12 Synchronous Machines “ 421 Type of construction, A syncbrerovs machine comisis of two major purts viz (8) stmature and (ii) field system arrangement of fundamental parts of a aynchrot. us machine is shown in Fig. 12'1 (a). This construction is similar to the one used for cc ma-hines wherein the armature winding ix placed on the rotor and the field system in hovsed iv the stationary stator. This type of construction is used only for low power aynchroncu- machivcs and is untuitable for medium and high power machines ‘Tl avcond type of construction used for synchronour machines is shown in Fig. 12'1 (0). This tvpe of construction uses a stationary armature and a revolving field structure. nce in the construction and operation of synchronous machines has shown I and convenient construction ix of the second typ: wherein the prlis, excited hy de supply, are arranged on the rotor while the armature winding in placed on the stator. he us of revolving field system is almost universal because it has Armature winding, winding Pole @ ® ‘ Fig. 121, Types of synchronous machine construction, the following advantages : (i) Te permits the use of a stationary armature on which the windings can be easil ‘braced (mechanic lly reinforced) and insulated for high voltages. * a (i) The operation ofp rings on account of thei ling contacts i unreliable with large currents at high potential differences, The we of ip rings carrying lazge curren at ut voltages is, therefore, avoided in che stationar armature construction. However, two rings are required for d.c. excitation but ther. is no trouble owing to small excitational power involved. Henceforth whenrver we refer toa synehronous machine, it is implied thet it in a stationary armature, revolving pale machine uoless specified otherwise, The synchronous machines may be classified as (i) salient pole machines and (ii cylindrical rotor machines depending upon the type of construction used for the rotor. Salient pole machines have salient, or projecting poles with concentrated ficld windings as shown in Fig. 12'1 (8). The salient pole construction is used for generator driven by hydraule turbine ince these turbines operate mt, relatvey low speede and a relat vely large number of poles are required to produce the desired frequency ; the salient construction is b tter adopted mechanically to ¢! ylindrical rotor macl have their field winding distributed in slots as 3 1218. The distributed feld winding produces a sinusoilal flux distribution in the air gap. Cylindrical rotor construction is used fir turbo-alteruators which are driven by high speed team or gas turbines. 122 Types of synchronous machines Syuchronous machines operating on general power supply networks may be divided inio the following categories 1, Hydro.generators, The synchronous generators driven by water turbines are known as hy.lro.generatore or water wheel generators They have ratings upto 750 MW and are driven at speeds ranging from 100 to 1000 rpm. 2. Turbo-alternators, They are driven by steam turbines. Since the efficiency of steam turbines is high at large speeds, the turbo-alternators are designed for speeds upto 3000 rpm. Tirbocalternators have ratings upto 1000 MW. 3 Engine driven generators, These generators ate driven by different forms of internal combustion engines at speeds upto 1500 rpm and ratings upto 20 MW. Generators driven by gas turbines have higher speeds and also higher power ratings. ‘4, Motors, Synchronous motors may be either plain synchronous machines or synchronous induction machines. The plain synchronous machine with salient poles is commonly used. Synchronous motors have some ‘lefinite advantages over induction motors and these include constant speed operation, power factor control and high efficlency, ‘Alto synchronous motor prove to be cheaper than induction moton for high power low d applications. The applications of synchronous machines include constant speed. drit fbr compressors, blowers, fans, low head pumps. 5. Compensators, Synchronous compensators are ured for control of reactive power in power supply networks. ‘They are designed for ratings upto 100 MV A, and speeds upto upto 3000 rpm. 12:3 Prime movers for syachronous generators, The type of construction used for synchronous generators depends upon the type of prime mover. The following types of prime movers are ured = @ Steam turbines (Wi) Hydraulic turbines (#4) Diesel engines.

Since the peripheral speed increases in direct proportion to diameter and with increase in diameter the centeif increase, the diameter of the rotor has to kept low. ‘The hhigh speed of the rotor limits che diameter of the 2 pole machine to about 1'2 m giving a peripheral speed 01 about 175 m/s. Cylindrical rotor construction has to be used at the salient poles are impracticable owing to large mechanical forces. The 2 construction with a speed of 3000 rpm for 50 Hz is usually used for turbos alternators. ‘The four pole construction with a speed of 1500 rpm is now obsolete, (H) Hydraclic Turbines ‘The synchronous generators driven by water turbines are known as water wheel tors. The Dydraulls turbines are of different types. The typ: of turbine to be used Is upon the water head available. If the water head is high, the speed of the turbine and therefore a pelton is used. While for low heads, Francis or Kaplan turbines are used. The ‘use of hydraulic turbines at various heads is listed below : ‘Water heads 400 m and above—Pelton wheel Water heads upon $80 m = —Francis turbine Water heads upto 50m | —Kaplan turbine. Av the water heads are not high, the speed of the turbine is low and urually varies from 50 to 500 rpm. Therefore for synchronous machines coupled to hydraulic turbines, salient poles (poles which project out) are used. The number of poles of water wheel generators is 12 |. : The machines driven by pelton wheels can either be vertical or horizontal shaft type. ‘The use of horizontal shaft being more common But high power, low speed synchronous geberators installed in I w head hydro-electric plants (coupled with either Francis or Kaplan turbines) are built with a vertical shaft, coupled by a flange to the shaft, of the turbine placed under the generator. ‘There are two fundamental types of vertical shaft water wheel generators : (6) the suspended type in which the thrust beating is grranged in the upper spider or bracket above the ‘alteretor rotor 5 Pees (b) the umbrella type in-which the bearing is mcunted on the lower spider on the turbine cover. Now-a-days the large sise generators are built with umbrella type of construction to reduce generator weight aid height ithe power station building. This is explained by the fact that when we use the bearing in the uppér spider, it has to be made bigger in size in order to withstand the generator and turbine load and’ alto the water reaction. iocream in dimensions of upper spider increases the generator weight and alto the height of e- (iii) Diesel Ragines : used as prime movers for synchronous generator: of small ratings.

The torque of the diesel engines is not uniform and this makes the synchronous generator sensitive to torque variations 12-4, Ras-away Speed, The run-auay speed is defined as the sjeed which the prime movir would have, if is suddenly unloaded when working at its rated load. When the prime mover is working at full load it receives its feed (water, steam or diesel) correspome ding to full load conditions and therefore when it is suddenly unloaded it tries to race. This is because there is no load on the prime mover while it is receiving its input corresponding to full load. Steam turbines are equipped with a quick acting overspeed govermr set to trip at I'l times the rated speed and therefore the operation of the governer is reliable, Thus the synchronous machines driven by steam turbines may be designed for only 1 25 times the rated speed. However in water turbines, following are the values of run-away speeds with full gate operating : Pelton wheel * =1°8 times rated speed Francis turbine 2 to 2'2 times rated speed Keplan turbine 2'5 t0.2 8 times rated speed. Therefore there is a great difference of peripheral speed at normal speeds and run- away speeds in the case of water turbines, The salient pale machines are thus designed to withitand mechanical stresses encountered at run-away speeds. The maximum peripheral speed for which salient pole machines are designed is about 140 m/s while turbo-alternators are designed for a maximum peripheral speed of about 175 m/s. 125, Gonstraction of Hydro.generaters. The constructional features of hydror gencrators are basically dependent upon the mechanical considerations which depend upon the speed of the machine.

Therefore, the desiga should be such that it permits the machine to transported to the site in sections, The turbine governing, or the transient stability of the network to wich the generator x comneced is dependent ‘upon the total inertia of turbine and the generator. Most of inertia is provided by the generator. The rotor, therefore, must be igned to give the requisite inertia t It is a normal practice to design the rotor to withstand centrifugal stresses produced at twice the normal operating speed. Also, the design ofthe rotor is such that the over speed ue to run-away i not near the first critical speed. 12°51, Stator Core, The stator core is built up of laminations in order to reduce eddy current iron low, The loss in the laminated core is usually the largest single loe in a b ‘nd therefore the devign of stator core paricuasy the choice of type and ‘of steel is of utmost in .

ELECTRICAL MACHINE DESIGN steel is ideal four transformer cores where its_use is widespread. However, its: efficient use in salient pule synchronous machines is difficult to achvive as is clear frou Fig. 122. The flux follows two paths, one along the core at the back of the slots und the other along the teeth at right angles to the first path, Ai shown in the diagram, the flux path is along the Uirection of rolling in teeth but is at right angles to the direction of rolling in the core, ‘Therefore, low iron los occurs in the teeth but the iron loss in core becomes tauch highe Therefore, only a small reduction in total iron loss can be achieved and that too in machi where it is posible to have all the teeth over ® pole pitch practically paral-el to each other. This condition is almost achieved in machines with a large diametcr and large number of poles, In a typical generator as shown in Fig. 12 2, the reduction may not be achieved as even in teeth the direction of flux is not along the direction of rolling. ‘The modern synchronous machines use non directional (isotropic) cold rolle steel which has electrical characteristics identical to hot rolled steel but has much improvd mechanical characteristics like uniformity of thick- ness of laminations, smoothness of surface of luminations, higher fatigue strength and lower clam- ping pressures. Durection of rolling oF graip orientation The commonly used grade for stator lamina- tions is Grade 230, 0°5 mm thick. (See page 22). ‘The lamiuations are insulated with paper stuck on one side, kaolin clay, or cuamel. Paper oF clay ate rarely used now, the former because not being strictly a class B insulant, iv likely to shrink in service, Also it docs not provi-le protection for cut edges. Both Paper and clay are slightly hydroscopic. ‘Therefore, enamel is_used for insulation of laminations. ‘The stator laminations are either punched as @ ig. 49.9.

Since the outvide core diameters ‘of practically all larg: hydrogenerators are much greater than one metre the lamiua made as segments. The number of segments per circle varics from 6 to 42 and upon the number of slots and the number of stator sections. ‘The outside diameter of the stator frame of large hydro-gencrators usually exceeds 3°5 mand may be as high as 18m. In order to facilitate handling in the factory and to relieve the problem of transport from factory tosite of erection the stator core and frame are divided in two or more equal sections. For simplicity of manufacture and assembly at site all mator rections should be similar and this requires the number of segmer ts per circle be divisible by the number of stator sectious. The number of slot per segment should be an even integer as far as possible as an odd integer of slots complicates Fig. 123, Seglnental lamination. ‘the core amembly and the keyiug arrange- ment. bey hick ii beybere tide i Mae ame, iy eeaement he two keyways whi wi in the stator frame, In buildis the core to the required thickness, succzsive layers are arranged so that the butt “ints Botwrsen adjacent segments of one layer come midway between those of the next. 4 SYNCHRONOUS MACHINES . . 7 1252: Stator wins ‘The stator winding of all synchronous generators is star connected with neutral earthed. This arrangement has the advintag: chat the winding hhas to be insulated to earth for the phase voltage ard not the lin voltage, Star connection alto has the’ advantage that it eliminates all triple frequency harmonics from the line voltage. The present practice is to we double layer lap or wav. windings with 60° phase ad. Fractional slot windings are uted to reduce higher order harmonies and piteh of the win Jings is so selected that 5th and 7th harmonics are greatly reduced, The windings may have multiturn coils or single turn coils and m the latter cate the winding is known as bar winding (see page 28) High voltage machines having a large number of poles have a relatively large numb-r of turns and therefore multiturn coils are used in thse machines. On the other hand, low volte mach 1es have smaller number of turns and therefore employ bar winding. The multi-turn coily are machine made while the coils of a bar winding are made by hand. The capacity of pull out machines used for the making of the coils limits the physical dimensions of the multi-turn coil side to.approxima ly 7° x25 mm* with a lenge of slot portion to about 3m and pole pitch not exceeding 08m. Therefor. mu titurn cvils cannot be used for heavy current machines with current per circuit greatr than 1500 A.

These are : (i) In a multi-turn coil there are many turns in cach coil side while a bar winding has only one turn per coil side, Therefore, in addition to the main insulation to earth the multi-turn coil requires each turn to be insulated with several layers of mica tape in order to provide sufficient dielectric strength to withnand impulse voltages. This inter, turn insulation lowers the space factor. ° In the bar winding with two bart per slot the interturn insulation is twice as thick as the main insulation to earth so that no special precautions against impulse voltage: are necessary ’ _. (is) Special advantages of the bar winding are noticed when the winding is a wave winding. A lap connected winding with p pols and ¢ slot per pole per phase require: (9-3) pole to pole connectors and p (¢—1) opti'to coil connectors while a similar wave winding ait M e reversing over one pole pitch and no coil to coil connec» tors. "Therefore, a wave winding ayéide the use ofa large number of connectors and. le ‘particularly useful for machines with a large number of poles. ‘The advantages of a wiading with multlturn coils are : (8) These windings aliow greater Mexibility in selecting the valué~Gf' Itator slots to give a required number of turns per phase. _ (8) Since the: multi-turn are machine made, they nro chfayer than the band ‘winding.

This helps th: designer to design the best and the cheapest winding. Since mort of the hydro-electric generators thete days operate on gtids over a unit transformer, it should not be difficult to leave the choice of machine voltage to the designer. 1253, Beacing'of stator overhang. Electromagnetic forces are produced in the stator due to the attraction between conductors carrying current in the same direction and due to repulsion between conductors carrying in the opposite direction, . Under normal conditions the electromagnetic forces produced by the current carrying conductors are negligible. But during sudden short circuits at the line terminals, the current in the windings may rise to about 15 times the full load current (or higher depending upon the v.tlue of direct axis sub-transient reactance) and the electromagnetic forces, bei onal 10 square of current, may rise to about 250 times the force under normal full conditions. These forces may be either tangential or radial. Conductors in the same phase tend to bunch themselves together while conductors in diffirent phases may suffer repulsion. Any movement of overhang tends to pull the slot conductors outward: and may rotult in cracking of insulation at the core ends. Thus the conductors in the overhang mast be braced ¢.¢: theit mechanical strength be raised. I widely used employs one or two circular steel rings to_ support the overhang against radial forces. ‘These rings are in turn supported by 4—6 steel brackets, The use of steel rings und supporting brackets have the following disadvantages. (8) the steel rings have to be heavily insulated with mica, (66) there is a large core loss in the steel rings produced by leakage flux capecially in ange genieratora with lange pole pitches. Due co this loss the rings get overheated damaging the ring insulation. Fig. 12°4 shows another method of bracing the stator overhang.

The type of rotor body used depends, in general, on the peripheral speed. ‘Tis boup : (6) machined with its shaft from a forging, (#) built up from ditcs shrunk on to a shaft, (si) fabricated from a castosteel spider mounted or the shaft and carrying laminar ring of segmental plates. The forged steel construction is used for high speed macbiucs. The earliust coms truction, particularly at relatively low outputs (below 40 MVA) consisted of « body and shaft extension made as a single forging (Fig. 12'5). The forging has a high tensile strength and is useful for high sp e_machi-es. Howe ever, the cost of the forging and its machining is high and almost prohibitive in machines with large diameters. Another type of construction (Fig. 12°6) employs thick rolled steel discs, 120-180 mm either shrunk on to the shaft or spigotted to each other and formed into a solid ring by axial through bolts. iag is attached to stub shaft at each end.

The spider is therefore relieved of ull centrifugal forces’ other than that due to its own mass and is required to transmit torque to the rim.

In the case of generators with peripheral speeds upto 2 maj the poles are bolted to the yoke.

In the case of water wheel generators having pcriphe'al speeds between 20 to 80 m/s either the dove tail (Fig. 12°9) or the T-head type of construction (Fig. 12°10) is used for fixing the pole to the yoke. Double dove tail construction can be used in case the poles are very wide. Some- times a multiple T-head construction as shown in Fig. 12°14 is used. ‘The crom section of the poles may be reactangular or citcular. The circular ctom ection can only be used ifthe poles are to be massive. The circular poles have the following advantages over rectangular poles’: (3) The length of mean turn of the winding is smallest with circular poles and there- fore cost of copper is reduced. The copper losses are also less. (ii) The whole of the winding surface is uniformly exposed to air and therefore venti lation is better. (iii) The Geld coils with circular poles are circular in shape and therefore they cannot be easily deformed by centrifugal forces.

Generally two thirds of rotor is wound and the rest ore third is left without slots. This unwound portion forms. the so called large tooth through which the main part of generator flux passes. Consider the devel iindrical surface of a turbo-alternator as shown in Fig. 12°19. The flux distribution is shown by the heavy lime curve. The total flux per pole is proportional to the area enclosed by the curve formed by the heavy lines. Now if two more slots are added to each pole, the flux per pole is increased by the amount proportional to the area enclowed by the dotted curve. This shows that only a small increase in flux is produced and that too at the cost of considerable increase in expenditure (33% in this case) and rotor resistance and consequent roter copper loss which 18 not easy to dissipate. Hence the increase in number of rotor slots is not justitied considering the additional cost involved without any significant increase in flux, and also the increased rotor copper loss and consequent increase in temperature rite on account of increased lowes and difficulty in dissipation of losses from rotor.

On account of the high electromagnetic forces produced on the conductors under fault conditions, it_is obvious that the conductor and slot insulation will not only be designed to have sufficient dielectric strength but also have strength to withstand mechanical stresses as well. 127, Industrial Generators, Special-purpose and standby synchronous generators are useful in industry. These units are useful as captive units, and also as units to generate power in case of peak loads and in emergencies. These generators are driven by internal combustion (IC) engines, gas turbines and steam turbines They are invariably d:signed with a horizontal rotor with shaft supported on end-shields or padestal beat The power ratings of these machines is small and therefore they are built with laminations which are complete rings. The use of complete ring laminations considerably reduccs the cost of manufacture and core assembly. tal Jaminations are used in case the diameter is greater than one metre. The stator winding is of conventional type. Modern industiial generators use a 4-pole construction with brushlew excitation, Salient pole construction is used and the poles may be attached to the rotor body using a bolted on pole or a T head construction. Fig. 12°21 shows a typicc: spider and pole aembly for a6 pole generator. In generators driven by IC engines it is necenary to include sufficient Bywhcel effect in the mass of the rotor generator or where this is uneconomic, a€ditionally to attach a flywheel that gives the required inertia, The Aywheel effect provided must be sufficient to prevent unduc flicker in the voltage or changes in frequency.

A low value for SCR means that the synchronous reactance has a lirge value Synohrenuus machines with low value of SCR thus have ‘greater changes in voltage under fluctuations of lund é.6, the inherent vol-age regulation of the machine is poor, (ii) Stability, A machine with a low value of SCR (and thus high value of X«) has a low-r stubility limit as the maximum power output of machine is inversely proportio al to Xe. (iis) Parallel operation, Machines with a low value of SCR are alzo difficult to operate in parallel because a high value of Xe gives a small synchronizing power. This power is responsible for keeping the machines in synchronism The parallel operation of machines with high value of Xe becomes more difficult if they are interconnected through a transmission line. This is because tte impedance of the line betwen generators adds directly to the sum of the impedances of the machincs. This increase iu impedance acts to reduce the synchronizing power 10 that they are weakly held in syncbronim They become more sensitive to t rque and voltage disturbances.

However, the use of unbalanced winding: may lead to overher oF rotor surface due to space armonien, excenive triple frequency currents flowing neutral, with ill effects on loads auch as delta connected induction motors and due to circus lating currents in other generators running in parallel. (i) Cost, A smaller number of slots leads to a slight saving because there are fewer coils to wind, form insulate, place into slots, and connect. (iii) Hot spot temperatures, A smaller number of slots results in bunching of sonducton (i.¢., con Juctors are close to each other) leaving smaller space for the circulation. of air. This gives rise to high internal temperatures. (ie) Leakage reactance, When the number of slots is small, leakage flux and theres fore, leakage reactance is tncreased owing to conductors lying near each other. (e) Tooth ripples, The tooth ripples in the field form and the ent pulsation losses in pole face decrease if large umber of alos ate used” ‘Alot wardorms of generated voltage is free fram ripples. (oi) Flux density in from. With a larger number of slots a greater space is taken up by the insulation. This results in narrower teeth giving flux densities which may de beyond the acceptable limits. Also the teeth might become mechanically weak and,may have to be supported at the duets. The value of slot pitch serves as a guide when choosing ihe number of armature “The value of slot pitch ys, depends upon the voltage of the machine.

Th the resin insulating systems, the main insulstion is ple nd and not mica ‘There are many systems but the two most wed are? 148 ALECTHICAL MACHINE DBSIGN (6) Vaowum impregnated process (VIP system). In this system a number of layors of mica paper, with glas bucking and a binder are, applied to the. cal til the desired insulation thickness is obtained. Tne bars are then dried ia vacuum and are im with epoxy resin in ord:r to fill the voids. After this the coils are pressed to the desired dimensions at 160°C at which the polymerisation is complete. (b) Resin rich process. In this system mica paper with a backing of 0°04 ra thick glass cloth is used. The mica paper is taturated with Epoxy Novalak resin. Mica provides the desir. edelectrical’ strength while the required mechanical strength is provided by the glass cloth. The conductors arc covered with a number of layers .of insulation till the desite{ insulation thickness is obtained. . The coils are then pressed to size anil cured at 160°C to complete the polymerization © The advantages of this system are : (6) This insulation has a higher mechanical strength and is better equipped to withstand, without damage, the large forces which are produced during suddex sort circuit at the machine terminals, (i) The loss angle of epoxy insulated coil is about 25% of that of the bitumen ingulated coil. As the loss angle is indicative of presence of voids in insulation it is clear ‘that the epoxy intulation is 1 stter placed than the bitumen insulation, The presence of voids, over the years, leads tv ionization thereby causing insulation failure. Therefore, the epony insulation with smaller voids has a longer life because of lesser porsibility of inau- ation failure. (iii) The dielectric strangth of ep ay jusulation is approximately 40% greater than that of bitumen insulation which results in 20% reduction in thickness of insulation. (Go) The bitumen bonded mica folium and bitumen im mica taj insulation is capable of withstanding only class B temperatures (190°C), However, synthetic resin mica paper insulation can withstand a iemperature of 140°C an! therefore it can be classified as class F insulation. In fact, it is a common prartice to specify the ator winding insulacion to withwtand class F temperatures but in setusl practice to operate them below allowable temperatures for class B insulation. The operation of the insulation at temp-ratures lower than the maximum that it can safely withstand results in longer life for the intulation. 12-15, Slot dimensions.

However, some more dtall are being given here again ¢ ‘The source of harmonics is the non-sinusoidal field form, if this can be mace tlawsoldal, the harmonics would be eliminated. A field form, which is nearly sinusoidal cat be obtained as explained below : Tha major reluctance to the path of flux is offered by the air gap. If the air ia made to vary slowoidally round the machine, the ficld form wuld be sinusoidal (the mmf should be same everywhere), In saliont pole mactines, the length of air gap is made to vary sinusoidally as described ia article 12°12 on pag: 742.

Fig. 1225. ippronfeaation of dnusoidal eld form can be obtainca by skewing the pole faces, tn cylindrical rotor machines, the length of air gap is constant around the machine and therefore the only way to obta n a sinusoidal field form is to make the mmf of the field winding to vary according to asine law. This is done by distributing the winding in diffes rent slots, In this connection itmay be mentioned here that on account of saturation in iron sts, the field form eannot be sinusoidal in salient pole machines even if the air gap length Prvatied ‘sinusoidally or in cylindrical rotor machines even if the mmf distribution in is mae sinusoidal A fair degree of saturation in iron parts is unavoidable but a degree of saturation should be avoided to obtain an approximately sinusoidal waveform. ‘An ideal sinusoidal Geld form is very difficult to achieve and therefore harmonic emfs will be generated in the winding. The redeeming feature is that the harmonica Gane eal eliminated from the voltage waveform by properly designing the windings ‘The different methods for elimination of harmonics from the generated voltage are : (i) Disteibation, The armature windings are not concentrated but are distributed {in different slots, ‘The magnitude of harmonic emfs depends upon their distribution factors. The distribution factor for harmonics being, small as compared with that of the fundamental and, therefore, the relative magnitude of harmonic emfs is small. (See page 296) (i) Ghording. In short pitched coils, the emfs generated in the two coils do not add algebraically as explained in Art. 6°30 on page 204. The emf generated is proportional 10 os (na) ware ai the angle of chordng and nis the order of harmonic. The emi ly reduced or entirely eliminated by choosing a fs can, therefore, be proper value of @, the angle of chording.

The slot harmonic emf: can be drastically reduced and evan climinated from the output voltage wasform by using ‘ot win lings. In fact, present day synchronous generators invariably ure fractional slot windings on account of the fact that there windings give a much bution factor for harmonics as compared with that for the fundamental (See page 298) Large length of air gap.

Using 5 slots per pole per phase, total number of slotsm3 x 2x 5==30, c+, Conductors per slot= 144/30 a5, This is an odd integer and therefore double layer winding is not povsible. Double layer winding is only pomible with either 4 or 6 conductors per slot and this woyld require the use of either 120 of 180 conductors resulting an excenive increate or decrbse in the val se of gap density, If two parallel circuits are used the number of conductors required is 144x2=0288 with 5 slots per pole per phase, the total number of slots is 30 with 10 conductor per alot, which permits the use of a double layer winding. The total number of conductors is 900, an increase of only 4%, ‘Thus the winding used has the following details : slots per pole per phases5, total number of stator slots 30, conductors per slot==10, turns per phase Tyim50.
