INTRODUCTION:-
A.C. Generator means Alternating current generator.
A.C. Generator is a device which is used to
convert the mechanical energy into electrical energy.
That is, an A.C generator produces alternating
current , which reverses its direction continuously
A.C generator is also known as an alternator.
A.C. generator forces electric current to flow through
an external circuit. The source of mechanical energy
may be a reciprocating or turbine steam engine,
water falling through a turbine or waterwheel, an
internal combustion engine, a wind turbine, a hand
crank, compressed air ,or any other source of
mechanical energy.
A.C. Generators provide nearly all of the power for
daily use.
PRINCIPLE OF AC GENERATOR :-
It is based on the principle of electro
magnetic induction, i.e., whenever
amount of magnetic flux linked with a
coil changes, an e.m.f. is induced in
the coil. The direction of current induced
is given by Fleming’s right hand rule.
CONSTRUCTION OF A.C. GENERATOR :-
The A.C. Generator is consist of four main parts :
(1) THE COIL (ARMATURE) :
A rectangular coil ABCD consist of a large number
of turns of copper bound over a soft iron core is called armature.
The soft iron core is used to increase the magnetic flux.
(2) MAGNETIC FIELD :
It is usually a permanent sponge magnet having concave poles.
The armature is rotated of a magnet so that axis of the armature
is perpendicular to magnetic field lines.
(3) SLIP RINGS :
Slip rings are the magnetic rings which are connected
in the terminal of the armature. These rings are rotated
with the coil and these are use to draw the current from
the generator.
(4) BRUSHES :
The brushes B1 & B2 are just touch the slip rings.
They are not rotating with the coil and these
brushes leads to the output of load resistance.
THEORY :-
1. The strong magnetic field is produced by a current flow
through the field coil of the rotor.
2. The field coil in the rotor receives excitation through the
use of slip rings and brushes.
3. Two brushes are spring-held in contact with the
slip rings to provide the continuous connection between
the field coil and the external excitation circuit.
4. The armature is contained within the windings of the stator
and is connected to the output.
5. Each time the rotor makes one complete revolution, one
complete cycle of AC is developed.
6. A generator has many turns of wire wound into the slots
of the rotor.
7. The magnitude of AC voltage generated by an AC generator
is dependent on the field strength and speed of the rotor.
8. Most generators are operated at a constant speed;
therefore, the generated voltage depends on field
excitation, or strength.
WORKING OF AC GENERATOR :-
The coil is rotated in anti-clock wise direction. In the
first half rotation the arm AB is moving outward and
CD is moving inward. So the e.m.f. is induced in the arm
AB from A to B. And in the arm CD from C to D. After half
rotation (in the second half). The arm CD is moving outward
and AB is moving inward. In this time current is induced in arm
CD from D to C. And in arm AB from B to A. In the second half
rotation the current direction is changing so in this generator
AC is produced.
EXPRESSION FOR INSTANTANEOUS
E.M.F. PRODUCED :-
Let position of the coil at any time t. It's make angle
q an angle with vertical. If w is uniform angular speed
of the coil.
Then θ =ωt
B be the strength of magnetic field n be the number of turns in the
coil and A area of the coil then magnetic flux with the coil in this
position is given by :
Φ = nBA Cosθ = nBA Cos ωt.
Differentiate w.r.t. time.

𝑑𝑡
=-(-nBA 𝜔 sin(𝜔𝑡)𝜔)
Maximum value of e.m.f. say so 𝜺°
ε = ε° sin(𝜔𝑡)
Hence, maximum value of instantaneous
e.m.f. in a AC Generator is given by
𝜺 = 𝜺° sin(𝝎𝒕)
RESULT:-
USES OF A.C. GENERATOR :-
1. Aircraft auxiliary power generation, wind generators,
high speed gas turbine generators.
2. Hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) drive systems, automotive
starter generators.
3. An ac generator, or 'alternator', is used to produce ac
voltages for transmission via the grid system or, locally,
as portable generators.
4. All of our household appliances runs on ac current.
Ex: Refrigerator, washing machines, oven, lights, fan etc.

  • 11. 5. Each time the rotor makes one complete revolution, one complete cycle of AC is developed. 6. A generator has many turns of wire wound into the slots of the rotor. 7. The magnitude of AC voltage generated by an AC generator is dependent on the field strength and speed of the rotor. 8. Most generators are operated at a constant speed; therefore, the generated voltage depends on field excitation, or strength.
  • 12. WORKING OF AC GENERATOR :- The coil is rotated in anti-clock wise direction. In the first half rotation the arm AB is moving outward and CD is moving inward. So the e.m.f. is induced in the arm AB from A to B. And in the arm CD from C to D. After half rotation (in the second half). The arm CD is moving outward and AB is moving inward. In this time current is induced in arm CD from D to C. And in arm AB from B to A. In the second half rotation the current direction is changing so in this generator AC is produced.
  • 13. EXPRESSION FOR INSTANTANEOUS E.M.F. PRODUCED :- Let position of the coil at any time t. It's make angle q an angle with vertical. If w is uniform angular speed of the coil. Then θ =ωt B be the strength of magnetic field n be the number of turns in the coil and A area of the coil then magnetic flux with the coil in this position is given by : Φ = nBA Cosθ = nBA Cos ωt.
  • 14. Differentiate w.r.t. time. 𝑑∅ 𝑑𝑡 =nBA 𝑑 cos(𝜔𝑡) 𝑑𝑥 𝑑∅ 𝑑𝑡 = nBA-sin(𝜔𝑡)𝜔 𝑑∅ 𝑑𝑡 = -nBA 𝜔 sin(𝜔𝑡)𝜔 𝜀=- 𝑑∅ 𝑑𝑡 =-(-nBA 𝜔 sin(𝜔𝑡)𝜔) Maximum value of e.m.f. say so 𝜺° ε = ε° sin(𝜔𝑡)
  • 15. Hence, maximum value of instantaneous e.m.f. in a AC Generator is given by 𝜺 = 𝜺° sin(𝝎𝒕) RESULT:-
  • 16. USES OF A.C. GENERATOR :- 1. Aircraft auxiliary power generation, wind generators, high speed gas turbine generators. 2. Hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) drive systems, automotive starter generators. 3. An ac generator, or 'alternator', is used to produce ac voltages for transmission via the grid system or, locally, as portable generators. 4. All of our household appliances runs on ac current. Ex: Refrigerator, washing machines, oven, lights, fan etc.
