DC generator is a machine which converts mechanical energy into electrical energy with themagnetic field as the coupling medium. It works on the principle of Faraday’s law of electromagneticinduction. Types of DC generator: Types of a DC generator based on way in which the field are excited generator are classified DC machines Separately excited self … Read more
Introduction Single phase power system is widely used as compared to three phase system for domesticpurpose, commercial purpose and to some extent in industrial purpose. As the single phase system ismore economical and the power requirement in most of the houses, shops, offices are small, this can beeasily met by single phase motor. The single … Read more
Basic Alternator Working Principle: WHAT IS ALTERNATOR? Alternating current generators are usually called alternators. They operate on the principle ofFaraday’s laws of electromagnetic induction. This law states that whenever a conductor cuts the magneticflux an emf is induced in it. This emf causes a current to flow if the circuit is closed. Fig 1.1 shows … Read more
INTRODUCTION In the year 1821 British scientist Michael Faraday explained the conversion of electrical energyinto mechanical energy by placing a current carrying conductor in a magnetic field which resulted in therotation of the conductor due to torque produced by the mutual action of electrical current and magneticfield. Based on his principle the most primitive of … Read more
