ROTATING MACHINES
Consider a single rectangular conducting loop of length l and width 2r embedded
in a uniform magnetic field having a constant flux density B rotates about the
z-axis with a constant angular velocity w radians per second
Slip Rings
The ends of the loop are connected to slip
rings that rotate with the loop
Slip rings are in contact with fixed carbon
brushes through which an electrical contact
is made
Area of the loop (A) = 2rl

At time t, the angle between the plane of the loop and the y-z axis is wt Flux passing through the loop is
By Faraday’s law, the EMF induced in the carbon brushes –

ROTATING MACHINES – AC GENERATOR
BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Since the machine produces a sinusoidal voltage, it is called Alternator or AC Generator
Induced voltage depends on –
1) Speed of rotation
2) Flux Density B
3) Number of turns in the coil
4) Area of the coil
Let us replace slip rings with split-rings
Brushes repositioned on either side of the
split ring commutator
Voltage induced across the loop is given by

This is the voltage v12 between the 2 halves of the commutator

DC GENERATOR - CONSTRUCTION
Stator comprising of stationary parts
Magnetic Field is generated when the
Field Windings situated on the poles
are fed with a DC current
More than 1 pair of poles can be used
to have larger B
Rotor comprising of rotating parts
Rotor consists of a cylindrical iron core
that has slots for housing the armature
conductors and a commutator along
with associated brushesShown here are 8 conductors forming 4
coils and a commutator with 4 segments
BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Conductors 1 and 1’ form coil 1 and so forth
Brushes are depicted as riding on the inside but they
actually make contact with the outside of the commutator
Passing DC current through the field windings produces
Uniform Magnetic Fields in the small air gaps between
the poles and the rotor
When armature windings are connected to the commutator
in an appropriate manner as shown, the individual EMF’s
will not only be rectified but they will be added together
as well
coil-commutator connections
DC GENERATOR
Coils 1 and 2 are in series
and so are coils 3 and 4

DC GENERATOR
EMF induced (e) across a single coil is given as
Voltage across the brushes (v) is given as
When the coils are connected in an appropriate fashion
Small notches in the
waveform result from the
brushes changing from
different segments of the
commutator
In practice many coils are
employed and this
commutator ripple is
quite small
BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
DC GENERATOR – GENERATED VOLTAGE
The generated voltage is given by
where
p -> number of poles
N -> number of armature conductors
a -> number of parallel paths between the brushes
-> flux per pole
n -> Speed of rotation in r.p.m
Ra - Armature Resistance (Resistance of the armature coils,
brushes etc. that complete the circuit)

MAGNETIZATION CURVE OF A DC GENERATOR
Note that some
EMF is induced in
the Generator even
though the field
current is 0. This is
because of the
residual magnetism
of the poles

GENERATOR FIELD EXCITATION
1. SEPARATELY EXCITED GENERATOR
The Field Windings are excited by a separate
source
2. SHUNT CONNECTED GENERATOR
The Field Windings are excited using the
generator’s own induced voltage. This is
done by connecting the Field in parallel with
the Armature
BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
GENERATOR FIELD EXCITATION
Shunt connected generator is an example of self excited generator
In a shunt connected generator, the Field Winding has many turns and relatively high
field resistance so that the Field current is a small fraction of armature current
Field current can further be controlled by using a Rheostat in series with the field as
shown
BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
3. SERIES CONNECTED GENERATOR
GENERATOR FIELD EXCITATION
The Field Winding is placed in series with the
Armature
Field current is same as Armature Current and
Field Winding has less turns and less Resistance
This is done to reduce the voltage drop across the
Field Winding even under No Load conditions
We can place a Diverter Resistance in parallel
with the Field Winding as shown to reduce the
voltage drop across the Field Winding

GENERATOR FIELD EXCITATION
4. COMPOUND CONNECTED GENERATOR
Connecting the Field Winding in
shunt as well as in series with the
Armature as shown
Rheostat and a Diverter Resistance
can be employed as shown

GENERATOR FIELD EXCITATION
4. COMPOUND CONNECTED GENERATOR
CUMULATIVE COMPOUND DIFFERENTIAL COMPOUND
EMF due to Shunt Field is added to the EMF that is induced by the Series Field
EMF due to Shunt Field is subtracted to the EMF that is induced by the Series Field
BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
GENERATOR BUILDUP
Consider a self excited shunt generator with a control rheostat
When the Switch is open (), some EMF still induced due to
Residual Magnetism
When Switch is closed, this EMF acts on the Field Winding
generating more hence more induced EMF
Repetitive process of
increasing generated
voltage and field current
is known as generator
buildup
Due to Residual Magnetism

The plot between load voltage and the
load current is termed as an external
characteristic. We can plot the graph
using the equation above. Theoretically,
it is a straight line but practically a bit
curved.

EXTERNAL CHARACTERISTICS
The external characteristics of a
separately and shunt connected DC
Generator
BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
For a shunt connected generator load current is almost equal to armature current
Due to armature resistance, load voltage will reduce as load current increases
In addition, when the load voltage reduces, the field current decreases thereby
reducing the generated voltage even further

I am unable to understand this. It is a bit complicated
