# Industrial Specification: Electric Generator

## 1. Technical Definition
A device that converts mechanical energy from a diesel engine into electrical energy within a diesel-electric powertrain system.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.95-1.05 per unit voltage (380-420V at 400V nominal), 49.5-50.5 Hz frequency, 65-85°C winding temperature**. Failure boundary: **Insulation breakdown at 150°C (Class F insulation), bearing failure at 0.1 mm radial play, rotor imbalance exceeding 2.5 mm/s vibration velocity (ISO 10816-3)**, Mechanism: **Electromagnetic induction governed by Faraday's Law (ε = -N dΦ/dt), with failure primarily from Joule heating (P_loss = I²R) exceeding insulation thermal limits or Lorentz force-induced mechanical stress**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Joule Heating & Thermal Resistance**:

> **Primary Equation**: $P = I^2 R = \frac{V^2}{R}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Governs heating element sizing for shrink tunnels/sealers.
