When the engine spins the crankshaft, the armature rotates rapidly inside the stator to induce a voltage difference and produce the electrical current output of the generator.

An air gap is the distance between the rotor and stator of a large-scale hydroelectric generator. This gap is a very small distance in relation to the size of the rotor. Its measurement to tight ...

Asynchronous induction motors work by rotating the magnetic field of the stator with AC power. In an induction motor, the stator and the rotor are both made of wire windings.

Historically, generator inspections require rotor removal (Figure 3). There’s a significant level of risk during this process due to possible generator damage during the disassembly, and it also ...
