    7FH2 Gen Fund Construction

    The document provides an overview of GE electrical generators. It describes how the generator works by using a rotating magnetic field produced by the rotor to induce sinusoidal voltages in the stator windings. The rotor is turned by a turbine and receives DC current from an exciter, while the stator remains stationary and its coils produce three-phase AC power. The generator uses hydrogen or air cooling and sensors to monitor winding temperatures during continuous operation.

    Three Phase AC Generation

    In a simple generator, the


    field winding or Rotor is
    rotated under 3 sets of
    armature or Stator
    windings.
    These windings produce 3
    distinct outputs that are
    120o apart.

    Three Phase AC Generation

    Each stator winding or


    phase is actually several
    windings connected in
    series.
    Windings connected in
    series increase the voltage
    in each phase. This is
    desirable to limit the
    strength of the excitation
    current.
