Generator principle: a current moving relative to a magnetic field will have a voltage induced into it.

Motor principle: a current-carrying conductor within a magnetic field will experience a force that will try to push that conductor out of the field.

How does the starting of synchronous motor using dc generator as a load work-?

Starting of the synchronous motor using the DC generator creates a magnetic field.


What is a DC generator the same as?

A DC generator, or "dynamo", is very similar to a DC electric motor but cannot be described as "exactly the same as a motor" because a DC generator's designed purpose is not to "use" electricity (which a DC motor does) but to "make", or "produce", electricity.


What is the difference between a DC motor and a generator in terms of EMF?

During the operation of a DC motor, EMF is created across its terminals using an external source. Whereas, in a DC generator EMF is created across its terminal based on principle of dynamically induced EMF. So talking in terms of EMF, in DC motor EMF is consumed by the motor coil and utilized to rotate the axle. On the other hand, in DC generator EMF developed across coil is transfered to a load or a battery and consumed by them.


Is it possible that you use motor as a generator input and electricity of the generator provide to a motor as a input?

If I'm understanding the question, you are proposing using one motor and one generator, and have the motor spin the generator up to speed, and have the generator attempt to supply power to the motor. The answer is yes, you can do this, but you will be losing energy, not gaining it. The motor and generator's efficiencies are less than 100%, so once you remove the outside source they will slow down until they come to a complete stope, without any other load connected other than themselves.


What is the theory of conversion of AC to DC using 3-phase induction motor and DC shunt generator?

The theory of converting AC to DC using a 3-phase induction motor and a DC shunt generator involves utilizing the induction motor to mechanically drive the shunt generator. When the induction motor is powered by a three-phase AC supply, it operates and drives the rotor of the connected DC shunt generator. This generator then converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy, producing a DC output. The process allows for efficient conversion of AC to DC, leveraging the motor's mechanical properties and the generator's electrical characteristics.

Why is it said that generator is a motor working in reverse?

because working principle of both the things are same.The motor converts electrical energy in to mechanical via magnetic induction and generator do the exact opposite of this.And yes,you should use 'electricity generator' not only 'generator'.


When you supply mechanical energy as input to the motor what will happen?

What are the differences between the parts of a generator and the parts of a motor?

In principle a generator is the same as a motor. In a dc motor the voltage generated by the rotating armature is slightly less than the supply voltage which causes power to flow in from the supply. If an engine is then coupled to the shaft causing it to rotate faster, then it generates more voltage and power flows back into the supply. That is how a motor becomes a generator.

Why load angle is positive for generator and negative for motor?

simply put a motor consumes power and a generator produces it. reactance of a generator = - reactance of a motor
