    Structure and Working Principle of DC Generator and AC Generator

    Uploaded by

    Zeti Ozeii
    The document summarizes the structure and working principles of DC and AC generators in 6 sections. It describes the key components of a DC generator including the commutator and carbon brushes, and explains that a DC generator works based on Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction. It also outlines the structure of an AC generator and states it works on the same induction principle when a coil is rotated in a magnetic field.

    1. Commutator - The commutator is cylindrical in shape. Several wedge-
    shaped, hard drawn copper segments form a commutator. The functions of
    a commutator:
    -reverse current direction and allow coil to rotate in one direction

    2. Carbon brushes – carbon brushes are just a square of carbon


    used for carrying current through your electric motors. Without
    carbon brushes, the electric motors will not work.

    Working Principle of DC Generator
    A DC generator operates on the principle of Faraday’s laws of
    electromagnetic induction. According to Faraday’s law,
    whenever a conductor is placed in a fluctuating magnetic field
    (or when a conductor is moved in a magnetic field) an EMF is
    induced in the conductor. If the conductor is guided with a
    closed path, the current will get induced. The direction of the
    induced current (given by Fleming’s right-hand rule) changes
    as the direction of movement of the conductor changes.

    Working Principle of AC Generator

     It works on the principle of Faraday's law of


    electromagnetic induction. Whenever a coil is
    rotated in a uniform magnetic field about an axis
    perpendicular to the field, the magnetic flux linked
    with coil changes and an induced emf is set up
    across its ends.
