D.C. Generator Construction and Operation

(continued)

 

Armature Assembly: In practically all d.c. generators, the armature rotates between the poles of the field. The armature assembly is made up of a shaft, armature core, armature windings and commutator. The armature core is laminated, and is slotted to take the armature windings. The armature windings are usually wound in forms and then placed in the slots of the core.

The commutator is made up of copper segments insulated from one another, and from the shaft by mica. Small slots are provided in the ends of the segments to which the armature windings are soldered. The shaft supports the entire armature assembly and rotates in the end bearings.

There is a small air gap between the armature and pole pieces to prevent rubbing between the armature and pole pieces during rotation. This gap is kept to a minimum in order to keep the field strength at a maximum.

Brushes: The brushes ride on the commutator, and carry the generated voltage to the load. They are usually made of a high grade of carbon, and are held in place by brush holders. A flexible braided conductor called a "pigtail" connects each brush to the external circuit.

You have learnt that a current flow can be induced in a conductor when it cuts through a magnetic field.

Wire conductors used in generators are always wound around metal cores, and eddy currents would be induced in these metal cores just as useful current is induced in the wires of the generator. But eddy currents are waste currents since they have no useful purpose and only heat the metal cores. Consequently, the machine operates at low efficiency. It is therefore important that eddy currents in core material must be kept to a minimum.

This is done* by having the cores made up of laminations, or thin plates of metal, rather than out of one solid piece**. These laminations are insulated from each other, and this limits the eddy current to that which can flow in the individual lamination.

 

*this is done – зд. этого достигают.

** rather than out of one solid piece – a не из одного сплошного куска.
