What Are The Differences Between The Motor And Generator?

Today we will give you a brief introduction about what is the difference between a motor and a generator. If any else you need to know welcome to visit our Dingbo website.

Motors and generators are composed of magnets, coils, commutators, brushes, etc., and the links between their components and components are basically the same, and each component is a circuit composed of series in series.

There are magnets in the composition of motors and generators, so both will be affected by the direction of the magnetic field, and the direction of the current is related to the direction of the magnetic field. Therefore, the force direction of the coil in the motor and generator is related to the direction of the magnetic field.

Their working principles are different. First, the generator is made based on the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction, while the generator is made based on the force movement principle of the energized conductor in the magnetic field, and the second is the motor and power generation. The judgment method of the machine is different. The judgment of the direction of current in the general generator usually uses the right-hand rule, while the direction of the conductor in the motor in the magnetic field generally adopts the left-hand rule.

The purpose of work and the conversion of energy are different. Generators generally require external work to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, while motors, on the contrary, require external work to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy.

Summary: The structure is the same. The components are connected in the same way. All components are connected in series to form a circuit. All are affected by the direction of the magnetic field. The direction of the current generated in the generator is related to the direction of the magnetic field; the direction of the force on the coil in the motor is related to the direction of the magnetic field. The principle is different. The judgment method is different. The purpose of work is different from the conversion of energy.

Dingbo Power was founded in 2006 and is one of the earliest manufacturers of generators and diesel generator sets in China. If you want get more information, please feel free to send email to sales@dieselgeneratortech.com we will pay highly attention on your question.
