Describe Essential parts of an AC Generator Essential parts of an AC generator (i) Armature The armature is a rectangular coil consisting of a large number of loops or turns of insulated…
Explain AC Generator or Alternator in Three Phase AC generator (Alternator) – Three phase A single-phase a.c. generator or alternator has only one armature winding. If a number of armature windings are used…
What is Eddy Current? Foucault in the year 1895 observed that when a mass of metal moves in a magnetic field or when the magnetic field through a stationary…
Describe Working Process Eddy Currents Working process Eddy currents Eddy currents are currents induced in conductors to oppose the change in flux that generated them. When a conductor in the…
Explain Methods of Producing Induced emf Electromotive force (EMF) is the characteristic of any energy source capable of driving electric charge around a circuit. It is abbreviated E in the international…
How Emf Induced by Changing the Magnetic Induction? Emf induced by changing the magnetic induction The magnetic induction can be changed by moving a magnet either towards or away from a coil and…
Explain how Emf Induced by Changing the Area Enclosed by the Coil Minimum things required to induce emf are conductor, flux, and movement of the conductor in the magnetic field. EMF induced by changing the area enclosed…
How Emf Induced by Changing the Orientation of the Coil? Emf Induced by Changing the Orientation of the Coil The magnetic induction can be changed by moving a magnet either towards or away from a…
Principle of AC Generator (Dynamo) Single Phase The ac generator is a device used for converting mechanical energy into electrical energy. The generator was originally designed by a Yugoslav scientist Nikola Tesla.…
Explain Coefficient of Mutual Induction The coefficient of mutual induction of two coils is numerically equal to the emf induced in one coil when the rate of change of current…
