What Generators Can Run on 12 kgm Torque and Their Current Output?

AI Thread Summary
Generators that can operate on 12 kgm torque at 60 rpm can produce approximately 0.75 kW of power. This torque translates to 120 Nm, which is calculated using the formula P=T*pi*N/30000. The current output can be determined by dividing the power by the voltage of the generator. While a generator rated for 750 watts is suitable, it may be considered low for some applications. Overall, selecting a generator with the appropriate capacity is essential for optimal performance.

My project produces 12 kgm torque so,I need a list of Generator which runs on 12 kgm torque and how much Current it produces... Please advise

At what speed does your prime mover apply 12Nm?

It rotates at 60 rpm
 
So using the torque and rpm, calculate the power (and current is power divided by voltage). Then you can just google for generators that are of that capacity.
 
okay so 12 kgm torque is 120 Nm and speed is 60 rpm...So using this formula P=T*pi*N/30000
Power is .75 kw.
Now a generator which runs on 750 watts...okay that's a little low...
Thanks
 

Thread 'Bubble formation in 4 mm gap vessel'

How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...

Thread 'Find 3D Printer & Software Resources for Prototype Creation'

I'd like to create a thread with links to 3-D Printer resources, including printers and software package suggestions. My motivations are selfish, as I have a 3-D printed project that I'm working on, and I'd like to buy a simple printer and use low cost software to make the first prototype. There are some previous threads about 3-D printing like this: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/are-3d-printers-easy-to-use-yet.917489/ but none that address the overall topic (unless I've missed...
