When was Energy Conversion Devices created?
Energy Conversion Devices was created in 1960.
What is the importance of electrical energy?
It is used in modern society as the main method to transport energy. Also, many devices use the electrical energy directly, without further conversion.
What is the energy conversion for a coal fired generator?
A generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy, while a motor does the opposite - it converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Both devices work because of electromagnetic induction, which is when a voltage is induced by a changing magnetic field.
Why most practical energy conversion devices used magnetic field as the coupling medium between electrical and magnetic system?
answer
Are energy conversion devices and machines the same?
Energy conversion I would say means converting say thermal energy to mechanical, or mechanical to electrical, or other conversions you can think of. Now some machines do this, like electrical generators, or electric motors which is the same but in reverse. Other machines are just mechanical, like a gearbox for example, mechanical energy in and mechanical energy out. So the word machine is more general, energy conversion devices are a sub-set of machines.
What are some known energy conversion devices?
Photo voltaic cells (solar cells) convert light energy into electrical energy. Electric generators convert kinetic energy into electrical energy. Internal combustion engines convert chemical energy into kinetic energy.
State the energy conversion in dry cell?
Chemical energy is transformed to electrical energy.
What is the energy conversion for a toaster?
From electrical energy to heat energy
The conversion of electrical energy in to mechanical energy?
Motors convert electrical energy to mechanical energy. Generators transfer mechanical energy to electrical energy.
Devices that convert sound energy into mechanical energy?
Sound energy is mechanical energy. No devices are required to make a conversion.
List some examples of energy conversion?
microwave oven-electrical to heat stove-chemical to heat windmills mechanical to electrical firecracker-chemical to heat and sound
What devices can convert energy into electrical energy?
generator
