A 6 -pole, wave-wound armature has 600 conductors and is driven at 700 rpm. Determine the generated EMF in the armature if the flux per pole is 10 mWb.

A 6-pole wave-wound armature has 600 conductors and is driven at 700 rpm. Determine the generated EMF in the armature if the flux per pole is 10 mWb.

Right Answer is:

210 V

SOLUTION

Given

Number poles P = 6

Conductors Z = 600

Speed N = 700 rpm

The flux per pole (ϕ) = 0.01 Wb

As winding is wave type

Number of parallel paths A = 2

EMF equation of Generator

${E_g} = \dfrac{{\phi ZNP}}{{60A}}$

${E_g} = \frac{{(0.01)(600)(700)(6)}}{{60(2)}}$

Eg = 210 V
