Simple explanation of a generator

Using a fun teaching prop engineer Rudy Dehn explains how DC and AC generators work. This generator shows the flow of energy in one direction or both + and - using an LED and small bulb. See a simple split-ring commutator and slip ring.

Now why couldn't my teacher have just shown us this video instead of incoherently babbling for 3 weeks

Thank you!👏👏

I’m 35, no real knowledge whatsoever on how machinery works. But this is incredibly easy to understand.

[@GreatBritishGamers]

Such a clear and visual explanation, thank you.

[@Pithead]

Nice to see the old Genius!

[@aarenonline]

agreed

[@bigbankhank9337]

All these fancy videos confusing me, something nice and simple finally straightens things out! Thanks!

[@GachPawlowicz]

This is not a good explanation. There is no principle explained.

[@cruzmueller3906]

thanks this was way simpler for me then the other videos i could actually understand it

[@slowjamcdub]

Broke down as simple as possible! Very clear to understand! Amazing job!

[@kd1s]

It would be cool to see a scope attached when it's in AC mode.

This was so helpful trying to pass college physics. Thank you!

After hours of searching, an old man explained it in 2 min. What the fuck

[@johnwalker3742]

Dead🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀so true!!

[@MatthewParkenSoanoNoVa]

Could u make the wire rub against the magnet by moving the pulley sytem with magnet propulsion like two opposite magnets constantly pushing each other on a track while pulling the crank making the pulley move that is generating power from rubbing against the other magnet and would it be possible to make a magnet propulsion home genarotor that can produce around 30 kw a day and and is built to last to continuesly produce energy for a home and maybe put the generator underground to muffle noise pollution and could u make it affordable and good quility.

[@tonyfox6856]

You can change from dc to ac by moving the contacts? So I’m guessing that contact rod has a separation. Of how does that work?

[@ahmadazab7853]

i don't understand the circuit. why are the leds direction dependent?

[@GuestCount]

what branch of science does electricity belong?

Man, that old man.. id wanna give him a hug, but id fear (just like any other normal person would react) "get the hell off me" not thatd id just randomly hug the dude

Fabulous video !!!! great !!! hats of to you sir

nice information

[@JoyOfCuriosity]

We did an experiment covering this and other electromagnetism projects here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWLLe2VnbJKalac

[@daytraderworkhorse]

Genius!

[@likeaturtledo]

Very helpful, Thank you!

[@clebfunny]

Is there any way you could provide a list of the materials you used to make this?

Great

[@luiscamilo2827]

Do you guy have any instruction on how to make one ?

[@flaplaya]

If only people understood the magnitude of the energy density created from modern powerstations...

[@POLISNecro]

Can we buy this please ?

[@kostelgerollari9258]

How work a generator with stator coil ???

[@joelhewitt6497]

This has me confused. I thought all generators required some type of excitation on the rotor coils?

[@GTChow]

This is because in this video he is using a permanent magnet, there is no need for excitation in this case. The excitation is only when using iron or steel wound in wire to turn it into an electromagnet at will.

Best video of this topic. Thank u

[@paulnathanielsmith]

Finally I understand

[@saiaravindkondapaturi2814]

How to make this

[@mikelemon5109]

Why you all generator guys don't put a capacitor in parallel with the led to smooth the voltage?

[@jedward637]

because it doesn't need one
