D.C. GENERATOR


  • Definition
DC generator is device which converts mechanical energy to in form of electrical energy.
  • Principal
D.C. generator work on principal of electromagnetic induction. Whenever flux is cut by the conductor dynamically induced emf is produced in it.

  • Basic component of d.c. generator are as below
  1. Conductor 
  2. Magnetic field

  • For produce dynamically induced emf, three portions are needed
  1. Magnetic field  
  2. Conductors 
  3. Motion of conductor 

  • Magnetic field produce magnetic flux in the machine. The dynamically induced emf produced in the conductor will cause a flow of electric current in it, if the conductor circuit is closed.
  • Working

  • The emf induced in the armature conductors of a DC generator is alternating in nature. It is converts AC into DC in the external load circuit by the split-rings or commutator.

  • According to upper figure in first half rotation current flows through ABRCD. Here B1 brush is connected with segment S1 as the positive end of supply and B2 brush is connected with segment S2 as the negative end of supply.

  • In the next half rotation shown in upper figure the induced current direction being reverse. So segments S1 and S2 also being reverse but brushes are being constant in it place with supply.
  • So here direction of current in external load R is same or unidirectional.
  • Waveform of current

Introduction to Arduino | Pin Function of Arduino | Working Process of Arduino

Introduction to Arduino | Pin Function of Arduino | Working Process of Arduino Introduction to Arduino | Pin Function of Arduino | Working Process of Arduino Introduction To Arduino Arduino is an Italian company that designs and manufactures Open Source Hardware (Microcontroller) and Open Source software or IDE (Integrated Development Environment). Arduino hardware is such a programmable computerized platform, by working on which the user can combine the hardware and software and prepare the electronic brain according to his own and can control the electronic devices from that electronic brain. What is arduino? If you want to understand more easily, then we can say that Arduino microcontroller is an empty brain, in which you can upload memory by coding or programming through arduino software, so these are called open source. Arduino works like a CPU of a board computer. Right now the microcontroller of the arduino of this time that we can take up is lik...

Variable Inductance Transducer | Classification Of Variable Inductance Transducer

Variable Inductance Transducer | Classification Of Variable Inductance Transducer Variable Inductance Transducer | Classification Of Variable Inductance Transducer These are based on a change in the magnetic characteristic of an electrical circuit in response to a measurand which may be displacement, velocity, acceleration etc. Variable inductive transducer may be classified as follows: 1.Self-generating type In this type voltage is generated because of the relative motion between a conductor and a magnetic field. These may be further classified as follows: (A)Electromagnetic type (B)Electrodynamic type (C)Eddy current type 2.Passive type In this type the motion of an object results in change in the inductance of the coils of the transducer. These may be further classified as follows: (A)Variable reluctance (B)Mutual inductance (C)Differential transfer type 1.Self-generating Type (A)Eleotromagnetic t...
