2. Vortex Bladeless - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex_Bladeless

   A small generator can only produce a small amount of power. It takes a lot of energy (movement) to make a generator turn. The biggest are generally turned by massive amounts of falling water, heat, steam or air. There is very little movement in the Vortex "turbine". All the movement at the top doesn't translate to much down where the generator is.

3. Electric generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_generator

   A generator using permanent magnets (PMs) is sometimes called a magneto, or a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG). 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.

4. Dynamo - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamo

   "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 ...

5. 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.

6. Alternator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternator

   The DC generator generates a small amount of electricity, just enough to excite the field coils of the connected alternator to generate electricity. A variation of this system is a type of alternator that uses direct current from a battery for initial excitation upon start-up, after which the alternator becomes self-excited.

7. 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.

9. Single-phase generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-phase_generator

   Elementary generator is an example of single-phase generators with two poles. Single-phase generator (also known as single-phase alternator) is an alternating current electrical generator that produces a single, continuously alternating voltage. Single-phase generators can be used to generate power in single-phase electric power systems.
