  2. Rotary converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_converter

    The rotary converter can be thought of as a motor–generator, where the two machines share a single rotating armature and set of field coils. The basic construction of the rotary converter consists of a DC generator (dynamo) with a set of slip rings tapped into its rotor windings at evenly spaced intervals. When a dynamo is spun the electric ...

  3. Linear alternator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_alternator

    A linear alternator is most commonly used to convert back-and-forth motion directly into electrical energy. This eliminates the need for a crank or linkage to convert a reciprocating motion to a rotary motion in order to drive a rotary generator.

  4. Electric generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_generator

    A generator using permanent magnets (PMs) is sometimes called a magneto, or a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG). Armature: The power-producing component of an electrical machine. In a generator, alternator, or dynamo, the armature windings generate the electric current, which provides power to an external circuit.

    "Dynamo Electric Machine" (end view, partly section, U.S. patent 284,110) A dynamo is an electrical generator that creates direct current using a commutator.Dynamos were the first electrical generators capable of delivering power for industry, and the foundation upon which many other later electric-power conversion devices were based, including the electric motor, the alternating-current ...

  6. Two-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-phase_electric_power

    A simplified diagram of a two-phase alternator [1] Two-phase electrical power was an early 20th-century polyphase alternating current electric power distribution system. Two circuits were used, with voltage phases differing by one-quarter of a cycle, 90°. Usually circuits used four wires, two for each phase.

    As an example, consider the use of a 10 hp, 1760 r/min, 440 V, three-phase induction motor (a.k.a. induction electrical machine in an asynchronous generator regime) as asynchronous generator. The full-load current of the motor is 10 A and the full-load power factor is 0.8.
