Commutator Pitch for DC Shunt Generator Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Commutator Pitch = (Back Pitch+Front Pitch)/2
Y_C = (Y_B+Y_F)/2
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Commutator Pitch - Commutator pitch the distance between the two commutator segments to which the two ends of the coil are connected is called commutator pitch.
Back Pitch - Back Pitch the distance between the top and bottom coin side of a coil measured around the back of armature is called back pitch.
Front Pitch - Front Pitch the distance between the two coil sides connected to the same commutator segment is called front pitch.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Back Pitch: 51 --> No Conversion Required
Front Pitch: 49 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Y_C = (Y_B+Y_F)/2 --> (51+49)/2

Evaluating ... ...
