this might have been answer before. Question is, what in physics or chemistry creates a load on a generator when the demand increases. For example, If no lights are turned on connected to a generator, it will spin freely. but the more lights are turned on the harder is to spin the generator.
What causes this increase in torque requirement. for example the windings in the generator can be mounted in the stator. it doesn't even touch the rotor. so why the increase in torque required to spin the generator as the load demand increases. what causes it?
is it an increase in magnetic flux caused by the windings of the generator that oppose the magnetic field of the rotor?
for someone that doesn't understand physics, it would be rational that the spinning torque required shouldn't change regardless of the electrical demand on the generator.
thank you,
