Question

I already know how can i convert mechanical to electric energy using the explanations from this link

But what if i want to use a brushless electric generator? Is that possible?

Answer 1

Sure,  most brushless motors will act as a polyphase (likly 3 phase) alternator if driven mechanically. You may or may not find polyphase AC useful, but it can be converted to DC with diodes.

Answer 2

The key is to have a motor with some type of magnetism.  it may be permanant magnent or a have a seperatly excited field but then you would have brushes . so the easiest way is with a Per. Mag motor

Answer 3

easy just buy a dc motor that has permanent magnets and turn it.
