What is a DC generator the same as?
A DC generator, or "dynamo", is very similar to a DC electric motor but cannot be described as "exactly the same as a motor" because a DC generator's designed purpose is not to "use" electricity (which a DC motor does) but to "make", or "produce", electricity.
How does the starting of synchronous motor using dc generator as a load work-?
Starting of the synchronous motor using the DC generator creates a magnetic field.
What can change an ac current to a DC current?
rectifierac motor - dc generator set
Can you use a dc series motor as a prime mover for a dc generator. if not why?
A DC series motor would be ill-suited to this application. There would be times when the generator would be only lightly loaded and would present only a small mechanical load to the motor. Under these conditions the current in the field winding of the motor would become smaller and it would turn faster to generate the counter EMF necessary to balance its supply voltage. This could result in damage to both the motor and the generator. Please see the link.
How DC motor converted into DC generator?
Both dc generator & dc motor are the same and known dc machine.when we give an electrical supply to the dc machine a torque developed due to flux intraction & works as motor.but we used dc machine as a generator we rotate the rotor or prime mover by using external sourse.due to this the rotor conductors cut by the stationary magnetic field and electrical power is generated as per faradays law.Here the main difference is when we giving electrical energy to the rotor of dc machine produce torque(motor)but when we give the mechanical energy to rotor it produce electrical energy(generator)
What is the best dc motor to use when building a wind generator?
A brush-less DC motor (BLDC)
What is the difference between a DC motor and a DC generator Why can't you use a DC motor as DC generator?
A DC motor converts electrical energy to mechanical energy. The converted energy is provided to a mechanical load.A DC generator converts mechanical energy to electrical energy. The converted energy is provided to the electrical load (voltage, current referring load).A DC motor can be used as a DC generator and vice-versa.
How do you change over a ac motor to a dc generator?
Type your answer here... how can you change an ac motor to a dc generator
How do you convert a DC motor to a generator?
all the electrical machines can be run either as a motor or as a generator. but dc machines, A motor can be run as generator and vice versa with little modification
What are the Difference between dc motor and dc generator?
a motor Will do work by consuming power a generator is just the opposite
What is a DC generator the same as?

What is commutation in DC machines?
It is the process of conversion of generated ac voltage into the armature of a dc generator to dc voltage at the terminal of the dc generator by use of pair of brushes and commutator. OR It is the process of conversion of given dc voltage at the terminal of the dc motor to ac voltage in the armature windings in a dc motor by use of pair of brushes and commutator.
How do you make DC generator?
A DC generator is a DC machine that is driven by an external rotating force. It is constructed the same as a DC motor.
How DC generator is started?
by a hand driven motor or always it is connected with dc motor.
Can a motor works as a generator?
since the physical construction of a DC motor and DC generator is the same,it can work either way.in other words,yes a DC motor can work as a DC generator(if you drive it by a primemover it will produce electricity).however its not possible with all AC motors.
How does the starting of synchronous motor using dc generator as a load work-?
Starting of the synchronous motor using the DC generator creates a magnetic field.
Which device you use to increase voltage from 220V to 11000V?
If it is AC, a transformer. If it is DC, a motor generator.
