23Electric generator — U.S. NRC image of a modern steam turbine generator In electricity generation, an electric generator is a device that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy. A generator forces electric charge (usually carried by electrons) to flow… …
24Electrical generator — In electricity generation, an electrical generator is a device that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy, generally using electromagnetic induction. The reverse conversion of electrical energy into mechanical energy is done by a motor …
25Motor-generator — Radio station motor generator set, converting from low to the high voltage power supply. This device is called an umformer in German. Dübendorf Museum of Military Aviation A motor generator (an M G set or a dynamotor for dynamo motor) is a device …
26Steam generator — A steam generator is a device used to boil water to create steam. It may refer to:*Boiler (steam generator), a closed vessel in which water is heated under pressure *Steam generator (nuclear power), a heat exchanger in a pressurized water reactor …
27Marx generator — diagrams; Although the left capacitor has the greatest charge rate, the generator is typically allowed to charge for a long period of time, and all capacitors eventually reach the same charge voltage …
28General Purpose Heat Source — The General Purpose Heat Source is a stackable, compact unit designed to deliver over 600 degrees Celsius to a Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator (RTG) or a Stirling Radioisotope Generator (SRG), generating 250 watts per unit at the beginning… …
29Thermionischer Generator — Eine Radionuklidbatterie, auch Radioisotopengenerator oder Atombatterie genannt, wandelt thermische Energie des spontanen Kernzerfalls eines Radionuklides in elektrische Energie um. Sie gewinnt ihre Energie aus radioaktivem Zerfall und nicht aus… …
30Chemical oxygen generator — A chemical oxygen generator is a device releasing oxygen created by a chemical reaction. The oxygen source is usually an inorganic superoxide, chlorate, or perchlorate. A promising group of oxygen sources are ozonides. The generators are usually… …
