Generators
Inelectricity generation, anelectric generatoris a device that convertsmechanical energytoelectrical energy. A generator forces electric current to flow through an externalcircuit. The source of mechanical energy may be a reciprocating orturbinesteam engine, water falling through aturbine or waterwheel, aninternal combustion engine, awind turbine, a handcrank,compressed air, or any other source of mechanical energy. Generators provide nearly all of the power forelectric power grids.The reverse conversion of electrical energy into mechanical energy is done by an electric motor, and motors and generators have many similarities. Many motors can be mechanically driven to generate electricity and frequently make acceptable generators.
