Small single-phase permanent-magnet ac generators are frequently

Small single-phase permanent-magnet ac generators are frequently Small single-phase permanent-magnet ac generators are frequently used to generate the power for lights on bicycles. For this application, these generators are typically designed with a significant amount of leakage inductance in their armature winding. A simple model for these generators is an ac voltage source ea(t) = […]
