    The document discusses the principle, construction, and classification of DC generators. It explains that a DC generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy through electromagnetic induction. The key parts of a DC generator are the yoke, field system with pole cores and winding, armature system with core and winding, commutator, and carbon brushes. The armature winding rotates in the magnetic field created by the field winding to generate an induced AC voltage, which the commutator converts to DC voltage for external use.

    DC Generator

    An electro-mechanical energy conversion device (or electrical machine) that converts


    mechanical energy or power ( T) into DC electrical energy or power (EI) is called DC
    generator.

    Working Principle
    The basic principle of a DC generator is electro-magnetic induction i.e., “When a conductor cuts across
    the magnetic field, an emf is induced in it.
    OR

    “Whenever, magnetic flux linked with a conductor changes, there is an induced emf in that conductor”

    6/5/2021
    Principle

    Faradays Law of Electromagnetic Induction

    “ Whenever magnetic flux linked with a conductor


    changes, an emf is induced in the conductor”

    Yoke
    • The outer frame of a dc machine
    is called as yoke. It is made up of
    cast iron or steel. It not only
    provides mechanical strength to
    the whole assembly but also
    carries the magnetic flux
    produced by the field winding.
    So It should have good Magnetic
    properties such as high
    permeability and low reluctance
    etc.

    Field System
    Magnetic Pole
    Pole core and Pole shoe

    Function:
    Pole Core: to house field winding

    Pole Shoe: to spread uniform Magnetic flux


    in the air gap

    Field System...
    • Magnetic Pole

    Pole winding (field Winding)


    Attached to the yoke by fasteners as
    shown
    Direction of current entering the pole
    winding will decide whether the
    pole is North or South.
    All pole windings are connected in
    series and supplied with DC supply
    and there will be alternate North
    and South pole.
    Collectively these pole windings is
    known as field winding ( F- FF)

    Armature System

    Armature core:

    Solid and Laminated

    Laminated: laminated sheet Stampings

    Functions: to house armature winding

    Armature System….

    • Armature Winding
    winding is done in all slots of the
    armature on the basis of some
    pattern known as Lap and Wave
    winding. ( A-AA)
    Function: when rotated in air gap
    of dc generator it induces emf in
    it.

    6/5/2021
    Commutator
    The induced emf in the armature
    The number of
    coils is ac in nature, to convert this commutator
    ac emf in to dc and to tap it out for segments is equal
    external use an arrangement is used to number of
    armature coils
    which is commonly known as
    commutator.

    Commutaor is attached
    permanently to the
    shaft

    Function ?

    Carbon Brushes
    Carbon brushes being
    electrically conducting
    and is used to tap the
    rotating emf available on
    commutator segments
    to the external use.

    Why carbon for


    brushes?

    Output ( Electrical Energy)


    Across Armature (A1– A2 )

    Field Winding (F1 – F2 ) needs


    DC Supply to induce magnetic
    Poles inside the yoke. This is
    known as Excitation of Field
    winding.
