Christine and Scott Gable are hybrid auto and alternative fuel experts who have brewed their own biodiesel and traveled 125,000 miles on waste vegetable oil. Electric vehicles rely exclusively on ...

AC drives offer significant market opportunities due to their role in enhancing energy efficiency and supporting automation and sustainable practices. Key growth drivers include their applicability in ...

[Robert Murray-Smith] doesn’t like the price of inverters to convert DC to AC. That led him to build a dynamotor, or what is sometimes called a motor-generator set. These devices are just DC motors ...

DC Motors were king in industry up until the late 1980s; These motors were popular because they were able to run to a variable speed setpoint, and they could run at full torque from stall to base ...

In this fascinating tutorial, learn step-by-step how to make a small AC generator using magnet energy. Discover the fundamental principles of magnetic energy and electricity generation to achieve ...

Any electrical motor, from an idealized viewpoint, consists of two sets of magnets—one set stationary, one set free to move—placed in special geometric relation to one another. For most practical ...

DC machines can be classified as self-excited, separately excited, permanent magnet (PM), and brushless. Self-excited machines can be further classified as shunt, series, and compound. Compound ...

A dc motor driving an ac alternator was used to simulate an asynchronous wind electric generator. The output was used to drive a commercial air conditioning unit containing a hermetically sealed three ...
