You can use a transformer to increase the current. Note that this will also decrease the voltage. The total energy will not increase; it will decrease slightly, due to losses in the transformer.

How can you increase the amount of electric current produce by generator?

Your question lacks detail but, in general, increasing the load will increase the current.


How can you increase the amount of electricity produced by a generator?

by increasing the strngth of magnets used in it.


What is the maximum distance you can run wires from a generator set for 240V 3 phase?

It depends on the amount of power/current drawn from the generator. A small amount of current requires thin wire, more current requires thicker wire. The siae of wire can be calculated when the current is known.


What will happen if generator is overexcited?

if a generator is overexcited it is producing a large amount of reactive power which requires an increase in the alternator emf. To produce this emf, the rotor currents must increase resulting in extreme ohmic rotor losses.


When you are creating a generator what determines how much current is generated?

You don't generate current. You generate voltage, and the amount of current that leaves the generator is determined by the devices that are designed to run with that voltage, and draw their operating energy from your generator. You choose the size of the materials used to construct your generator based on the maximum amount of current you expect it to be asked to deliver by its users. But the actual current at any moment will depend on how many people are using it for their supply, and what kind of appliances they're operating. If nobody is using power from your generator, or the output cables are disconnected from it, then you can run it all you want and the current will be zero. Before you decide on the final design and go out for bids to construct your generating station, you might like to review the topics of voltage, current, power, and energy, and get them straight in your mind.


How do you stop your goldfish being blown about by the filter?

If your goldfish is being blown about by the current created by the filter then the fish is either playing in the current deliberately, or the current is too strong for the tank size. Most filters can be adjusted to increase or decrease the amount of water flow. If necessary you can decrease the amount of water flow.


What happens to the amount of current in a series circuit as the number of batteries increase?

it increases


Is there a device where you could send an amount of electricity to different places and increase the power being sent?

electric generator is a device which can send amount of electricity to different places


How does a Generator conductor electricity?

The generator induces a current in a wire using a magnet and a coil of wire. When the drive on a generator is rotated, a magnet inside the generator is spun around. This creates a moving magnetic field inside the generator. Located inside and around the generator is a coil of wires, which lead to a power storage device. As the magnetic field moves around, it induces a current in these wires by pushing the electrons inside the wires. The amount of electricity generated by a generator can be increased by increasing the amount of coils around the magnet, increasing the strength of the magnet, or by simply increasing the speed at which the drive is turned.


If current in an electric stove is doubled how will the thermal energy produced per unit time change?

P = I2R (power = current squared times resistance). Therefore, if the current doubles, the amount of dissipated electrical energy will increase by a factor of 4.P = I2R (power = current squared times resistance). Therefore, if the current doubles, the amount of dissipated electrical energy will increase by a factor of 4.P = I2R (power = current squared times resistance). Therefore, if the current doubles, the amount of dissipated electrical energy will increase by a factor of 4.P = I2R (power = current squared times resistance). Therefore, if the current doubles, the amount of dissipated electrical energy will increase by a factor of 4.


Can you amplify the electricity when you have only very small power supply or any mechanism for it?

you really can't amplify electricity. You can amplify sound but that is different. You can change the voltage but the actual power will not change because as voltage is raised current is reduced. you can only increase power by increasing the mechanical input to a generator which will increase the electrical power as well. The conservation on energy says that power cannot just be created. It needs to come from some where either mechanical or thermal. Following the conservation of energy, you can convert kinetic energy into electric energy using a (relatively) small amount of electricity - this is what a synchronous generator does. A small amount of electricity is used to create a magnetic field; the stronger this field, the more energy can be "pushed out" of the generator; this energy must come from the kinetic energy stored in the spinning machine. In this way, a synchronous generator can be thought of as an electricity "amplifier".


Using your answer to question 9 if the generated current in a Mak-Ban generator were 2 876 amperes what would be the amount of transmitted current assuming there is no power loss?

Sorry where is question 9 again.
