How an electric motor from electric generator?

Answer 1

You can use your permanent magnet electric motor as a generator. All you have to do is spin the shaft of any permanent magnet electric motor with an external power source, and your motor will turn into a generator. You can create an electric current with almost any motor if it is properly wired and used according to precise guidelines. As a result, you can't simply reverse the components of a generator to turn it into a motor. Brushed and brushless DC motors can both be used to generate electricity.

Answer 2

i believe that you can turn an ac electric motor into a generator only if you use one ore more capacitors to excite the motor and to store a charge ,unless you are using a dc motor which consist of a rotor and a stator which is no more than a coil spining in a permanent magnetic field,if you use a power regulator it,s much to complicated,so i think that if you use some capacitors to store a charge,i believe it will be enought excitation to create a magnetic field into the motor,if i,m wrong i,m waiting to be corrected

Answer 3

The simple answer is: You start with a motor with permanent magnets and then simply turn the output shaft by hand and you will get current from the power input of the motor. However, there are AC and DC motors. Whether you are using a DC motor to charge a battery or an AC motor to power a tool, you will need to turn it at a precise speed to get results. Specially with AC, because you need to worry about frequency (60 hertz ). You also must turn it in reverse. Maybe somebody can expand on this answer.

Answer 4

Some types of dc electric motors can be used as generators of dc current if they are driven by another source of rotating power, such as a diesel or gas engine or an ac electric motor.

But many other types of electric motor - such as, for example 3-phase ac squirrel cage induction motors - cannot be used that way.

Answer 5

Electric motors take electric energy and turn it into kinetic energy

Generators and alternators take mechanical energy n turn it into electric energy

Answer 6

just do revers process of the motor.
