Electrical generators experience load effects because the load current creates a torque that counteracts the mechanical input torque, resulting in a decrease in generator efficiency. This phenomenon is a result of the motor action inherent in generators, as they function similarly to motors under load. When multiple generators are used to share the load, the division of torque can potentially reduce the overall drag on the system, although the total energy output remains constant due to the conservation of energy principle. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for optimizing generator performance under varying load conditions. Ultimately, effective management of load distribution can enhance generator efficiency.
