  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 require a large amount of current on re-closure, if prior to the pull-out torque [clarification needed] is achieved, resulting in a shut down. The in-rush current during re ...

  3. Electric generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_generator

    Induction AC motors may be used as generators, turning mechanical energy into electric current. Induction generators operate by mechanically turning their rotor faster than the simultaneous speed, giving negative slip. A regular AC non-simultaneous motor usually can be used as a generator, without any changes to its parts.

  4. Gramme machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gramme_machine

    The Gramme machine was the first powerful electric motor useful as more than a toy or laboratory curiosity. Today some elements of this design forms the basis of nearly all DC electric motors. Gramme's use of multiple commutator contacts with multiple overlapped coils, and his innovation of using a ring armature, was an improvement on earlier ...

  5. Electric machine - Wikipedia

    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.

  6. Induction generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_generator

    An induction generator produces electrical power when its rotor is turned faster than the synchronous speed. For a four-pole motor (two pairs of poles on stator) powered by a 60 Hz source, the synchronous speed is 1800 rotations per minute (rpm) and 1500 RPM powered at 50 Hz. The motor always turns slightly slower than the synchronous speed.

  7. Electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_motor

    An industrial electric motor . An electric motor is a machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.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.

    Aksa Power Generation is a Turkish corporation, originating in 1968 as an electrical motor company by its founder Ali Metin Kazanci. Aksa manufactured its first industrial generator engine-generator in 1984. In 1994, Aksa Power Generation became one of 8 corporations under the Kazanci Holding. [2]
