Introduction of DC Generator
Introduction of DC Generator A DC generator, also known as a dynamo or a DC machine, is an electrical device that converts mechanical energy into direct current (DC) electrical energy. It is a type of electric generator that generates a continuous flow of electrical power, which is essential for a wide range of applications, from powering small electronic devices to providing electrical power for large industrial systems. The basic principle of a DC generator is based on Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, which states that a change in the magnetic field in a closed loop of wire induces an electromotive force (EMF) in the wire. In a DC generator, a magnetic field is created by a set of stationary magnets, while a rotor with a set of conductive coils rotates inside the magnetic field. As the rotor rotates, the magnetic field induces a current in the coils, which is then collected and converted into DC electrical energy by a set of brushes and slip rings. There are two
