• There are Two types of Generators
1. D.C Generator:- The Generator which converts the
Mechanical Energy into D.C Form of Electrical Energy is
called D.C Generator.

Bidirectional Emf(AC) into Unidirectional Emf (DC) .

27. GENERATION OF AC VOLTAGE
• As Shown in Fig the Coil is in Rotating Form.
• The EMF is Generated by Rotation of Coil.

39. Characteristics of DC generators
The speed of a d.c. machine operated as a generator is fixed by the
prime mover. For general-purpose operation, the prime mover is
equipped with a speed governor so that the speed of the generator is
practically constant. Under such condition, the generator
performance deals primarily with the relation between excitation,
terminal voltage and load.
40. These relations can be best exhibited graphically by means of
curves known as generator characteristics. These characteristics
show at a glance the behaviour of the generator under different
load conditions.
D.C. Generator Characteristics The following are the three most
important characteristics of a d.c. generator:
41. 1. Open Circuit Characteristic (O.C.C.):
This curve shows the relation between the generated e.m.f. at no-
load (E0) and the field current (If) at constant speed.
It is also known as magnetic characteristic or no-load saturation
curve.
Its shape is practically the same for all generators whether
separately or self-excited. The data for O.C.C. curve are obtained
experimentally by operating the generator at no load and constant
speed and recording the change in terminal voltage as the field
current is varied.
42. 2. Internal or Total characteristic (E/Ia)
This curve shows the relation between the generated e.m.f. on load
(E) and the armature current (Ia).
The e.m.f. E is less than E0 due to the demagnetizing effect of
armature reaction.
Therefore, this curve will lie below the open circuit characteristic
(O.C.C.). The internal characteristic is of interest chiefly to the
designer.
43. It cannot be obtained directly by experiment. It is because a
voltmeter cannot read the e.m.f. generated on load due to the
voltage drop in armature resistance.
The internal characteristic can be obtained from external
characteristic if winding resistances are known because armature
reaction effect is included in both characteristics.
44. 3. External characteristic (V/IL):
This curve shows the relation between the terminal voltage (V) and
load current (IL).
The terminal voltage V will be less than E due to voltage drop in the
armature circuit.
Therefore, this curve will lie below the internal characteristic.
This characteristic is very important in determining the suitability of
a generator for a given purpose.
It can be obtained by making simultaneous measurements of
terminal voltage and load current (with voltmeter and ammeter) of a
loaded generator.
45. Definition of Stator
The stator is the static part of the motor. The main function of the
stator is to generate the rotating magnetic field. The stator frame,
stator core and stator winding are the three parts of the stator. The
stator core support and protect the three-phase winding of the stator.
High-grade silicon steel stamping makes the core of the stator.
46. Definition of Rotor
The rotating part of the motor is known as the rotor. The rotor core and
the rotor winding are the part of the rotor. The winding of the rotor is
excited by the DC supply. The squirrel cage and the phase wound are
the types of the rotor.
47. The core of the squirrel cage rotor is made of the cylindrical iron
core.
The core has a semi-circular slot on their outer surface on which
the copper or aluminium conductors are placed.
The conductors are short-circuited at the ends with the help of the
aluminium or copper rings.
48. Working of Rotor & Stator
The stator generates the rotating magnetic field because of the three-
phase supply.
If the rotor is in the standstill condition, then the electromagnetic
force induces in them because of the electromagnetic induction
phenomena.
The electromagnetic induction is the phenomena in which the emf
induced in the current carrying conductor because of the variable
magnetic field.
The current induces in the rotor which causes the rotor to move.
49. Key Differences Between Stator and Rotor
The stator is the stationary part of the machine, whereas the rotor is
the movable part of the machine.
The stator core, stator winding and the outer frame are the three
parts of the stator whereas the rotor core and field winding are the
parts of the rotor.
The three-phase supply is given to the winding of the stator. The
rotor is excited by the DC supply.
50. The winding arrangement of the stator is more complex as compared
to the rotor.
The stator winding is highly insulated because high voltage induces
in it. Whereas, the rotor has low insulation.
The size of the stator winding is large for carrying the heavy current
as compared to the field winding.
The cooling system of the stator is good as compared to the rotor
Because the stator is stationary.
The friction loss is less in the rotor as compared to the stator because
of its low weight.
