The voltage generated in the armature, placed in a rotating magnetic field , of a DC generator is alternating in nature. The commutation in DC machine or more specifically commutation in DC generator is the process in which generated alternating current in the armature winding of a dc machine is converted into direct current after going through the commutator and the stationary brushes. Again in DC Motor , the input DC is to be converted in alternating form in armature and that is also done through commutation in DC motor . This transformation of current from the rotating armature of a dc machine to the stationary brushes needs to maintain continuously moving contact between the commutator segments and the brushes. When the armature starts to rotate, then the coils situated under one pole (let it be N pole) rotates between a positive brush and its consecutive negative brush and the current flows through this coil is in a direction inward to the commutator se...
