The amount of electricity going into a generator is variable and depends on the energy demand or load being drawn from the generator. Generators are typically rated in kilowatts (kW) or megawatts (MW) to indicate their capacity to produce electricity. The rate at which electricity is supplied to a generator is often measured in terms of power, which is the product of voltage and current.

What form of electricity comes out of a Wave Generator?
It depends on how the generator is set up. Some will produce DC (Direct Current) and others will produce AC (Alternating Current). Where possible AC electricity will be produced as it runs through the grid without much loss of power.
How much diesel need to burn produce 1 mw electricity?
The amount of diesel needed to produce 1 MW of electricity can vary depending on the efficiency of the diesel generator. On average, it can range from about 0.25 to 0.3 gallons of diesel per hour per MW of electricity produced.
How fast does electricity travel through a conductor?
Electricity travels through a conductor at nearly the speed of light, which is approximately 186,000 miles per second. However, the movement of electrons in a conductor is much slower, typically on the order of millimeters per second.
How can a pendulum be used to produce electricity?
A moving pendulum stores a certain quantity of kinetic energy, whose expression is T = 0.5 L M w^2 where L is the pendulum length M the pendulum mass w the pendulum angular velocity (radiant per second) It is possible to device different methods to transform this energy in electrical energy, for example by charging the pendulum mass and moving it into a solenoid, much like an electrical generator. The result is that the pendulum is slowed more and more up to stop and, while the pendulum speed decreases, electrical energy is created. The total electrical energy E that can be created is E=T-R where R>0 are the unavoidable losses of the system.
How fast electricity will travel through wire per second?
Electricity travels at the speed of light, which is around 299,792 kilometers per second (186,282 miles per second) in a vacuum. In a typical wire, electrons move much slower due to resistance, typically ranging from a few millimeters per hour up to meters per second depending on factors like wire material and current flow.
How much a electricity can a generator hold?
None. A generator generates electricity, it does not store it.
How much electricity will a Honda portable generator give me?
It depends on how much you are willing to pay. For an economy generator, the cheapest generator will put out 2500 watts, while the most expensive generator will put out double that amount.
How much electricity is produced by 10 rpm?
Depends, 10 rpm of what? a bicycle, a generator, car wheel?
Is an electric power generator safer than a natural gas powered generator?
You can purchase an electric power generator, but it won't do you much good if the electric goes out. A kerosene or deisel generator would be a better choice.
How much does an electricity generator cost?
Electricity generators usually go for about 3-10 thousand dollars. It really depends on the size and how many kilowatts you are looking to get out of it.
How much minimum torque is required by a turbine to generate Electricity?
initial torque to overcome the friction in generator and then to keep constant speed of stator within the generator. Minimum 50NM
How does a windmill turn wind into energy?
Wind Mills are used to pump water from the earth. Although some wind mills were retrofitted to produce electricity. Wind turbines have large blades that are designed to create lift to turn a rotor. In large scale turbines the rotor usually connects to a gearbox. The gearbox will then be connected to a generator. The generator similar but much larger is like the alternator in a car, produces the electricity. Then the electricity goes into a transformer then to the grid. There are a lot of different designs of wind turbines and some might not have all these components but they all have generators.
Instead of using electricity I'm using solar power generator for my home how much money will stay in my pocket?
By using a solar power generator to power your home you could save around 500 on electricity bills, if you also convert a solar panel into heating your water you could save a further 200 a year.
How much does wind energy cost?
So far it is free because wind is a renewable energy source but you have to count the turbine and generator and everything that produces the electricity.
Can a 6 watt dc generator produce that much electricity which can be used to run a 3 phase and a 2 phase motor?
"2 phase" and "3 phase" are descriptions of AC supplies, which no DC generator can imitate, regardless of its power rating.
How much electricity is produced by 350 RPM?
That's a much more complicated question than you would first think. A generator that operates at 350 RPM would be very rare. To better answer the question, a short overview of how generators work is needed. To generate electricity, wires are moved through a magnetic field. The stronger the magnetic field, or the faster the wires are moved, the tougher it would be to move those wires, and the more electricity is generated. A typical generator (especially what you would find in a power plant), uses electromagnets to generate the magnetic field. Due to many different engineering concerns, the speed of the turbine remains constant (3600 RPM is a common speed, though lower speeds are not uncommon). If more electricity is needed, the electromagnet's power is increased, which generates a stronger magnetic field. Then, it is up to whatever is turning the generator (usually some sort of a turbine) to provide more power to the generator to keep the RPM the same. There will be some sort of a limit on the generator, where applying more power could overload the electromagnets, or damage the generator shaft. The important thing to notice is that whether that generator is providing 2 megawatts or 55 megawatts, it is turning exactly the same RPM. So, this whole answer boils down to this: it varies. It will depend on the generator, on what's turning the generator, and what load is on the generator. Those three factors often have to be balanced against each other. If the generator has permanent magnets, then you can predict how much electricity it will generate at 350 RPM. That will depend on the strength of the magnets, and how many coils of wire are used. However, if the load on the generator doesn't match generation, the RPMs at the generator will increase.
Is generator used in nuclear or solar energy?
Generators are nearly always used for nuclear power, and sometimes used for solar power. In nuclear power plants, the reactor makes steam to run a generator. Much of solar produced electricity does not use a generator, but produces power through a photovoltaic effect. Concentrated solar can be used to make steam to run a generator.
