Question
An alternator rated for 490 kVA, 3.3kV, 10 poles, 3 phase, 50 Hz, Delta connected
has 182 term per phase, Determine length of air gap.
Given: Bay=0.54 weber/m²
Pole are to pole pitch ratio= 0.66
SCR = 1.2,
Gap contraction factor = 1.15,
Winding factor = 0.95
Mmf for air gap is 80% of number load field mmf
Field form factor = 0.68.
