  2. Motor–generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorgenerator

    The motorgenerator set may contain a large flywheel to improve its ride-through; however, consideration must be taken in this application as the motorgenerator will lose speed and may draw a large current when power returns or the circuit-breaker is re-closed. If the speed loss is excessive (the power outage is too long), the re-closure ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_machine

    In electrical engineering, electric machine is a general term for machines using electromagnetic forces, such as electric motors, electric generators, and others.They are electromechanical energy converters: an electric motor converts electricity to mechanical power while an electric generator converts mechanical power to electricity.

  4. Electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_motor

    Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of torque applied on the motor's shaft. An electric generator is mechanically identical to an electric motor, but operates in reverse, converting mechanical energy into electrical energy.

    "Dynamo Electric Machine" (end view, partly section, U.S. patent 284,110) 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 ...

  6. Commutator (electric) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commutator_(electric)

    In a motor, the armature current causes the fixed magnetic field to exert a rotational force, or a torque, on the winding to make it turn. In a generator, the mechanical torque applied to the shaft maintains the motion of the armature winding through the stationary magnetic field, inducing a current in the winding.

    The patent application filed in July 1887. His first generator of this type went into operation in October 1887. [26] [27] 1887, Charles S. Bradley Motor/generators with a Gramme ring, having multiple radial connectors, led off at corresponding symmetrical points to slip-rings. He thus obtained alternate currents differing in phase.
