In this article we are going to discuss about the difference
between motor and generator. In both machine more similarity but some difference
between them
Difference between Motor and Generator
Motor |
Generator |
1. The motor are convert electrical energy into mechanical energy. Simply
we can say that it generate rotation power at motor shaft output.
|
The generator are convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. it
convert rotation power into electrical power,
|
2. It gives mechanical output if its input is electrical
|
It gives electrical output if its input is mechanical
|
3. its only one input , electrical power
|
In this machine many types input used as like falling water, pressurized
steam, coal
|
4. A DC generator is also a DC motor it means a generator can be converting
into motor.
|
A DC motor is also can be convert into DC generator.
|
5. It is used for drive every
type machine as like washing machine, Printing machine etc.
|
It is used for generate electrical power which are used to drive
electrical motor.
|
6. It work on principle of electromagnetic
induction but in this Fleming left hand rule work
|
It is also work on principle of electromagnetic induction but current direction given by Fleming right
hand rule
|
So these are
main difference between motor and generator if above find you some incorrect please
comment below.
