AC Series Motor

AC Series Motor: A series motor can be run from either dc or ac (single-phase) supply provided that both stator and rotor cores are laminated to limit the iron-loss. Figure…

Harmonic Analysis in Distributed Winding

Harmonic Analysis in Distributed Winding: The flux density wave of a synchronous machine is never exactly sine wave. Because of odd symmetry of poles (alternately north-south), the space Harmonic Analysis…
