Diesel generator set alternator classification and excitation mode

Diesel generator set alternator classification and excitation mode

1. Alternator classification

The alternator used in the generator set with diesel engine and gasoline engine refers to the AC synchronous generator (referred to as the alternator), which can be divided into a rotating magnetic field and a rotating armature according to the magnetic field mode, and the former can be divided into For three-phase, single-phase generators, the latter can be divided into AC excitation and DC excitation generators. Further classification is shown in Table 3-1.
