Electrical generator

Power lines are cables that carry electrical power (Google definitions 2015). This electrical power is generated by Eskom, an electrical energy supplier company, and carried via the power lines to many areas around the country. To be able to produce so much current to the whole of country, AC generators are normally used (Horner, Davies & Toerien 2012). A generator is a device that turns mechanical energy into electrical energy (Olivier 2015). A generator is usually either AC( alternating-current)

converted into mechanical energy by the wind turbine first. Then the mechanical power is converted into electrical power by a generator. The more efficient the conversion is, the less wind power the generator loses. Therefore, study on the efficiency of power conversion becomes an important subject. In this literature review, Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) in Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) under Power Signal Feedback Control algorithm will be mainly discussed. Introduction

Introduction Our world is powered by electricity; it surrounds us in every turn and every corner, powering our streetlights, our TVs, our hospitals, our homes, and our communities. Electricity is a form of energy that results from charged particles. There are many energy sources that can be converted into electricity, and that’s why it is suited for powering our society. We can generate electricity from burning fuels, energy of falling water, solar energy, and basically anything that has energy

TRAINING REPORT AT BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRICAL LIMITED (BHEL) RANIPUR, HARIDWAR – 249403 FROM 16th MAY 2014 TO 30 th JUNE 2014 SUBMITTED BY Mohit Sharma B.TECH(EE),4th year INDIAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY ROORKEE DECLARATION I hereby declare that this summer training report submitted to the Department of Electrical Engineering, IIT Roorkee is a record of an original work done by me under the guidance of Mr. Rajmani Jaiswal, Executive Engineer, Bharat Heavy Electrical Limited, Haridwar and this

deals with generating electricity by utilizing the flow of air on the vehicle while cruising on a highway. The micro wind turbines are coupled to micro generators placed above the trunk at the rear end of the car. Two turbines have been tested at various speeds of the vehicle ranging from 50 – 80 mph on the freeway. When hooked up to an electrical load consisting of 4 LED bulbs connected in parallel, consistent output of 4V and 800mA was achieved using the two turbines connected in parallel. Keywords-

INTRODUCTION The request of force is heightened in the realm of power. This development of interest triggers a need of more power generation. DG utilizes smaller sized generators than does the ordinary central station plant. Distributed generators are little scale generators found near purchasers; regularly Distributed Generators are of 1 kW to 100 MW [1]. Meaning of DG [2]. Distributed generation in straightforward term can be characterized as a small scale generation. It is an active power generating

moves with temperature difference. This concept has not been explored earlier but a lot of research can be done in this regard. We will be presenting a practically running model of a car driven by a simple heat source with the help of thermoelectric generator. 2. CONCEPT The world wastes a lot of heat. Between half and two-thirds of the fuel we burn to create energy is dissipated as heat into the atmosphere.

due to the benefits the device yields. The piston-crank concept would be a one solution of converting the heaving motion, absorbed by the buoy from the sea, and converting it to mechanical energy. The mechanical energy would then be converted to electrical energy via a

Motors, Gears, & Generators Lab Objectives: 1) Learn about motor and generator operation. 2) Generate and use motor torque/speed curves. 3) Learn about gear ratios and observe how they affect the rotational speed and torque of a motor or generator. Pre-lab Questions Answer the following questions before you begin the lab: For the motor characteristic curve shown below, determine the equation of the line: torque (T) as a function of the rotational speed ( ). In the figure below, is the stall torque
