generator
generator Device for producing electrical energy. The most common is a machine that converts the mechanical energy of a
turbine or
internal combustion engine into
electricity by employing
electromagnetic induction. There are two types of generators: alternating current (an alternator, such as found in power stations) and direct current (a dynamo). Each has an armature (or ring) that rotates within a magnetic field creating an induced
electric current.
