NAVIGATION FORMS AND CHECKLISTS
AC Generator
A 3 phase ac generator is called an
"Alternator". Like a DC generator, it also consists of two windings
namely, (1) Field Winding (2) Armature Winding.
However, unlike in a DC Generator, its
poles are on rotor and armature winding is on stator.
Field Winding
The field winding on poles requires DC
current which is supplied by using a pair of slip rings on the shaft and a pair
of stationary carbon brushes. The number of poles is always even. All the poles
are identical and symmetrically fitted on the rotor with alternate
polarities i.e., a "North" pole is followed by a
"South" pole which in turn is followed by another
"North" pole and so on.
Armature Winding
The stator is made up of thin laminations
of alloy. Laminated structure is used to reduce magnetic
losses and also to obtain convenience in the construction. These laminations
(also known as stampings) have been punched around the internal periphery to
produce slots. Copper windings are placed in these slots. It is known as
"Armature Winding" and "Stator Winding". It is a three
phase winding generally in 'star'. All the three terminals of the star connection,
including the fourth terminal the neutral
are brought out in the terminal box of the machine.

AC GENERATOR
Working
The generator is driven by its
engine in the correct direction at its rated speed (RPM). DC Field
current is then supplied to its field winding through the brush and
slip ring arrangements. The poles produce sufficiently strong
magnetic flux. Since the poles are rotating, the magnetic field is also
rotating. The armature windings in the stator windings cut the flux of the
rotating poles. Therefore electric power is produced in the stator winding.
Note that the frequency of the electric power is kept constant at 50 Hz (or at
60 Hz) by keeping the generator speed constant.
