There are
two animations available. This one is in 3-D, the other is available as
a 2-D
diagram showing directions of current flow
The AC generator has two complete commutator rings, known as a slip ring commutator. It generates current in one direction
for half its rotation, and in the other for the second half of its rotation.
Remember that a generator converts kinetic energy into electrical energy plus heat energy. Back to Generators Page.
