The stator is the stationary part of a rotary system, found in electric generators, electric motors, sirens, or biological rotors.
Promising future industrial and commercial HTS applications include Induction heaters, transformers, fault current limiters, power storage, motors and generators, fusion reactors (see ITER) and magnetic levitation devices.
Diesel generator, a combination of diesel engine and electric generator
In the 1950s, a diesel-powered electric generator was used to allow the cars to move under their own power.
