    Windmill Alternator 3-Phase Rectification Circuit

    I will start by thanking you for taking the time to view my post. I am a new member here so hello everyone! I have a windmill that has an alternator/generator consisting of a rotor that has 16 permanent magnets and 36 stator windings. There are 3 bridge rectifiers, each having one AC terminal...

    Will the Digitech QC-1929 (AKA Hantech 6022BE) work for my needs?

    I have a small pendulum driven DC generator project and I need to either record the output waveforms or log the raw data from the generator output (ideally both). The image below shows the kind of output I'm expecting based on the speed of the pendulum swing at steady state. While the image...

    Are there any generators that produce little or no counter torque?

    Maybe a silly question, I understand that when an electrical load is placed on a generator, the generator produces a counter torque, thus requiring more power to maintain the rpm. I was just wondering are there any electrical generator designs that produce little or even no counter torque, or...

    Governor for homemade generator

    Hello, I'm new to this forum so I would like to say Hy to all. I builded homemade electric generator. It's 2kw generator from Briggs&Stratton lawn mower engine (four stroke with carburator and centrifugal governor) and 1phase inductive industrial motor. I managed to get motor to generate...

    Would a high voltage low current generator be more efficient?

    Generators have to deal with counter torque. The more electrical load placed on the generator, the greater the counter torque. Since the counter torque is a function of load current, if one designed a generator to be low current/high voltage, and in conjunction used a transformer to then convert...

    Wind Generators- pros & cons

    ~40 - 45 F for many hundreds of feet down and the well drillers here are greedy as all get out. The wind tears all but the most over built wind generators to bits here. I've played with the AE stuff all my life and when it comes to the energy levels needed for winter heating the numbers for...

    How this electrical generator works?

    I bought some weeks ago an electrical generator that uses water pressure to produce electricity. I have disassembled the generator and I don't fully understand how it works. It is like this one: The motor I supose that there is a magnet somewhere that alternates between north and south...
