A 25cps single-phase, 8-pole, alternator with 725 mWb flux per pole has 288 slots. The machine coil has 2 turns per coil. In the winding of the armature, the ratio between the chording angle to the fractional pitch is 1/8. Find the voltage between two terminals.
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.
