A simple AC generator consists of:Figure 3 Simple AC Generator(a) a strong magnetic field, (b)conductors that rotate through thatmagnetic field, and (c) a means bywhich a continuous connection isprovided to the conductors as theyare rotating . The strongmagnetic field is produced by acurrent flow through the field coilof the rotor. The field coil in therotor receives excitation throughthe use of slip rings and brushes.Two brushes are spring-held incontact with the slip rings toprovide the continuous connectionbetween the field coil and theexternal excitation circuit. The armature is contained within the windings of the stator and isconnected to the output. Each time the rotor makes one complete revolution, one complete cycleof AC is developed. A generator has many turns of wire wound into the slots of the rotor.
The magnitude of AC voltage generated by an AC generator is dependent on the field strengthand speed of the rotor. Most generators are operated at a constant speed; therefore, the generatedvoltage depends on field excitation, or strength.
What else can I help you with?
Is IC 555 can generates an Ac output signal?
no
Alternator generates DC or AC?
An alternator produces AC current but it is converted to DC by the rectifier inside the alternator.
What generates more noise ac motor or dc motor?
dc motors generate more noise.
What is an alternator for?
The alternator generates power to run the car and charge the battery. An alternator in a vehicle generates Alternate Current (AC) instead of Direct Current (DC) electricity to power the vehicle.
Which statement describes an AC generator?
AC generator is a rotating machine with a rotor and stator winding, driven by another prime mover, which generates alternating current at a specified voltage.
What kind of electricity used in train?
Ac current. Ac current is easily controlled for voltage and frequency. The diesel engine runs a generator that generates AC current for use in the electric drive motors on each drive wheel.
What is DC generator?
because DC generator generates generally generate DC power but as it has slip rings which convert it into ac output power
How do transformers work since the two coils aren't connected to each other?
The AC - and it must be AC - in the primary coil generates an alternating magnetic field around the coil; this alternating magnetic field induces a current in the secondary.
Is a circuit a path made for magnetic field?
A circuit is a path for charge particles -- it conducts current. An inductor, a circuit component, generates a magnetic field, when an AC is on. ======================
How does the alternator recharge the battery?
An alternator is just a small generator that generates AC power and is converted to 12v DC power via a transformer for battery storage and use.
I have the alternator just missing the wiring connection sheet how do you connect an alternator from a generator on a 12 volt system?
You wouldn't. Terminology wrong? An alternator is a generator that generates AC.
What links are there between electricity and magnetism?
An AC/DC voltage that flows through a coil with a steel bar inside of it generates a powerful magnetism, depending on the voltage applied, the number of spire, the section of the wire. Transformers require AC to generate electromagnetic induction.
