Electrical Engineering · Synchronous Machines
In a synchronous generator, the coil span factor (or pitch factor) is defined as the ______.
- 1ratio of the actual voltage obtained to the possible voltage if all the coils of a polar group were concentrated in a single slot
- 2ratio of the phasor sum of coil voltages per phase to the arithmetic sum of coil voltages per phase
- 3ratio of the voltage generated in a full-pitch coil to the voltage generated in a short-pitch coil
- 4ratio of the voltage generated in a short-pitch coil to the voltage generated in a full-pitch coil✓
Correct answer
ratio of the voltage generated in a short-pitch coil to the voltage generated in a full-pitch coil
