In an aircraft alternator, it's the Diodes that rectify the generated AC current into DC, correct? Or is it the brush that rectifies? Or is the brush only used as a rectifier in a generator?
Ah ok! This clears it up! Thanks! And no, I'm not
The diodes block the reverse (negative) wave of the AC output, allowing only the positive cycle to pass thru to the electrical system.
An alternator replaces the commutator and brushes of a generator with slip rings, which transfer electricity
