  2. Alternator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternator

    The main alternator is the larger of the two sections, and the smaller one is the exciter. The exciter has stationary field coils and a rotating armature (power coils). The main alternator uses the opposite configuration with a rotating field and stationary armature. A bridge rectifier, called the rotating rectifier assembly, is mounted on the ...

    Alternator (silver) mounted on a V8 engine Alternator voltage regulator (brushes are worn out) An alternator is a type of electric generator used in modern automobiles to charge the battery and to power the electrical system when its engine is running. Until the 1960s, automobiles used DC dynamo generators with commutators.

    to test series and interpoles (commutating) fields from a DC motor; to determine phasing and polarity in multiwinding armatures; to test rotors in rotating frequency changers, as well as in wound rotors; to test shorts between turns in taped coils before installation into an armature or a stator; as a low voltage isolation transformer

  6. Linear alternator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_alternator

    A linear alternator is essentially a linear motor used as an electrical generator. An alternator is a type of alternating current (AC) electrical generator. The devices are often physically equivalent. The principal difference is in how they are used and which direction the energy flows.

  7. Compensated pulsed alternator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compensated_pulsed_alternator

    A compensated pulsed alternator, [1] also known by the portmanteau compulsator, is a form of power supply. As the name suggests, it is an alternator that is "compensated" (see below) to make it better at delivering pulses of electrical energy than a normal alternator.
