Best Answer

no coz a intilization is required by every component

Answer

Yes, it can but, fortunately, it only happens occasionally. When this happens, it's necessary to demagnetise the field poles by passing an external d.c. current through the field windings. This process is known as 'flashing the field'.

Try "flashing" the rotor circuit. Refer to your owners manual before trying so no other componets are harmed. Also, have your capacitor checked if yours has one.

Do magnets lose their magnatism when heated?

In depends upon how hot you are talking about. Cold would be my best answer in general. If you are comparing the magnetism between say 10 below zero and 100 F then there would be no discernable difference. If you should heat the metal to red-hot, the magnetism would be lost after the metal has cooled.


Will a magnet still be a magnet if it is melted?

A magnet is produced by aligning the magnetic domains in a material to point in the same direction. When heated, the magnet loses its magnetism as the molecular motion, which is caused by heating, destroys the alignment of the magnetic domains. Ferromagnetic materials also lose its magnetism after being melted. However, when the magnet is being hammered whilst cooling in a magnetic field, the melted magnet would gain its magnetism again.


Would magnets attract to a paperclip under water?

magnets dont lose their magnetism under water. According to me magnets do attract paper under water.


What is the definition of a permanent magnet?

The permanent magnet generator is a synchronous machine where the rotor windings has been replaced with permanent magnets. This eliminates the excitation loses in the rotor, which otherwise typically represent 20-30% of the total generator loses. The reduced losses also give a lower temperature rise in the generator, which means that a smaller and simpler cooling system can be used. The temperature reduction in the rotor also reduces the temperature in the bearings, improving reliability by increasing the lifetime of the bearing and bearing grease.


Why does hard iron retain magnetism?

Coercivity is the property describing the ability of magnetic material to retain magnetism. Compared to soft iron, hard iron has larger magnetic domains, regions of the crystal where atomic magnetic fields have similar orientation. Materials with fewer, bigger domains within a given volume have higher coercivity than materials with many small domains. Hard iron can still lose its magnetism, as all permanent magnets can be demagnitized if strong enough fields are involved. Soft iron loses magnetism simply by removing it from a magnetic field. Some "rare earth" metal alloys can retain magnetism much better than hard iron, since they can have much larger domains.

Can a motor lose residual magnetism in the stator and if so how can it be restored?

Yes it can be restored by priming the generator set using a 12 volt battery. Connect the battery in right polarity to the slip rings. The generator must be run first, as soon as the voltmeter register rising voltage disconnect the battery immediately.


A permanet magnet will lose magnetism?

over time it will lose its magnetism. It will also lose its magnetism if it is temperature is to high or when it's vibrate too much.


Can the rock magnetite lose its magnetism?

The rock magnetite can only very rarely lose all of its magnetism. It is an important source and tool for magnetism and the testing of equipment in laboratories.
