what is stator in electrical engineering?

Answer 1

The stator is the part of a motor or generator that is stationary. The rotor is the other bit, the part that rotates.

Answer 2

The stationary part of a motor is called as stator and the rotating part is called as rotor in electrical engineering

Answer 3

Answer provided by Gnomon is absolutely right.

Here I would like to add the following:

!. In a synchronous generator, the DC field winding is located in the rotor which is driven by the prime mover ( steam turbine as in thermal power plant or Nuclear power plant, water turbine as in hydel power plant). Due to rotation of the rotor, emf is induced in the stator. Thus we get the electricity or electric power.

2. In an squirrel cage induction motor the power is applied to the stator which produces a rotating field in the air gap, in case of a three phase motor. Back emf is induced in the rotor and due to the rotating field it starts rotating. Thus we get mechanical power at the shaft output. In case of slip ring induction motor the fundamental is same.

Please refer to electrical machine book for the working principle of induction generator and synchronous motor. The fundamentals are same.

Answer 4

stator s d stationary part of d motor.it has a 3 or 1 phase winding,and this wil produce d electric flux lines wen xcited from a source of electricity...
