Induction generator
In`duc´tion gen´er`a`tor
| 1. | A machine built as an induction motor and driven above synchronous speed, thus acting as an alternating-current generator; - called also asynchronous generator. Below synchronism the machine takes in electrical energy and acts as an induction motor; at synchronism the power component of current becomes zero and changes sign, so that above synchronism the machine (driven for this purpose by mechanical power) gives out electrical energy as a generator. |
induction generator
induction generator[in′dək·shən ¦jen·ə·rād·ər] (electricity) A nonsynchronous alternating-current generator whose construction is identical to that of an ac motor, and which is driven above synchronous speed by external sources of mechanical power. AcronymsSeeinterest group |
