What to Do When a Car Generator Fails?

[BrielleLee]

Immediately turn off high-power electrical appliances in the car. Below is an introduction to car generators: 1. Working Principle: When an external circuit energizes the excitation winding through brushes, a magnetic field is generated, magnetizing the claw poles into N and S poles. As the rotor rotates, the magnetic flux alternates in the stator windings, and according to the principle of electromagnetic induction, an alternating electromotive force is generated in the three-phase windings of the stator. This is the generating principle of an alternator. 2. Classification: Car generators can be divided into DC generators and AC generators. Since AC generators outperform DC generators in many aspects, DC generators have been phased out. AC generators are further classified into the following categories based on different classification methods: ordinary AC generators, integral AC generators, pump-equipped AC generators, brushless AC generators, and permanent magnet AC generators.
