How do you start a dead power generator?
A generator needs some kind of engine to drive it, it won't start by itself.
Which electrical component in a circuit provides energy to drive electric charges around a circuit?
Power source such as a battery if u pluged it in it will supply energy to drive electric charges around a circuit
What are the three main components of a generator?
Drive shaft,Strong magnet,Coil of wire
How big of a generator do you need to drive a 200 amp welder?
When you refer to a 200 amp welder you are talking about the output side of the welder. What you have to do is find out what the input voltage and current of the welder is to calculate the size of a generator needed to operate the welder.
Convert watts to hp?
746 Watts per HP. I like to calculate in some leeway though, so when calculating horsepower required to drive a generator, I figure a 10kw generator will require a 10HP engine.
What is the definition of wind power?
Wind Power Is The Use Of A Windmill To Drive An Electric Generator(whoever wrote this should study more no offense, right User:Quirkyquantummechanic)
What is the use of a windmill to drive an electrical generator is?
Wind power. A wind farm. A wind turbine.
How does cycle pedal Generator produced electricity?
the pedals drive the wheel, the wheel drive an electrical generator.2 possibilities for the wheel to drive the generator:-the wheel does not have a tire: a belt goes in the rim and drive a puley on the shaft of the generator.-the wheel has a tire: there is a drive roller on the shaft of the generator. the drive roller is pressed on the tire.The generator can be of any kind. They are commonly car alternator or permanent magnet dc motor, but you can also drive an alternative current squirel cage generator. Depending on the chosen generator, you have to use an electric circuit appropriate for the generator.
What is the hub of a windmill?
The hub is where the blades connect. From here the blades are turned and the rotational power is transferred (maybe through a drive-shaft and gearbox) to a generator where electricity is generated.
What technology was used to power ENIAC?
Electric power from the existing electric power company. No idea what the power company used to drive their generator equipment.
How do you create man power electricity by bicycle?
Basically you use the drive components of the bike to power an electric generator/alternator.
How does wave power work?
Basically a large generator is placed on top of the water with an electric generator inside of it that is moves up and down by the waves. This motion is used to drive the generator and creates electricity.That's just one way, though.
Tell you about diesel electric engines?
It is used on extremely heavy vehicles such as dump trucks in a mine or locomotive. The design is: a diesel engine drives a electric generator. Then the electricity is distributed to electric motors that drive the road wheels. This design eliminates clutches, gearboxes and drive shafts. Today, some ships have similar design. The difference is the electric motors drive propellers instead of road wheels.
What is hydraulic controller?
A hydraulic or hydrostatic drive system or hydraulic power transmission is a drive or transmission system that uses hydraulic fluid under pressure to drive machinery. The term hydrostatic refers to the transfer of energy from flow and pressure, not from the kinetic energy of the flow. Such a system basically consists of three parts. The generator (e.g. a hydraulic pump, driven by an electric motor, a combustion engine or a windmill); valves, filters, piping etc. (to guide and control the system); the motor (e.g. a hydraulic motor or hydraulic cylinder) to drive the machinery.
What is the rotating device of a windmill called?
I'm no expert but All these parts move 1. Blades 2. Drive shaft 3. Gearcase try this web site: http://ezinearticles.com/?Know-the-Technology---The-Parts-of-a-Windmill&id=1491414
How does thermal energy cause generators to make electricity?
Heat converts water into steam generating enough pressure to drive a turbine mechanically attached to an electric generator.
What size petrol generator to drive a electric motor to move a car?
A motor driving a generator to operate an electric car does not need to be as large as an engine that normally drives a car. This is because the engine must be made to provide the maximum power that the car requires wheras the generator motor only needs to provide enough to charge the batteries.The actual size depends on the size of the car and the batteries used.
