La capacité de contrôler la vitesse d'un moteur à courant continu est essentielle dans de nombreuses applications, de l'automatisation industrielle aux véhicules électriques. L'une des méthodes les plus courantes et les plus simples pour y parvenir est le contrôle de la tension d'induit. Cette technique implique la variation de la tension appliquée à l'enroulement d'induit tout en maintenant la tension de l'enroulement d'excitation constante.

[Image of a basic circuit diagram with a DC motor, power supply, and a voltage divider]
3. System Description:
The voltage divider circuit would be used to adjust the voltage applied to the motor armature. By changing the resistance values of the voltage divider, we can control the voltage supplied to the motor. This voltage directly controls the motor speed, with higher voltage resulting in higher speed and vice versa.
The system would likely have a control knob or a switch connected to the voltage divider, allowing the user to manually adjust the motor speed.
