The DC Generator generate the AC supply only in Armature
not DC Supply.But we want Dc source , so want one converter
thats why we use commutator.In shortly we can say its
converts AC source to DC source.
its obvious t rectifies ac to dc..bcoz the current produced
by the dc generator will b of sinusoidal form obviously ac
since it s a dc generator it should produce only dc
current..in order 2 convert it to dc v r using this
commutator.
it the part of dc generator.in dc generator two half rings
are used the purpose of these rings is to prevent the
direction of current as in ac thee are caled as commotator
Dear all please note commutator is not a converter, all are
telling dc ot ac, we already giving dc supply to motor
through motor terminals at A1 & A2 (ie.+ & -) it is
transformed to rotor winding or bars through Brush and
commutator.
DC supply - Motor TB A1&A2 - Carbon Brush - Commutator -
Rotor winding or copper bars
in dc motor,rotor provides an alternating flux for the
reason of provides rotating torque so that need for ac
supply to rotor..in order to that comutator converts the ac
from dc supply to rotor... so commutator need for dc motor..
first of all ,it is dc motor not a generator.
We are already giving it a dc current ,so normally there
should not have been any need of commutator'
but as the armature is rotating, with every half
rotation ,the direction of rotation is reversed.
so it should be rotating in anti_clock wise direction for
half cycle and in clock_wise direction for next half cycle.
to cater this ,the direction of current should be reversed
after every half cycle.
that's why a commutator is used to change the direction of
current to cater the problem of torque
1> what r different types of fault in cables? How will u
locate and test these faults?
2> why earth wire is provided on top throughout the
transmission line. why not only on towers? How much area it
can protect?
3> what r different types of transmission losses? How power
loss can be minimized?
4> what is the % of power loss on transmission lines?
