3 Phase winding Design Induction Motor

Slot angle α :-   Phase displacement contributed by each slot in electrical degree.

12 slot stator

Slot angle α = 180/slot/pole

Slot angle is 360°/12 = 30°

3 Phase Stator winding Design

• Phase group :- No of adjcent conductor betonging to same phase.                                                        

• Phase spread (nα):-                                                                                                                     The total angle subtended by a phase group generally there are two phase spread for 3-⌀ winding , 120 and 60° phase. 60° phase spread is prcfered practically as it produce more voltage and more power rating comparatively.

Winding Connection

• Here we can observe the supply voltage is moving w.r.t. time and also the M.F. is moving w.r.t. space which is called synchronous speed.

3 Phase winding phase Difference 

Distribution factor or Breadth factor :-

Distribution Factor or the Breadth Factor is the ratio of the actual voltage obtained to the possible voltage if all the coils of a polar group were concentrated in a single slot. It's denoted by K_d.

                                                    Kd60/Kd120 =1.15

∴ kd60 >kd120 hence phase spread of 60 is most prefered.
∴ kd:- It is the factor by which the voltage is reduced when conductor are distributed.

                            n: slots/pole/phase

Slots/phase:- Always integer

Integer ⤗ integral slot winding
Non integer ⤗Fractional slot winding

The stator winding may be star or delta depending on starting method used (Refer starting method).
