Direct Current Generator
A Direct Current Generator (DC generator) is a device that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy in the form of direct current. It operates on the principle of electromagnetic induction, where a coil of wire rotates within a magnetic field, generating electricity. The output is typically used in applications requiring stable and consistent voltage.
DC generators consist of key components such as a rotor, stator, and commutator. The rotor spins to create a flow of electrons, while the commutator ensures that the current flows in one direction. These generators are commonly used in various applications, including battery charging and powering small motors.
