MOTOR AND GENERATOR Flashcards
3 factors that affect the generator of emf
- Magnet
- Armature winding
- Relative motion
Converts ME to EE
Generator
Current produced by relative motion of coil or magnet
Induced current
Supplies electrical energy and develops torque
Motor
DC Machines
Motor and generators
Parts of dynamo
- Stator
- Rotor
- End plates
Outer part of machine which is stationary
Stator
Inner shaft of the machine
Rotor
Yoke
The outer frame which is made up of steel cast or iron
Provides mechanical support for the poles
Yoke
Field Windings
Made up of insulated coils of magnet wires. It produces magnetic flux to be cut by armature windings
Pole Core
Made up of laminated steel sheets which holds the field windings
Pole shoe
Use to reduce the reluctance of he air gap, to provide mechanical support to the field windings, and to establish the desired flux distribution.
Rotor of a DC Machine is called
Armature
Carries current crossing the field
Armature winding
