Generated EMF, or Armature EMF, is the EMF of rotation in a generator. It is induced in the armature winding when the armature rotates in a magnetic field.  The equation for generated EMF in a DC generator is:  E = V + Ia Ra  Where: Z: Conductor per pole P: Number of poles Φ: Flux per pole N: Speed in rpm A: Number of parallel paths Ia: Armature current Ra: Armature resistance V: Terminal voltage  EMFs are produced by everyday items like mobile phones and electrical appliances. They are used to transmit information wirelessly and to heat things like food.  There are two main... Show more
