given below.

…… (1)

where

Terminal voltage of the motor

Flux in the motor

Torque induced in the motor

Armature resistance

If a motor has armature reaction, as the load increases the flux weakening effect reduces the flux in the field winding. From equation (1), as the flux reduces, the speed of the motor increases at a given load over the speed it would run at without armature reaction.
