In this project, we will design a setup to demonstrate Faraday’s Law of electromagnetic induction and
Maxwell’s Law to see how Motor And Generator works.

WORKING PRINCIPAL
An electric generator is a device that converts mechanical energy
obtained from an external source into electrical energy as the
output.
It is important to understand that a generator does not actually
‘create’ electrical energy. Instead, it uses the mechanical energy
supplied to it to force the movement of electric charges present in
the wire of its windings through an external electric circuit. This flow
of electric charges constitutes the output electric current supplied
by the generator. This mechanism can be understood by considering
the generator to be analogous to a water pump, which causes the
flow of water but does not actually ‘create’ the water flowing
through it.
Michael Faraday discovered that an electromotive force , or emf, is induced in a circuit and is
caused by a change of magnetic flux ( ) through the circuit. This states that the magnetic flux,
or the amount of magnetic field passing through a surface area, depends on the strength of the
magnetic field , the perpendicular cross-sectional area of the coil of wire, and the angle
between them.
The modern-day generator works on the principle of electromagnetic induction discovered by
Michael Faraday in 1831-32. Faraday discovered that the above flow of electric charges could be
induced by moving an electrical conductor, such as a wire that contains electric charges, in a
magnetic field. This movement creates a voltage difference between the two ends of the wire or
electrical conductor, which in turn causes the electric charges to flow, thus generating electric
current.

Tests & Observation

We did several test on This Prototype electric


generator and we found that induced EMF depends
on number of loops, magnetic flux and the intensity
of magnetic flux and the speed with which it
changes.

We used permanent magnets for magnetic field


which will turn by a 12 Volt DC motor inside coil
when motor is turned the flux is cut by conductors
which induced EMF in it. We measured that induced EMF with multimeter which was turned to be
4.4 volts approximately.

Emf = 4.4 V =E/-N =4.4/-350 =0.0125


The number of turns we used was 350 & two magnetic poles moving at around 1400 RPM
approximately between windings. Output we achieved was alternating current so we used a full
bridge rectifier to convert it from alternating current to direct current so we could drive some DC
load on it.

Application

• Electric generators are useful for homes, shops, offices, etc. which face frequent
power outages. They act as a backup to ensure that the appliances receive
uninterrupted power supply.
• In distant areas, where electricity from the main line cannot be accessed, electric
generators act as the primary source of power supply.
• When working on project sites where electricity cannot be accessed from the grid,
electric generators can be used for powering machinery or tools.
