Q.1 a) What do you mean by distributed winding? What is its necessity? Define distribution
factor & hence derive equation for the same.[8M]

OR

Q.1 b) Write short notes on:[8M]

i) Short Pitch Coils

ii) Full Pitch Coils

iii) Concentrated Winding

iv) Distributed Windings

Q.2 a) A 4-pole ac machine has a 3-phase winding wound in 60 slots. The coils are short pitched

in such a way that if one coil side lies in slot number 1, the other side of the same coil lies

in slot No. 13. Calculate the winding factor for

i) Fundamental ii) Third harmonic and

iii) Fifth harmonic frequency waveform. [8M]

OR

Q.2 b) The stator of 3 phase 16 pole alternator has a star connected winding with 144 slots and 1
conductor per slot . find the pitch factor when the winding is short pitched by 3 slots.[8M]

Q.3 a) Determine the Pitch Factor for winding: 36 stator slots,4 poles , coil spans 1 to 8.[4M]

OR

Q.3 b) What should be the chording angle to eliminate 5th harmonic from the phase e.m.f.
generated in the phase of 3 phase alternator? [4M]
