What is the energy released from the natural gas used for in a power station?
The gas may be burned in a jet turbine, turning the electrical generator. and/or burned to heat water into steam- which turns a turbine, which turns a generator.
What if you have a power outage and your incubator turns off?
In these types of ventures it is all ways a good idea to have a stand by generator available. It doesn't have to be tied into the house system. If the incubator is just a plug in device, start the generator for the duration of the power failure.
Is it possible for a pilot generator to become weak and only open a 750MV gas valve partially to give the burner a low flame output?
The way I understand it ... no. The pilot generator is a thermally sensitive on/off switch. It simply tells the valve to open or close. If the unit turns on and fires it would seem the pilot generator has worked correctly. Since the amount of gas flow is the issue, it would seem the gas valve is the culprit and is not opening all the way. Of course, to be certain have a pro check it. If you must, a pilot generator is cheap and easy to replace without a professional, and replacement would quickly determine if the pilot generator was at fault.
What is a generator breaker?
The generator circuit breaker or gcb is a circuit breaker which is connected with the generator . Whenever there is a fault in the generator the circuit breaker trips and disconnects the generator from operation thus it helps the place from a serious accident etc..
What cable is needed to go from a generator to the electrical supply?
The cable that is used to connect from the generator is based on the size in kW's of the generator and the generator's breaker size rated in amps. It usually is a flexible cab-tire 4 wire cable if the generator is a portable type. If it is a stationary generator is has to be wired with a flexible conduit so as not to transmit vibration from the generator to the conduit system.
Why is a generator more difficult to turn when it is supplying electrical current to a circuit?
The generator can't create energy out of nothingness. It's converting mechanical energy to electrical energy. That mechanical energy has to come from somewhere ... the steam that turns the turbine, the wind that turns the sail, the falling water than turns the wheel, or the arm of the guy who turns the crank.
What is A device with blades that turns generator?
A turbine is a device with blades that turn a generator.
How do you transfer wind energy to electrical energy by using generator?
Wind turns the windmill which is attached to a generator. The more it turns, the more energy it produces.
How do windmills produce electricity?
The wind turns the turbine, that then turns a generator, creating energy!
What device turns movement into electricity?
That would be a generator.
What kind of device turns motion energy into electricity?
A generator.
What is the relationship between the speed of a generator and its voltage and the torque on the generator shaft and the current produced by the generator?
emf produced by generator(E)=no. of turns in coil*rate of change of magnetic flux
How a wind power system produce electricity?
The wind turns a wind turbine. The turbine turns a generator.
How is a motor different from a generator and how is a generator different then a mot or?
A motor takes electricity and creates rotating motion. A generator takes rotating motion and turns it into electricity.
In what order does the wind go through to get to the generator?
The wind turns the rotor blades which are connected by a shaft to the generator. The wind does not 'get to' the generator, which is enclosed in a cover to protect it from the weather.
What is a 9 letter word for something that turns motion into electricity?
generator
How do water generators work?
If you mean a hydroelectric generator, the weight of falling water turns a turbine or water wheel. The turbine or water wheel is attached to a generator, and turns the generator, producing electricity.
