What is the relationship between generators and motors?

Both generator and motor are energy converters. Subject to losses, both convert one form of energy into another. All motors and generators use a form of motion on one side of their energy conversion process (typically, but not necessarily, rotary motion). For example, a petrol engine is a motor that converts combustible fuel into rotary motion, an electric generator converts (typically rotary) motion into electric energy. Complimentary motor/generator pairs are only possible among certain forms of energy. For example, an electric motor can be connected to a generator, thus converting electric energy into rotary motion, and converting rotary motion back into electric energy. Other complimentary motor/generator pairs are only possible by indirection. For example, a wind turbine converts wind energy into rotation, which can be converted into electric energy with an (electric) generator. This generator's output can then supply an electric motor, which converts it into rotary motion, which in turn might drive a fan blade, thus converting rotary motion into wind energy. Not all energy forms support complimentary motor/generator pairs. Combustible fuels such as petrol, for example, can be converted into rotary motion which a combustion engine. However, a generator capable of converting rotary motion into combustible fuel has yet to be invented.

What is rotary inverter?

"Rotary Inverter: In a rotary inverter, DC electricity input powers a DC motor that turns an AC generator. Rotary inverters are reliable and produce a pure sine-wave output. These inverters have automatic load demand: they begin operation once a load is activated, and shut down when the load is removed. Disadvantages of a rotary inverter are lack of frequency control, low surge capability (50% above maximum rating) and lower efficiency (50% to 80%). Rotary inverters are not as common as electronic inverters."


How can pistons that move up and down generate electricity?

The reciprocating motion of the pistons is converted into rotary motion which is connected to a shaft connected to an electrical generator .


How to build a Rotary phase converter?

A simple Rotary phase converter is just a motor generator set. An electric motor running on the input voltage/current/phase/frequency. it drives a generator that supplies a different voltage/current/phase/frequency. So an electric motor and an electric generator connected together mechanically, either on the same shaft, or via gears, constitutes a Rotary phase converter. the above is incorrect, the motor/generator is the same motor, just one 3 phase motor is needed, it will run on T1 and T2, and put out L1, L2, and L3. You just need to know how to wire it up and what to do to get it to spin over on simple single phase 220, it will create three phase 220.


How do you convert a single phase generator to a three phase generator?

You really can't without replacing the generator end (head) with an end wound for three phase. Three phase ends are not usually made for smaller generators. Of course, once the power leaves the generator, it could be applied to a static or rotary convertor same as is used with utility power. Make sure the generator has sufficient KW to run both the load and the convertor. I agree. You can't without a converter.

Do split rings convert AC to DC power in DC motor?

no they do notAnswerYes, a split-ring commutator does convert a.c. to d.c. It is a rotary switch fitted to the shaft of the generator, which reverses the polarity of its output every half-cycle, so that the generator's output is a pulsating d.c. instead of a.c.
