three-phase, star-connected synchronous generator driven at 750 rpm is required to generate a line-to-line voltage of 440 V at 50 Hz on open circuit. The stator is wound with 2 slots per pole per phase and each coil has 4 turns. Calculate the useful flux per pole in weber. [Ans. Ꝋ = 36.9 × 10 -3 Wb]
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.
