Knowledge in Synchronous generator

Operation of synchronous generator

In a synchronous generator, a DC current is applied to the rotor winding producing a rotor magnetic field. The rotor is then turned by external means producing a rotating magnetic field, which induces a 3-phase voltage within the stator winding. The rotor of a synchronous machine is a large electromagnet.
