Consider two compound generators 1 and 2 running in parallel as shown in the Fig. 1. As the voltage characteristics for the…

For stable parallel operation, the most suitable type of d.c. generator is shunt generator as it has slightly drooping characteristics. If there…

Consider two d.c. series generators in parallel as shown in the Fig. 1. Fig. 1 If no load voltages  E1 and  E2 of the…

Let       P = Number of poles of the generator ? = Flux produced by each pole in webers (Wb) N = Speed…

In case of d.c. generating stations, there are heavy thick copper bars which acts as positive and negative terminals for the entire…

The generating station either of d.c. type or of a.c. type, normally consists of number of smaller generators operating in parallel instead…

Principle of Operation of a D.C. Generator All the generators works on a principle of dynamically induced e.m.f. This principle nothing but…

Basically there are two physical types of the windings. These are i) Single layer winding ii) Double layer winding. The sequential arrangement…

We have seen that there are number of armature conductors, which are connected in specific manner as per the requirements, which is…

a) Conductor : It is the actual armature conductor which is under the influence of the magnetic field, placed in the armature slot.…
