alternator

listen to the pronunciation of alternator
English - English
An electric generator which produces alternating current
device mounted on a diesel engine to charge starting batteries; sometimes used as a term for alternating current generators
An alternator is an engine-belt driven device that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy The electrical output keeps your battery charged and operates your vehicle's electrical system
A device that converts rotational energy to AC current Alternators provide energy for the vehicle electrical system The alternator also recharges the battery
A belt drive device mounted on the front of the engine that recharges the battery
An electric generator for your car As you drive, it generates electricity that's stored in the battery to be used in starting the car and running the electrical equipment
A synchronous machine used to convert mechanical power into alternating current electric power
(elec) A GENERATOR that changes mechanical ENERGY into electrical energy (ALTERNATING CURRENT) by the rotation of its ROTOR Alternators are used in motor vehicles to recharge and minimize the drain on the BATTERY They are also commonly adapted to be driven by WINDMILL or by STEAM TURBINEs and WATER TURBINEs F - alternateur S - alternador
an electric generator that produces alternating current
A device that produces Alternating Current from the rotation of a shaft
A generator producing alternating current by the rotation of its rotor, and which is powered by a primary mover
The electricity producing device in a car that charges the battery, powers all the electrical accessories when the engine is running, and sometimes causes alternator whine in car audio systems (e g , High output alternators can cause even more noise to flow on the car’s chassis )
A generator that produces electric power in the form of alternating current and voltage
an old term for an electric generator that produces alternating current (especially in automobiles)
Electric generator or dynamo producing alternating current, which is an electric current that reverses its direction periodically
A device which produces alternating current (AC) by converting the engine's turning (mechanical) energy into alternating electrical current at all engine speeds The AC must be rectified (converted from AC to DC) before reaching the vehicle's electrical system The alternator is driven by a belt at the front of the engine
An AC generator
The component in your vehicle's charging system that makes electricity The alternator's job is to keep the battery fully charged, and to provide additional current to meet the demands of the ignition system, lights and other accessories Vehicles equipped with air conditioning and numerous electrical accessories require an alternator with a higher output capacity than a vehicle without such amenities Alternator capacities are rated in amps, with typical outputs ranging from 50 to 80 amps When the alternator or its control device, the "voltage regulator," goes bad, the alternator light on the dash will glow red If your vehicle has a charge indicator, it will show a continual discharge or low voltage Without the supply of electricity to keep it charged, the battery soon goes dead along with your engine Sometimes a slipping drive belt is all that's wrong but usually the alternator and/or regulator need to be replaced
An electric generator that produces alternating electric current
A belt driven device that creates electrical current for maintaining the charge state of the battery and the electrical requirements of the vehicle
an electric generator designed to produce alternating current Usually consists of rotating parts which created the changing magnetic field to produce the alternating current
an electrical generator which produces alternating current
- Part of a vehicle's electrical system, the alternator recharges the battery while the engine is running and supplies current to all electrical devices, including power amplifiers A stock alternator typically produces between 40 and 90 amperes of current
This unit converts the 12-volt DC (Direct Current) from the battery into AC (Alternating Current) at the rate of 13 8 to 14 2 volts, which is necessary to operate your car's performance and electrical systems By nature, alternating current is generated at a higher rate and is more stable This is critical to automotive application
A device for converting mechanical energy into electrical energy in the form of alternating current (AC) 1 3
The part of a car's electrical system that converts mechanical energy from a drive belt into electrical energy to operate the ignition and electrical accessories and charge the battery An alternator generates alternating current (AC) and then transforms it into the direct current (DC) used by automotive electrical systems
An electrical machine, usually rotary, for producing alternating current See also generator
(Otomotiv) An electric generator for your car. As you drive, it generates electricity that's stored in the battery to be used in starting the car and running the electrical equipment
An alternator is a device, used especially in a car, that creates an electrical current that changes direction as it flows. an object that produces an alternating current, especially in a car. Source of direct electric current in modern vehicles for ignition, lights, fans, and other uses. The electric power is generated by an alternator mechanically coupled to the engine, with a rotor field coil supplied with current through slip rings, and a stator with a three-phase winding. A rectifier converts the power from alternating to direct form. A regulator ensures that the output voltage is properly matched to the battery voltage as engine speed varies. An inductor alternator is a special kind of synchronous generator in which both the field and the output winding are on the stator
An electric generator or dynamo for producing alternating currents
{i} generator of an alternating current
