How many types of winding are used in AC and DC motors?

IN DC MOTORThere are 2 types of windings:1. Field windingOn poles core which are on stator body.These are always concentrated type.2. Armature windingOn rotor on motor may be simplex or multiplex and lap or wave connected.IN AC (Synchronous ) MOTOR3-phase star or delta connected on stator (armature ) suppliedby 3 phase may be concentrated or distributed (usually preferred) .Rotor (field ) has concentrared in salient pole type nd distributed in cylindrical type supplied by DC supply.IN AC ( Induction ) MOTOR3-phase (star or delta connected) distributed winding on stator and wound rotor .In squirrel cage rotor short circuted copper bars are used.


What are the uses of damper winding s in synchronous motor?

to achive constant speed and provide a eassy way to inter loacking with syn fluxDamper winding is a short circuited winding which are useful in preventing the hunting(momentary) speed fluctuation in alternator and are needed in synchronous motor to provide starting torque.


Why armature winding resistance is less than field winding resistance?

An 'armature winding' is the rotor winding, and the 'field winding' is the stator winding.


Can you use the separately excited shunt generator machine as self excited generator?

You have a seperately excited generator and then you have a shunt generator which has the field winding in parallel with the armature terminals. In DC machines a separately excited generator could be run as a shunt generator provided the field winding is designed to work on the generated voltage. A separately excited alternator needs a DC supply for the field winding. In car alternators that is taken from the main winding via a rectifier and a voltage regulator.


What are motor made from?

an electric motor is a copper winding or 3 separate windings depending on the phase, the copper winding is the centralised inside of a iron magnet, this is also how a generator is made instead of putting a current on you turn the windings to receive a voltage .

What is the difference between concentrated and distributed winding?

concentrated winding:-slots/pole/pshas=1 , i.e equal to 1 distributed winding:slots/pole/phase>1 , i.e grater than 1


What is concentrated winding?

a winding is called concentrated winding when the number of slots per pole per phase is fractional

What is function of a stator in alternator?

The stator is the stationary winding assembly that makes the magnetic field inside the alternator. It is this magnetic field that the armature rotates in generating the electricity.


Why alternator space heater used?

Alternators windings do not carry any current when it is not in motion. In high humid environment, the moisture ingress in the windings can reduce the resistance between the winding conductor and the body. When a moist alternator is started, the alternator windings may burn due to short circuit with body. To avoid this, the winding can always be kept warm by using heaters called "space heaters".

Is it possible to bypass the box on the back of the alternator?

i presume you are talking about the rectifier regulator and the answer is no it would not charge a battery without this if you don't know what the part is i dought you will be able to know what is wrong with your alternator you could have winding problems or brush problems also


Why does a Chevy S10 make a light winding noise when idling and the battery gauge drops when you let off the accelerator?

sounds like the alternator is going bad.


Which fuse runs the alternator?

Almost every alternator has its output directly connected to the battery or connected by a "fuse link" (which is a high-current fuse that looks like a section of the wire from the alternator to the battery). The alternator is isolated by internal diodes so as not to drain the battery when the engine is off. The alternator is turned on by power which comes in thru the "ALT" warning light. When the engine is started, the alternator has no output, so current flows thru the bulb and into the alternator field (F) winding. When the winding spins it generates voltage which then feeds back to the light and the internal regulator to power the alternator. When the alternator is self-powered, there is power on both sides of the "ALT" light, so it is NOT illuminated. When the alternator stops producing power, the bulb lights up. Note that the "fuse" is whatever fuse is connected to the "ALT" light. If the "ALT" light bulb or the fuse which feeds the start-up power to the light is burned out then the alternator will not power-up. Newer cars with digital dash instruments use a resistor in place of the "ALT" light bulb.
