The total flux per pole in the air-gap of a 50-Hz alternator is 0.06 Wb. The flux-density distribution is given by T. The coil-span is 4/5 of a pole
Synchronous Generator
In comparison to an asynchronous generator, it is a machine where the rotor speed is equal to the rotating magnetic field produced by the stator, i.e., mechanical speed is equal to the electrical speed, thus called synchronous, and not asynchronous.
Salient Pole Rotor
Salient pole rotor includes a large number of exposed poles mounted on a magnetic wheel. The construction of a bright pole is as shown in the image on the left. The proposed poles are made of metal laminations. The rotor winding is provided on these poles and is supported by pole shoes.
The total flux per pole in the air-gap of a 50-Hz alternator is 0.06 Wb. The flux-density distribution is given by T. The coil-span is 4/5 of a pole pitch. Determine the rms emf per armature turn. Find also the emf per armature turn when the flux were assumed to be sinusoidally distributed.
