I think its unidirectional but not 100% so any feedback more than welcome, cheers

In a 2 pole generator the brushes on the Commutator pick up the voltage generated which is

A a.c

B Unidirectional

C Intermittent a.c.

D Steady d.c

 
I'd go for the DC option, as it's using a commutator

I stand to be corrected tho lol

 
As the generator produces A.C. and the commutator allows the 'switching' of the output, it would be pulsed and not steady D.C. therefore unidirectional would be the better option
