2. Magneto - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magneto

   Commutator of the Woolrich Electrical Generator. The first electrical machine used for an industrial process was a magneto, the Woolrich Electrical Generator. [3] In 1842 John Stephen Woolrich was granted UK patent 9431 for the use of an electrical generator in electroplating, rather than batteries.

3. Magnetohydrodynamic generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetohydrodynamic_generator

   First, they cause simple parallel field lines. Second, because the fluid is processed in a disk, the magnet can be closer to the fluid, and in this geometry, magnetic field strengths increase as the 7th power of distance. Finally, the generator is compact, so the magnet is smaller and uses a much smaller percentage of the generated power.

5. Explosively pumped flux compression generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explosively_pumped_flux...

   The magnetic flux threading the ring, represented by five field lines, is reduced by the same ratio as the area of the ring. The variation of the magnetic flux induces a current (red arrows) in the ring by Faraday's law of induction, which in turn creates a new magnetic field circling the wire (green arrows) by Ampere's circuital law. The new ...

6. Vibration-powered generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibration-powered_generator

   Generally, the coil is made using a diamagnetic material as these materials have weaker interactions with the magnet that would dampen the vibration. The main advantage of this type of generator is that it is able to produce more power than the piezoelectric generators. [1] Electromagnetic based vibration-powered generators have been ...

7. Telephone magneto - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telephone_magneto

   A telephone magneto is a hand-cranked electrical generator that uses permanent magnets to produce alternating current from a rotating armature. In early telegraphy , magnetos were used to power instruments, while in telephony they were used to generate electrical current to drive electromechanical ringers in telephone sets and activate signals ...

8. Magnetohydrodynamics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetohydrodynamics

   The liquid outer core moves in the presence of the magnetic field and eddies are set up into the same due to the Coriolis effect. [18] These eddies develop a magnetic field which boosts Earth's original magnetic field—a process which is self-sustaining and is called the geomagnetic dynamo. [19] Reversals of Earth's magnetic field

9. Z-pinch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-pinch

   In fusion power research, the Z-pinch (zeta pinch) is a type of plasma confinement system that uses an electric current in the plasma to generate a magnetic field that compresses it (see pinch). These systems were originally referred to simply as pinch or Bennett pinch (after Willard Harrison Bennett ), but the introduction of the θ-pinch ...
