In alternator generally we give DC voltage to field of
alternator but field (excitor)produce Ac & converts into DC
by rotating rectifier(RR ) then fed to rotor .my question
is why we cannot give dc voltage directly to rotor instead
of Excitor & RR ?

Answer Posted / arun pandey

First-Voltage regulation of AC is easier than DC which is
controlled and regulared by Automatic Voltage Regulator.
Second-DC Power given to alternator for field excitation
having very high current,for feeding this type of supply
system size and cost of exciter becomes excessive high and
size of Automatic Voltage Regulator and its heat
dessipation will cost also that why it become in efficient
give dc voltage directly to rotor instead
of Excitor & RR ?

1- XC and the RC time constant are both measures of the reaction of C to a change in ____? 2-The power factor is a numerical ratio with a value between 0 and 1 equal to the ______________ of the phase angle. 3-When V and I are out of phase because of reactance, the product of V times I is called ______________ power 4-For _____________ inductors, the branch currents can be added algebraically. 5- The ______________ power in watts can be calculated as I^2R 6-Calculate XL with L = 30mH and f = 1kHz ( I have Xl=2piFL 2*3.141592653*1kHz*30mH =188 ohms Please check) 7-A parallel RL circuit has the values, R = 5kohms, XL = 5kohms. A voltage source of Vt = 10Vrms is connected in parallel to R and L. Determine the total current, It delivered by the voltage source Vt. 8-A series RC circuit has R = 1Mohm and C = 1microF. How long would it take for the capacitor to fully discharge if it is initially fully charged? 9-A circuit has real power = 300W and an apparent power of 500VA. Determine the power factor and phase angle. 10-The time constant for an LR series circuit is T = 0.1s and R = 10ohms. Calculate the inductance L.
