What else can I help you with?
How can the field coils of a dc machine be connected with self excitation?
No
What is separately-excited generator?
in a separately excited generator the field coils are excited from a separate source like a dc battery may be or any other small generator. They are self starting generators.
How generator operates?
It works with two reactor coils for excitation of the field reactor coil , which in turn provides current to the field. The two reactor coils are connected in shunt and series with the output of the generator stator or armature ( from where load is connected).
What is inductor alternator?
The armature and the field windings of an inductor alternator are both accommodated in the stator. The three phase ac armature windings are distributed in small slots and the dc field windings are concentrated in two slots in the stator. Each field coil spans half the total number of stator slots. Armature coils are connected in star and field coils are connected in series. The rotor resembles a cogged wheel, with no winding. The core of the stator, which is completely embraced by the field coils, will retain a residual magnetism if excited once. When the rotor is rotated, the passage of the rotor teeth alternatively under the field offers a varying reluctance path for the flux produced by the field coils. This flux, which varies periodically, links with the armature coils and induces an emf in them. The frequency of the induced emf depends on the speed of the rotor. The magnitude depends on the speed of the rotor as well as on the level of excitation. The armature and the field windings of an inductor alternator are both accommodated in the stator.

What is cross field principle?
A seperately excitd 2pole dc generator consitstng of many cnoductors rotating in magneti2 field producd by field coils with no load connected to it
If a magnet is put inside one coil of wire a voltage is produced. What will happen if the magnet is put inside two coils of wire?
I would expect a voltage in both coils of wire.Note that, if the two coils are connected, the voltages (and corresponding currents) in the coils can interact. Also, if the two coils are NOT connected, they can STILL interact, since a current will produce its own magnetic field.
Can you use the separately excited shunt generator machine as self excited generator?
You have a seperately excited generator and then you have a shunt generator which has the field winding in parallel with the armature terminals. In DC machines a separately excited generator could be run as a shunt generator provided the field winding is designed to work on the generated voltage. A separately excited alternator needs a DC supply for the field winding. In car alternators that is taken from the main winding via a rectifier and a voltage regulator.
How do the coils affect the strength of the magnetic field?
The number of coils in a wire affects the strength of the magnetic field. More coils create a stronger magnetic field, while fewer coils create a weaker magnetic field.
What is field coils?
field coils generally refer to the electromagnetic coils on the stator ( the stationary part of an electric motor ). these generate the magnetic field(s) necessary to put the rotor ( the rotating part of the motor ) into motion.
Why does shunt generators produce only DC signal or emf?
This is in the wiring, the armature(s) field coils, etc, by the way if DC it would have permanent ( fixed) field magnets, not field coils. ac motors have Field coils, not to be confused with Field Amperage or Primary Coils- the latter being the (heart) of a transformer, consult Audels or similar technical shop manuals.
What is the difference between a seperately excited DC generator and DC shunt generator?
The difference between a separately excited DC generator and a Shunt DC generator is that for a separately excited Dc generator , the excitation field winding is supplied by an external source different from that supplying the armature while for shunt generator, the excitation field windind is connected in series with the armature and supplied by a single source.
What 3 factors that affect the output of a generator?
1:The strenght of the main magnetic Field. Determined by the strenght of the field magnets in a permanent magnet machine, or by the number of turns of wire on the field coils and the current through the coils in a wound field machine.2: The number of armature conductors connected in series, which cut the main magnetic field. Determined by the number of turns on armature coils and weather the armature is lap or wave wound, which determines the number of armature conductors connected in series.3: The speed at which the armature conductors cut the main magnetic field. The faster the armature cuts the magnetic Field, the higher will be the value of the voltage generated in the machine
