Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
Winston Churchill
DEFINITION
Principle & Theory Excitation System
Generator is an Electromechanical device that converts Mechanical energy into Electrical energy.
Definition
ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTION
A.C. generators or alternators operate on the principle of electromagnetic induction.Whenever an electric current flows through a conductor, a magnetic field is immediately brought into existence in the space surrounding the conductor. The converse is also true i.e. when a magnetic field, embracing a conductor, moves relative to the conductor, it produce a flow of electrons in the conductor. Due to this phenomenon, an e.m.f. and hence current is induced in any conductor which is cut across or is cut by a magnetic flux is known as electromagnetic induction.
FARADAYS LAW
First Law
Whenever the magnetic flux, linked with a conductor, changes, an e.m.f. is always induced in it. or Whenever a conductor cuts magnetic flux, an e.m.f. is induced in that conductor.
Second Law
The magnitude of the induced e.m.f. is equal to the rate of change of flux linkages.
GENERATION OF AC VOLTAGE
Alternating voltage may be generated by rotating a coil in the magnetic field or by rotating a magnetic field within a stationary coil. The value of the voltage generated depends on1. 2. 3. The number of turns in the coil. Strength of the magnetic field. The speed at which the coil or magnetic field rotates
