státor

Stator refers to the stationary part of a rotary machine, such as an electric motor, generator, or turbine. In an electric motor, the stator typically contains the windings that create a rotating magnetic field. This field interacts with the rotor, causing it to spin and produce mechanical power. In generators, the stator usually houses the conductors where the voltage is induced by the rotating magnetic field of the rotor. For turbines, the stator blades, also known as nozzles or guide vanes, direct the flow of the working fluid (like steam or water) onto the rotor blades, thereby transferring energy. The design and material of the stator are critical for the efficiency and performance of the overall machine. In electrical machines, stators are often constructed from laminated iron cores to reduce eddy currents, with copper windings embedded within slots. The stability and robustness of the stator are essential for the long-term operation of these devices.
