What is It -- READ THIS --

Have fun in learning Simple Electric Motor and Generator…

You have probably experienced when at one moment you’re watching

your favorite program on TV and on the next minute you’re groping in the dark
because of power interruption. At such time, you may have wished you had a candle
or a flashlight so that you could see in the dark. How can you make a steady flow of
electricity?

What is a generator?

• A generator converts Mechanical Energy to Electrical Energy.

• It produces an electric current when a coil of wire is wrapped around an iron
core and rotated near a magnet.
How does a generator work?

• An electric generator is a device that converts mechanical energy obtained from

an external source into electrical energy as the output.

Principle of Electromagnetic Induction in

Generator

• Modern generators can be attributed to Michael

Faraday’s principle of
ELECTROMAGNETICINDUCTION. Faraday
discovered that when a conductor moves in a
magnetic field, electrical charges could be
created and directed to create a flow of current.

• At its most basic, an electrical generator is Photograph of Michael Faraday by John

Watkins on commons.wikimedia.org
nothing more than an electromagnet – moving fro m https://tinyurl.com/MFaraday
wire near a magnet to direct the flow of
electricity. It’s similar to how a pump pushes water through a pipe.

• It is important to understand that a generator does not actually “create”

electrical energy. Instead, it uses the mechanical energy supplied to it to force
the movement of electric charges present in the wire of its windings through an
external electric circuit.

• This flow of electric charges constitutes the output electric current supplied by
the generator. This mechanism can be understood by considering the generator
to be similar to a water pump, which causes the flow of water but does not
actually create the water flowing through it.

7
How water, wind, and steam make electricity through generator?

1. Water – Hydropower plants capture the energy of falling water to generate

electricity. A turbine converts the kinetic energy of the falling water into
mechanical energy. Then a generator converts the mechanical energy from the
turbine into electrical energy.
2. Wind - The wind turns the blades of the windmill, known as the turbine, which,
in turn, spins the shaft that turns the coil inside the magnet, known as the
generator, and it produces the electricity.

3. Fossil Fuel/Steam/Heat - Oil is burned to heat water which makes steam.

Steam moves the turbine blades that turn a shaft inside the generator. The shaft spins
the coil of wire inside a magnet in the generator that produces a current of electricity.

What are the main components of a DC generator?

A DC generator is an electrical machine which converts mechanical energy into direct

current electricity.
1. Stator - The main function of the
stator is to provide magnetic fields where
the coil spins. A stator includes two
magnets with opposite polarity facing
each other. These magnets are located to
fit in the region of the rotor.
2. Rotor - A rotor in a DC machine
includes slotted iron laminations with
slots that are stacked to shape a
cylindrical armature core. The function
of the lamination is to decrease the loss
caused due to “Eddy Current”.
3. Commutator - A commutator
works like a rectifier that changes AC
voltage to DC voltage within the
armature winding. It is designed with a
copper segment, and each copper
segment is protected from each other
with the help of mica sheets. It is located Hydraulic turbine and electrical generator,
on the shaft of the machine. cutaway view on commons.wikemedia.org from
https://comm ons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Water
_turbine_(en_2).svg
4. Brushes – The Brushes are in
constant contact with the commutator and are attached to the wires leading from the
generator. The commutator spins while the brushes remain stationary, transferring
current from the commutator.
5. Shaft – The shaft transfers mechanical energy to the generator and turns the
coil through the magnetic field. The shaft may be turned by a turbine that operates
with water, steam or air, or by other means.
Difference between the AC Generator and the DC Generator

• AC generator produces AC electrical power whereas DC generator

produces DC electrical power
• In DC generator the current flows in one direction whereas in the AC
generators current reverses periodically.
• In DC generator split rings are used they wear out quickly in AC
generator slip rings are used, so they have high efficiency.
• AC generators are used for small domestic applications whereas DC
generators used to power large motors.

8
What are the top Uses of Generator?

• Back -Up power for your house

• Stand-by power for businesses
• Temporary power in a construction site
• Permanent power to a farm
• Helping main source of electricity to supply the total power required
• Pop concerts, events, and exhibitions
• Caravans/Camping in remote locations Outdoor catering facilities

What is an electric motor?

Figure 1: “Electric Motor” illustrated by Richard C.

Paragas
ELECTRIC MOTOR

 Anything that changes electricity into motion, meaning electrical energy into
mechanical energy is called an electric motor.

Basic Principles

 Danish physicist HANS CHRISTIAN ØRSTED

began a new scientific era when he discovered
that electricity and magnetism are linked. He
showed by experiment that an electric current
flowing through a wire could move a nearby
magnet.
H.C. Ørsted by Christoffer
Wilhelm Eckersberg on
commons.wikimedia.org from
https://tinyurl.com/HCOrsted
 The discovery of ELECTROMAGNETISM set the
stage for the eventual development of our modern technology-based world.

How do Electric Motors work?

 Motors work through the principles of ELECTROMAGNETISM. If you run

electricity through a wire, it creates a magnetic field. If you coil the wire
around a rod and run electricity through the wire, it creates a magnetic field
around the rod. One end of the rod will have a north magnetic pole and the
other will have a south pole. Opposite poles attract one another, like poles
repel. When you surround that rod with other magnets, the rod will rotate
from the attractive and repulsive forces.

What are the parts of an electric motor?

Electric motor designs can vary quite a lot,

though in general they have three main
parts: a rotor, a stator and a commutator. Figure 2: “Parts of the Electric Motor” illustrated by
These three parts use the attractive Richard C. Paragas
and repulsive forces of electromagnetism, causing the motor to spin continually
as long as it receives a steady flow of electric current.

9
A. THE STATOR
Every electric motor has two essential parts; one stationary, and one that rotates. The
stationary part is the stator. Though configurations vary, the stator is most often a
permanent magnet or row of magnets lining the edge of the motor casing, which is
usually a round plastic drum.

B. THE ROTOR
Inserted into the stator is the rotor, usually consisting of copper wire wound into a coil
around an axle. When electric current flows through the coil, the resulting magnetic
field pushes against the field created by the stator, and makes the axle spin

C. THE COMMUTATOR
1. BASICS – An electric motor has another important component, the
commutator, which sits at one end of the coil. It is a metal ring divided into two
halves. It reverses the electrical current in the coil each time the coil rotates half a
turn. The commutator periodically reverses the current between the rotor and the
external circuit, or the battery. This ensures that the ends of coils do not move in
opposite directions, and ensures that the axle spins in one direction.

2. MAGNETIC POLES – BRUSHES AND TERMINALS. At one end of the motor are
the brushes and the terminals. They are at the opposite end from where the rotor exits
the motor casing. The brushes send electrical current to the commutator and are
typically made of graphite. The terminals are the locations where the battery attaches
to the motor and sends the currents to spin the rotor.

Difference between the AC Motor and the DC Motor

• In the AC Motor, the source of power is AC mains supply whereas in DC motor
power is obtained from batteries.
• In AC motors no commutators and brushes are used whereas in DC motors
these play an important part in their operation.
• In AC motors the armature is stationary and the magnetic field rotates whereas
in DC motors it is vice versa.
• AC motors are suitable for large industrial applications whereas DC motors are
suitable for domestic applications.
APPLICATIONS OF ELECTRIC
MOTOR

Electric motors are extremely

important in modern-day life. They
are used in food processors, vacuum
cleaners, dishwashers,
computer printers, fax machines,
video recorders, machine tools,
printing presses, automobiles,
subway systems, sewage treatment
plants, and water pumping stations,
to mention only a few
applications. Figure 3: Example of the applications of Electric motor in automobile and food
processor/blender.

Comparison of Motor and Generator

A motor and generator perform opposite functions, but their fundamental structure is
the same. Their structure is a “coil mounted on an axle within a magnetic field”.
An electric motor is used to produce rotational motion from electrical supply. In a
motor, an electric current is passed through the coil. The coil then creates a magnetic
field that interacts with the already existing magnetic field. This interaction forces the
coil to rotate.

10
For a motor, the input energy is electrical energy and the useful output energy is
mechanical energy.

The generator is used to produce an electric current from rotational motion (on large
scale power stations a “turbine” is used to provide this rotation). In a generator, the
rotation causes the coil to rotate inside the magnetic field. This induces an alternating
current in the coil.

For generator the input energy is mechanical energy and the useful output energy
is electrical energy.
In power stations, it is usually the magnet which is attached to the axel and rotates
with the coils surrounding the magnet. However, the end result is the same.

The motor and the generator are almost similar from the construction point of
view, as both have stator and rotor.
The differences between Motor and Generator are as follows:

• The motor converts electric energy into mechanical energy, whereas, generator
does the opposite.
• Electricity is used in the motor, but the generator produces the electricity.
• An example of motor is an electric car or bike where electric current is supplied
to the machine or device and it gets converted to mechanical motion and, as a
result, the car or bike moves. The example of generator is that in power
stations, the turbine is used as a device which converts mechanical energy from
the force of water falling from the dam to generate electric energy.
