Distribution Factor in Synchronous Motor Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Distribution Factor = (sin((Number of Slots*Angular Slot Pitch)/2))/(Number of Slots*sin(Angular Slot Pitch/2))
K_d = (sin((n_s*Y)/2))/(n_s*sin(Y/2))
This formula uses 1 Functions, 3 Variables

Functions Used

sin - Sine is a trigonometric function that describes the ratio of the length of the opposite side of a right triangle to the length of the hypotenuse., sin(Angle)

Variables Used

Distribution Factor - Distribution Factor is defined as the ratio of the emf induced in a single coil to the total emf induced in all the coils in the armature. It is also called Coil Pitch Factor.
Number of Slots - The number of slots per pole per phase determines how the winding layout is arranged. It is also disclosing information about the winding factor and its harmonics.
