Generator type

Generator type

Depending on the type of generator, it may work differently. Several common generator types are described below:

1. Dc generator

The direct current generator is driven by mechanical energy to slide the brush on the commutator, so that the direction of the current in the armature winding is changed alternately, and direct current is generated. Dc generator has the advantages of simple structure and easy maintenance, but the output voltage is unstable, and it is not suitable for long distance transmission.

2. Alternator

The alternator generates alternating current in the stator through the principle of electromagnetic induction. Alternator has the advantages of stable output voltage, suitable for long-distance transmission, and is widely used in power system, industry and other fields.

3. Hydrogenerator

The hydrogenerator uses the kinetic energy of the water flow to drive the turbine to rotate, and then drives the generator to generate electricity. Hydrogenerator is the main power generation equipment of hydropower station with the advantages of abundant resources and low operating cost.

4. Wind turbines

Wind turbine is the use of wind energy to drive the wind turbine rotation, and then drive the generator to generate electricity. Wind turbine has the advantages of environmental protection, renewable and so on, and is widely used in wind farms.
