In order to generate an electric current, a magnet is moved near copper, usually copper wires. Because of the magnetic field affecting the copper, an electric current is formed due to the electrons moving in the copper.
The amount of current produced in the armature of a generator is primarily determined by the voltage induced in the armature winding, the resistance of the circuit, and the load connected to the generator. According to Ohm's Law, current (I) is equal to voltage (V) divided by resistance (R) (I = V/R). Additionally, factors such as the speed of rotation of the generator, the strength of the magnetic field, and the number of turns in the coil also influence the induced voltage and, consequently, the current generated.
An a.c. generator produces alternating current, whereas a d.c. generator produces direct current.
Faraday's law : If a "conductor" is placed in a "magnetic field" the movement in either conductor or field produces an induced emf in the conductor. In generator the produced torque will be in AC(alternating current) so commutator or slip rings is used to produce unidirectional torque required for production of Direct Current. Basically by Faraday law the produced torque will be always bidirectional, for alternator the bidirectional torque can be used directly. for DC generator the unidirectional torque is needed to produce Direct Current.
An ac generator produces ac, a dc generator produces dc, it all depends on the generator.
That depends on if the two machines are of equal KVA rating and also what type of Generator Control (Isochronous or Droop) each of the machines uses.
A generator produces alternating current.
emf produced by generator(E)=no. of turns in coil*rate of change of magnetic flux
power = torque * rpm
direct current
AC sinewave
UK mains ac current is produced from a rotating 3 phase generator, rotating at 50 cycles per second (50 Hz)
The process in which electric current is produced when a spinning shaft rotates magnets inside a generator is referred to as 'Direct Current'. It is not expected to work by the normal standard physics model however some people claim it is just.
The voltage produced by a generator alternates because the motion of the rotor within the magnetic field causes changes in the direction of the current flow, resulting in a fluctuating voltage output.
The amount of current produced in the armature of a generator is primarily determined by the voltage induced in the armature winding, the resistance of the circuit, and the load connected to the generator. According to Ohm's Law, current (I) is equal to voltage (V) divided by resistance (R) (I = V/R). Additionally, factors such as the speed of rotation of the generator, the strength of the magnetic field, and the number of turns in the coil also influence the induced voltage and, consequently, the current generated.
A DC waveform is produced from the output terminals of a DC generator through the action of a commutator, which converts the alternating current induced in the armature windings into direct current by reversing the direction of current flow at the appropriate times. As the armature rotates within the magnetic field, the commutator ensures that the output current remains unidirectional, resulting in a DC waveform at the generator terminals.
To increase the amount of electric current produced by a generator, you can increase the rotational speed of the generator, increase the strength of the magnetic field within the generator, or increase the number of turns in the generator coils. These methods will result in a higher induced voltage and therefore a higher electric current output.
A generator produces electrical energy through the conversion of mechanical energy, typically created by a turbine being turned by flowing water, steam, wind, or combustion of fuel. This mechanical energy is transformed into electrical energy through electromagnetic induction.
