In the ever-evolving world of automotive technology, innovations have continually shaped the way vehicles operate and function. One significant development that transformed the electrical systems of cars was the transition …
Slip rings are small devices that have a very important role in all types of devices, equipment, and machinery that come in all sizes, from the smallest to the largest …
There’s a new substance taking the renewable energy world by storm, and it’s been hiding in plain sight. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a white powder found in sunscreen, cosmetics, and …
An induction motor may be considered to be a transformer with a rotating short-circuited secondary. The stator winding corresponds to the transformer primary and the rotor winding to the transformer …
This is a 99% 3D printed FULL SCALE Alternator made for educational purposes.
What is Load Forecasting? Electrical energy cannot currently be stored in large amounts. It has to be generated whenever there is a demand for it. It is, therefore, imperative for …
The machine which produces 3 phase power from mechanical power is called an alternator or synchronous generator. The working of an alternator is based on the principle that when the flux linking …
An alternator operates on the same fundamental principle of electromagnetic induction as a DC generator i.e., when the flux linking a conductor changes, an e.m.f. is induced in the conductor. Like …
16. A winding is having a number of slots is equal to the number of poles, then this winding is called (A) concentrated winding. (B) short pitch winding. (C) full pitch …
Armature reaction in alternator is the effect of armature flux on the field flux (i. e., rotor ampere-turns). Read this article to learn more. We have already discussed the effect …
The interesting thing about the parallel operation of the DC series generator is that DC series generators are not usually employed for the supply of power. Instead, DC series motors …
Insulation Resistance or IR Test is carried out by maintenance engineers to ensure the healthiness of the overall insulation system of electrical equipment. It reflects the presence or absence of …
In a separately excited dc generator, the field coils are energized from an independent source. The disadvantage of a separately excited DC generator is the same that we require an external …
A DC generator requires MMF to establish flux in its magnetic circuit. The MMF necessary to establish flux in the magnetic circuit of a dc generator is obtained by field …
Steam power stations convert the heat energy of coal combustion into electrical energy. A steam power station basically works on the Rankine cycle. Steam is produced in the boiler by utilizing …
The production of Rotating magnetic field in 3 phase supply is very interesting. When a 3-phase winding is energized from a 3-phase supply, a rotating magnetic field is produced. This …
