There are two primary methods:
Number one, use a DC motor to drive an AC generator.
Number two use an inverter, which uses integrated circuits, power transistors and a transformer to generate AC currrent.
Alternating Current ... like in most households.The adapter is either converting DC to AC or vice versa.
An 'inverter' takes direct current (DC) input from a battery and outputs alternating current (AC). This means that an electric drill that should be plugged into the mains, can be run from the inverter.
how much energy is lost in converting dc energy to ac energy
A "Rectifier" converts AC current to pulsating DC current.
AC means alternating current DC means direct current there is no polarity reversal
Converting D/C into A/C is very expensive. You can use inverters to switch the direction of the current but you would probably be better off to replace your DC generator with an AC generator and if you need both AC and DC power then use a rectifier (inexpensive when compared to inverters) to convert the AC to a DC current.

An inverter is the apparatus that changes direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). It does this by converting the fixed voltage and direction of DC electricity into an oscillating voltage and alternating direction of AC electricity.
Halfwave or fullwave or polyphase AC to DC?
The difference AC and DC grounding is that AC is alternate current and DC is direct current. Grounding for both AC and DC is the same.
The major difference between an AC generator and a DC generatoris that the DC generator requires a mechanism to provide a DC output. This can be done mechanically with a commutator or electronically with a rectifier. Internally, all generators produce an alternating voltage. Allgeneratorsrequire a magnetic field.
Yes but is somewhat complicated to get good level DC from an AC source.================================Answer #1.5 :All electronic devices operate on DC ... radios, TVs, computers, stereos, etc.If the device plugs into the wall outlet for power to operate, then the AC fromthe wall outlet is used to produce DC internally to run the device.
