(16.1.30)andK 1 is a constant.
The first term on the right-hand side of Equation (16.1.27) is due to the ac source; the second
term is due to the back emf; and the third represents the combined transient component of the ac
source and back emf. In the steady state, however,
ia(α)=ia(π+α) (16.1.31)Subject to the constraint in Equation (16.1.31), the steady-state expression of current can be
obtained. Flux being a constant, recall that the average motor torque depends only on the average
value or the dc component of the armature current, whereas the ac components produce only
pulsating torques with zero-average value. Thus, the motor torque is given by
Ta=KmIa (16.1.32)To obtain the average value ofIaunder steady state, we can use the following equation:
Average motor voltageVa=average voltage drop acrossRa
+average voltage drop acrossLa

π[ia(π+α)−ia(α)]= 0 (16.1.36)Substituting, we obtain
Va=IaRa+Kmωm (16.1.37)for the steady-state operation of a dc motor fed by any converter. From Equations (16.1.34) and
(16.1.37), it follows that
