A 6-pole alternator with 36 slots carries a 2-phase distributed winding. Each coil is short pitched by one slot. The winding factor is given by _____________(a) cot15°/3√2(b) cot15°/4(c) cot15°/2√2(d) cot15°/4This question was addressed to me during a job interview.I want to ask this question from EMF Polygon topic in portion Synchronous Machines of Electrical Machines

Answer»

The correct choice is (a) cot15°/3√2

Best EXPLANATION: Slots PER pole = 36/6=6, Q=6/2=3 ⇒ γ=180°/6=30°, coil is short PITCHED by one slot ⇒ ε=γ=30° and Kp=cosε/2=cos15° and Kd=sin(γq/2)/q(sinγ/2)=sin45/(3sin15)

 Kw=Kp∗Kd=cot15°/3√2.
