  2. Armature (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armature_(electrical)

    Armature reaction is essential in amplidyne rotating amplifiers. Armature reaction drop is the effect of a magnetic field on the distribution of the flux under main poles of a generator. [5] Since an armature is wound with coils of wire, a magnetic field is set up in the armature whenever a current flows in the coils.

  3. Compensation winding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compensation_Winding

    A compensation winding in a DC shunt motor is a winding in the field pole face plate that carries armature current to reduce stator field distortion.Its purpose is to reduce brush arcing and erosion in DC motors that are operated with weak fields, variable heavy loads or reversing operation such as steel-mill motors.

  4. 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.

  5. Commutator (electric) - Wikipedia

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

    For a single armature winding, when the shaft has made one-half complete turn, the winding is now connected so that current flows through it in the opposite of the initial direction. 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 ...

    The Kanchrapara Railway Workshop is one of the major workshops of Indian Railways, and is located in the Sealdah division of the Eastern Railway zone.It is divided into two complexes — Loco Complex and Carriage Complex.

  7. Permanent magnet motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_magnet_motor

    A permanent magnet motor is a type of electric motor that uses permanent magnets for the field excitation and a wound armature. The permanent magnets can either be stationary or rotating; interior or exterior to the armature for a radial flux machine or layered with the armature for an axial flux topology.

  8. Single-phase generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-phase_generator

    The design of revolving armature generators is to have the armature part on a rotor and the magnetic field part on stator. A basic design, called elementary generator, [3] is to have a rectangular loop armature to cut the lines of force between the north and south poles. By cutting lines of force through rotation, it produces electric current.

  9. Coil winding technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coil_winding_technology

    In electrical engineering, coil winding is the manufacture of electromagnetic coils.Coils are used as components of circuits, and to provide the magnetic field of motors, transformers, and generators, and in the manufacture of loudspeakers and microphones.
