The energy loss is most likely present in the discharge phase of the capacitor, where the parasitic resistance in line with the load "steals" energy.

heh...after some simulations, in more complex circuits (like our beloved SMPSs) , the resistance present when charging a...
Hmmm... more turns and a core were the first things which came to my mind.
But... if you're using a high frequency, that core can become a problem.
As Phrak said, perhaps a powedered core will do the trick.
Can a PSU be connected to a DC source ?
Asking because...

...i see the AC input, followed by capacitors and inductors (or are they transformers?), then the line is rectified. But we don't necessarily need AC to pass...
Thank you very much, but i have one more question about transistors. I understood how the current is controlled, but i don't know how the voltage is affected. Does the Emitter Voltage vary depending on the Base voltage or current ?
Okay, but if frequency increases, then the period decreases, and
According to that, the voltage will increase. It is hard for me to think that alternators have more than two coils just for the reason of increasing frequency.
One more question: if a generator has no load on it, then there will...
I didn't know that. Thanks for the info. Now another question.
How do you saturate a transistor, by increasing the Base voltage or the Base current ?
So then increasing the number of coils has no effect on the output ?
Hey guys, I'm in need of some help.
First...
I know that the formula for a generator is V = N(turns) * A(m2) * B(tesla) * RPM
1. Is that valid for both AC and DC generators ?
2. Is the formula for a generator with only one magnet and one coil ?
If so, then adding more coils changes the...
