DC Motor explained - in this video we look at how does a dc motor work to understand the basic working principle of a DC motor. We consider conventional current, electron flow, the winding, armature, rotor, shaft, stator, brushes, brush arms, terminals, emf, electromagnets, magnetic attraction as well as detailed animations for how the dc motor works.

    One of the easiest cheapest ways to support Engineering Mindset. Let the advertisements play through instead of skipping them. Every Ad played through generates revenue for the content producer on YouTube.
  • @triplep4567
    Always wanted to see an educational animated video like this on DC motors. Thanks!
  • @cnewland82
    Just a quick thanks for all your electrical/engineering content - These subjects can initially be difficult to get your head around, but your explanations and animations make learning the principles a whole lot easier. Excellent work and fantastic content!
  • I'm italian, and your explanation and graphics are much better than other italian channels i've ever seen. You're doing such a GREAT job! Thank you!
  • @leeranck249
    I love "The Engineering Mindset" . Your explanations are so clear and easy to understand. Thank you for doing this!
  • @oOcitizenOo
    Honestly, your videos are the best tutorial videos explaining the basics essential for everyone who starts learning the electricty/motors/other things related to this topic. Thanks for all the efforts you put in making this tuts!
  • @johnraley5713
    Modern cars have DC motors all over including starter, wiper motor, power windows and locks, etc.
  • @mspacone
    Amazing! You explain things so well. Thank you!
  • @fromatic2
    Man this was the best video of how dc motors are made and work I've ever seen thanks for sharing
  • @ColinRichardson
    I have watched a bunch of these videos before, but still like to watch more, because I seem to be sad like that. And as I always do, I always question certain things in my head, because I seem to be sad like that. Then I got to 7:50 and you started answering my questions.. Great video!!
  • @JD-mn8cx
    You did such a good job on this video, I think it’s great you took the time to ask the audience a question at 2:45! Keep up the good work !
  • I can't thank you enough for this video. Im a visual learner and this just helped me a lot as I'm a HVAC Technician and this knowledge is of course essential. Thanks again!
  • @dmdane
    Easily one of the best explanations I've ever seen. I'm glad I found this channel
  • Fantastic explanation of DC motors, I look forward to seeing more of your content
  • @eugeneruby433
    As a person with modest electrical knowledge, I've always been confused as to how you'd know if a given DC source was built for current to flow from positive to negative, or negative to positive. They're both used all over the place. This video taught me the terms "electron flow" and "conventional current." Confusion resolved! Holy crap, thanks so much! Just found your channel today and I'm going to watch every one of your videos. They're amazingly educational and we'll made.
  • @diegosoriavivas
    This videos are absolutely fantastic. It can be easily noticed how much time and effort you always put on all this. The information is very clear and complete. And the graphic explanation is very high quality. Things become much easier and learning speeds up a lot. Many thanks guys!
  • @Bad.ventures
    Wonderful job! I really appreciate what you do with the channel. Such important content with clear visuals and coherent explanation. You're making complicated engineering concepts accessible and easily understandable to the public. Hope you keep up the great work! 😉
