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


In the generation of electricity commutator would be used on an alternating current generator and slip rings would be used on a direct current generator?

No. Just the opposite. An AC alternator uses slip rings, a DC generator uses a commutator. Most modern auto alternators are in fact AC alternators that rectify the AC output to DC using a diode bridge.


What happens if commutator of DC generator is removed?

If the commutator is removed from your generator, you (if you connect slip rings) get AC supply instead of DC supply. the function of the commutator is to convert AC to DC supply and vice versa.Additional AnswerRemoving the commutator will also prevent you from connecting the output of the generator to its load. Remember, the generator's armature is spinning!


When slip ring get negative charge in ac generator?

you apply dc voltage to slip rings in synchronous generators polarity will make no difference ( other than when it is first applied )


Slip rings and split rings?

Slip rings are used in AC while split rings are used in DC generators


Name the essential parts of the motor and generator?

Engine Alternator Cooling and exhaust systems fuel tank voltage regulator control panel


Is slip ring a part attached to each end of the wire loop in an ac generator?

In a very simple, laboratory-type, a.c. generator -yes. In practical generators, the output (armature) windings are part of the stator, so do not rotate and, so, don't require slip rings.


Give the function of its part of dc generator?

An AC generator generally called an alternator because it is generating a alternating current, consist of a rotor, field stator, slip ring assembly or rectifier bridge mounted in the place of the slip ring, in the case of a brushless alternator and an AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulator)


What is an alternative to carbon brushes in an ac motor?

slip rings


What is the differences between the slip and split rings?

Split rings are in AC generators ( alternating current) while slip rings are in DC current (direct current).


What is the function of a split ring commutator?

The split rings cause the direction of the magnetic field in the armature to change direction as the motor rotates. If this didn't happen the motor would not rotate. Slip rings can be used for an AC motor which causes the direction of the magnetic field to change with the AC waveform.


How can you generate a DC?

U sohuld replace the slip-ring which it is in the AC generator to a commutator. It is a split-ring. Then u can produce DC generator.
