Why DC excitation is used for alternators? Why cant it be AC?
Answer Posted / saeid
In theory, there are 3 kinds of generator or alternator
that are synchronus, induction and DC.
So the question is why DC excitaion is used for
alternators. The answer is becuase this a synchronus
generator. And that is philosophy of this kind. For example
if you use AC Excitaion it will not be synchrounus but it
will be induction generator

Given a collection of points P in the plane, a 1-set is a point in P that can be separated from the rest by a line; i.e. the point lies on one side of the line while the others lie on the other side. The number of 1-sets of P is denoted by n1(P). The maximum value of n1(P) over all configurations P of 19 points in the plane is 18
