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.

![7. A 3-phase, Y-connected, 2-pole alternator runs at 3,600 r.p.m. If there are 500 conductors per phase in
series on the armature winding and the sinusoidal flux per pole is 0.1 Wb, calculate the magnitude and
frequency of the generated voltage from first principles.
8. One phase of a 3-phase alternator consists of twelve coils in series. Each coil has an r.m.s. voltage of
10 V induced in it and the coils are arranged in slots so that there is a successive phase displacement of
10 electrical degrees between the e.m.f. in each coil and the next. Find graphically or by calculation, the
r.m.s. value of the total phase voltage developed by the winding. If the alternator has six pole and is
driven at 100 r.p.m., calculate the frequency of the e.m.f. generated.
