If the excitation of generator changes what happens to the terminal voltage?

By Decreasing the excitation voltage the terminal voltage will decrease and similarly by increasing the excitation voltages the terminal voltage will also increases.


What is exitation voltage?

The maximum amount of time for a script to execute was exceeded. You can change this limit by specifying a new value for the property Server.ScriptTimeout or by changing the value in the IIS administration tools.

What is excitation and why is it needed for start up in an AC generator?

An alternator is just another name for a synchronous generator. Excitation is needed to create a magnetic field in the rotor. When to rotor is spun with excitation the magnetic field will cut through the stator field and produce an AC voltage in the stator field. In terms of an alternator with built in rectifier the stators AC voltage in the rectified to DC. The strength of excitation will determine the alternators output voltage. The AVR Automatic Voltage Regulator built into almost every alternator controls field current to maintain a constant output voltage.


What is excitation of DC machine?

In general terms, 'excitation' simply describes the process by which an electric current produces a magnetic field. But, more specifically, it refers to the creation of the magnetic field by the field windings of a motor or generator. In the case of an alternator, for example, the armature windings (the windings into which voltages are induced) are stationary, and inserted into slots cut into the inner face of the stator. The field is then provided by the rotor which is supplied (via slip rings) with a 'excitation' current provided by an external d.c. voltage.

Generator excitation voltage?

the voltage which is given for creating magnetic field in a generator is known as excitation voltage.


What is the excitation system in a generator used for?

The excitation system is used to control the excitation of the rotating field in the armature. By increasing the armature current, it in turn increases the magnetic flux in the armature coil. This has the effect of increasing the voltage output of the generator. By lowering the armature current this in turn lowers the generator output voltage. The generator's voltage regulator automatically adjusts the output voltage continuously as the applied load on the generator changes.

Why The Excitation current is non-sinusoidal when applied voltage is sinusoidal?

excitation voltage is sinusoidal because it is taken from the terminal of alternator but excitation current is non-sinusoidal because it always dc.

Difference between static excitation system?

It is called static excitation when you make use of solid state components like diode and thyristors to convert to pure dc and to use this dc for field excitation of synchronous generators. The field winding of synchronous generators can be excited by dc source only. It is called brushless excitation because use of carbon brushes are not made here.It is called dynamic excitation is when you make use of rotating brushes. Excitation is necessary to produce reactive power and also to regulate the voltage of synchronous generators.

How is an alternator different from transformer?

An 'alternator' is simply another term for an a.c. generator, that is a rotating machine that generates electrical energy. A 'transformer', on the other hand, is a static machine that changes the levels of voltage -they either step up a voltage or step down a voltage.
