P plate training ...not

I think that translates as I'm too stupid to think for myself, n'est
ce pas ?

Ya gotta love a guy who makes a statement to which the only answer is
"yeah but"...<pause> actually no you don't.

Yes, load is load, it's measured in work done, hence why I put the
bits in brackets about how it was measured (that'd be that torque
thingy). But Andrew seemed to be differentiating between two different
types of work (he later said things that make me doubt he had a clue,
but that's a different discussion) the actual statement he made is
(pedantically) correct.

There's work to turn the metal things in the alternator around- that
load is a constant, it doesn't change regardless of the electrickery.

Then there's the electrickery, the EMF is going to create a different
load depending on the watts being consumed by dint of how much
electrical load is attached.

Add the two together and you get the total one is variable, one is
constant. Not difficult really.

Well i wasn't drunk but I don't know what the latter bit means so I
can't comment, it's obviously intended to be pejorative so I guess the
obvious reply is "gefuggedyastupidkuntgetabigblackdogupya"

Nah mate, it's a Camira

I'm not surprised that YOU are having this discussion John, but I'm
absolutely STUNNED that you're having it with a poster who display about
half the mental capacity of an overripe marrow!

C'mon; do you reeeeeealy reckon he's following you here?

 

Errmmm..... [shuffles guiltily]

 

Eh?

It's measured but it doesn't measure?

Well you're wrong but the engine won't stall.
The lights will glow extremely dimly for a very short time and then either
the fan-belt will slip or the alternator/regulator will cease to function
(and let the magic smoke out).

Couple Nev's car engine to a several-thousand KVA alternator and try it
though and the engine will stop (or automatically up-power itself to cope).

 

One thing worth bearing and I think you would find it so is the gennys
efficiency imporoves to a certain point with a partial load , although
load the crap outa it and thats all over/.

 

Acuracy in a Holden Commode? This is the same car manufacturer that produced cars that said there was ~70 kms worth of fuel
remaining as the car ground to a halt out of fuel.

 

I've got 65000km worth of fuel receipts to back that up. Maybe you can
do better

It is too.
it might not have swinging arms in the physical sence but at a base
electronic level there is still a little robot screaming Danger Dr Smiff

when the maf sensor sends a signal/

 

I am amazed that it is 10 percent of its "total max output".

No, don't agree with you there. Look at JL and Andrew McKenna's post.

Oh, this the imperious and grandiose-BigI persona now?

I find it amusing that you ignore the essence of the conversion of
mechanical to electrical energy, yet you'll explain how an alternator will
work!

It's all about him, anyway, he just likes the laughs (oh and the sooks).

Will I need to use synthetic or mineral oil?

Hammo

 

That is exactly what I am asking you to do!!

I reckon a test would be if it can tell the difference between air-con on
and aircon off.
If it can't tell the difference then it's never gonna' see headlights.

 

Holy **** Hammo; did Andrew McKenna's post actually make sense to you?!!?
Can you translate all that "...you need to push harder ...it cannot possibly
get harder..." stuff into sense please?

 

[shrug] It doesn't.
It just displays a number that you either do or don't choose to believe.

 

the load does change in response to demand and thats the point , see
bicycle riding .

which means the mechanical force required to maaintain the rotations
speed alters in response ( think bicycle pedals )

now you are being impolite , google machinations and you will
understand , se not machinery of the mind . ok ?

 

No; YOU are trying to pretend that an amount needs to be determined.
Waste just means "consume uselessly"
(http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/waste) and it doesn't matter if it's
a poofteenth of a fraction of a bees-dick per millennium; wasted is wasted.
It's either none or not-none!

 

No need to cro about it!
