Pitch Factor in Induction Motor Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Pitch Factor = cos(Short Pitched Angle/2)
K_p = cos(θ/2)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 2 Variables

Functions Used

cos - Cosine of an angle is the ratio of the side adjacent to the angle to the hypotenuse of the triangle., cos(Angle)

Variables Used

Pitch Factor - Pitch Factor, the ratio of the voltage induced in a short-pitch winding to the voltage that would be induced if the winding were full pitch.
Short Pitched Angle - (Measured in Radian) - Short Pitched Anglel, the coil span will be (180 - θ)° electrical (θ = angle by which coils are short-pitched and always less than pole pitch).

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Short Pitched Angle: 90 Degree --> 1.5707963267946 Radian (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

K_p = cos(θ/2) --> cos(1.5707963267946/2)

Evaluating ... ...

K_p = 0.707106781186652

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.707106781186652 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.707106781186652 ≈ 0.707107 <-- Pitch Factor

What is pitch factor for 3rd harmonic?

A third harmonic component of flux density wave may be assumed to be produced by 3 poles as compared to the one pole for fundamental component. In view of this, the angular slot pitch for third harmonic will be 3γ and hence nγ for nth harmonics.
