  2. Alternator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternator

    Alternators made in 1909 by Ganz Works in the power generating hall of a Russian hydroelectric station (photograph by Prokudin-Gorsky, 1911). [1]An alternator (or synchronous generator) is an electrical generator that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy in the form of alternating current. [2]

  3. Electric generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_generator

    Armature: The power-producing component of an electrical machine. In a generator, alternator, or dynamo, the armature windings generate the electric current, which provides power to an external circuit. The armature can be on either the rotor or the stator, depending on the design, with the field coil or magnet on the other part.

  4. Linear alternator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_alternator

    An alternator is a type of alternating current (AC) electrical generator. The devices are often physically equivalent. The principal difference is in how they are used and which direction the energy flows. An alternator converts mechanical energy to electrical energy, whereas a motor

  5. Alternator (automotive) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternator_(automotive)

    Alternator (silver) mounted on a V8 engine Alternator voltage regulator (brushes are worn out) An alternator is a type of electric generator used in modern automobiles to charge the battery and to power the electrical system when its engine is running. Until the 1960s, automobiles used DC dynamo generators with commutators.

  6. Dynamo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamo

    A dynamo is an electrical generator that creates direct current using a commutator. Dynamos were the first electrical generators capable of delivering power for industry, and the foundation upon which many other later electric-power conversion devices were based, including the electric motor, the alternating-current alternator, and the rotary ...

  7. Synchronization (alternating current) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronization...

    In an alternating current (AC) electric power system, synchronization is the process of matching the frequency, phase and voltage of a generator or other source to an electrical grid in order to transfer power. If two unconnected segments of a grid are to be connected to each other, they cannot safely exchange AC power until they are synchronized.

  8. Magneto - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magneto

    The development of modern rare-earth magnets makes the simple magneto alternator a more practical proposition as a power generator, as these permit a greatly increased field strength. As the magnets are compact and of light weight, they generally form the rotor, so the output windings can be placed on the stator, avoiding the need for brushgear.

  9. Alexanderson alternator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexanderson_alternator

    Alexanderson 200 kW motor–alternator set installed at the US Navy's New Brunswick, NJ station, 1920. In 1904, Reginald Fessenden contracted with General Electric for an alternator that generated a frequency of 100,000 hertz [citation needed] for continuous wave radio. The alternator was designed by Ernst Alexanderson.
