Recharges battery after cranking
Supplies the cars electricity when the engine is running
Provides output voltage slightly higher than battery voltage
Changes output to meet varying loads

Alternator: An iron core (rotor) is rotated by the engine within a stationary coil of wire (stator). A current (field current) is passed through the rotor creating a strong magnetic fieldAs the rotor and strong magnetic field rotate within the stator, an alternating electrical current is induced in the stator coil windingsAlternating current (AC) produced by alternator is converted to direct current (DC) for use by vehicle electrical system by diodesAlternator output is controlled by a voltage regulatorWhen output is too high, regulator reduces field current powerWhen output is too low, regulator increases field current powerNormal charging system voltage: 13.6 to 14.8 voltsHigh voltage can damage light bulbs, motors and electronic componentsLow voltage can prevent battery from recharging properlyAlternator output should be sufficient to operate all electrical accessories and still maintain voltage necessary to recharge battery.
Charging System
Dr.Manzoor HM. JNTU Hyderabad.
-
Four wires connect the alternator to the rest of the charging system.
B is the alternator output wire that supplies current to the battery.
IG is the ignition input that turns on the alternator/regulator assembly.
S is used by the regulator to monitor charging voltage at the battery.
L is the wire the regulator uses to ground the charge warning lamp.Charging System Circuit

Rectified AC CurrentAutomobiles electrical system requires direct current (DC) which flows one wayAlternator output must be rectified (changed) from AC to DCDiode allows current flow in only one directionSeveral are connected into a rectifier bridge
Dr.Manzoor HM. JNTU Hyderabad.
-
Understanding the AlternatorThe alternator contains:
A rotating field winding called the rotor.
A stationary induction winding called the stator.
A diode assembly called the rectifier bridge.
A control device called the voltage regulator.
Two internal fans to promote air circulation.
AlternatorOverview

-
Understanding the AlternatorAlternator drive pulleys either bolt on or are pressed on the rotor shaft.
Both V and Multi-grove types are used.
Note this alternator does not have an external fan as part of the pulley assembly.
While many manufacturers do use a external fan for cooling. This alternator has two internal fans to draw air in for cooling.Drive Pulley

Dr.Manzoor HM. JNTU Hyderabad.
-
Two slip rings are located on one end of the rotor assembly. Each end of the rotor field winding is attached to a slip ring. Thereby, allowing current to flow through the field winding.Two stationary carbon brushes ride on two rotating slip rings. Bushes are either soldered or bolted Brushes

As the rotor assembly rotates within the stator winding.
The alternating magnetic field from the spinning rotor induces an alternating voltage into the stator winding.
Both the strength of the magnetic field and the speed of the rotor affect the amount of voltage induced into the stator.

-
*Starter MotorThe pinion gear meshes with the ring gear before the motor turnsThe teeth on the pinion gear are tapered to ensure smooth engagementThe drive assembly includes an overrunning clutch.

Starter-Mounted SolenoidSolenoid plunger moves a shift lever to engage the pinion gear
Dr.Manzoor HM. JNTU Hyderabad.
-
Starting systemsThe starter solenoid is energized by the ignition switch and also provides high current for the starter motorThe over-running clutch allows the starter to rotate the engine while preventing the engine from rotating the starter motor
Dr.Manzoor HM. JNTU Hyderabad.
-
Starting SystemsThe starter motor contains a rotating conductor called an armatureStationary magnets are mounted inside the starter housingWhen current flows through the armature, strong attracting and opposing magnetic fields are created and react with the stationary magnets to cause the armature to rotate
