  2. Electric generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_generator

    A homopolar generator is a DC electrical generator comprising an electrically conductive disc or cylinder rotating in a plane perpendicular to a uniform static magnetic field. A potential difference is created between the center of the disc and the rim (or ends of the cylinder), the electrical polarity depending on the direction of rotation and ...

  3. Rotary converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_converter

    1909 500 kW Westinghouse rotary converter. A rotary converter is a type of electrical machine which acts as a mechanical rectifier, inverter or frequency converter.. Rotary converters were used to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), or DC to AC power, before the advent of chemical or solid state power rectification and inverting.

  4. Electric machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_machine

    In electrical engineering, electric machine is a general term for machines using electromagnetic forces, such as electric motors, electric generators, and others.They are electromechanical energy converters: an electric motor converts electricity to mechanical power while an electric generator converts mechanical power to electricity.

  5. Stator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stator

    Rotor (lower left) and stator (upper right) of an electric motor Stator of a 3-phase AC-motor Stator of a brushless DC motor from computer cooler fan.. The stator is the stationary part of a rotary system, [1] found in electric generators, electric motors, sirens, mud motors, or biological rotors (such as bacterial flagella or ATP synthase).

  6. Free-piston linear generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-piston_linear_generator

    The free-piston linear generator (FPLG) uses chemical energy from fuel to drive magnets through a stator and converts this linear motion into electric energy. Because of its versatility, low weight and high efficiency, it can be used in a wide range of applications, although it is of special interest to the mobility industry as range extenders for electric vehicles.

  7. Commutator (electric) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commutator_(electric)

    Parts: (A) commutator, (B) brush, (C) rotor windings, (D) stator (field) windings, (E) brush guides, (F) electrical connections. A commutator is a rotary electrical switch in certain types of electric motors and electrical generators that periodically reverses the current direction between the rotor and the external circuit.
