Types of Load
(Cont.)
  • During changes in the speed, since only small deviations from a fixed value of the speed ?a occurs, the angular displacement can be represented by, ? = (?a + ??)t, then the variable portion of the load torque will be:

  • The term is very small and can be neglected.

  • Thus, restricting to small deviations in angle from the equilibrium position, a load torque which varies with the angular displacement of the shaft can be transformed to one which varies periodically with respect to time.
