Design 5 A.C. Generator

This document contains the design specifications and calculations for an AC generator armature. It lists 43 items related to the generator's specifications, symbols used, preliminary assumed values, and final calculated values. The key steps include: 1) Assuming values for number of poles, peripheral speed, phase connection, specific loading, and other preliminary parameters. 2) Calculating values like line current, armature ampere-turns, pole pitch, number of slots from the assumptions. 3) Determining the type of winding will be single layer, with 20 slots per pole per phase and 3 conductors per slot. 4) Computing final values for items like slot pitch, axial length of the core, current density

The reactive voltage drop per phase due to the end flux cannot be
predetermined accurately; but we may use the empirical formula (75) of Art 78,
Wherein the symbols have the following numerical values:

The equivalent average projection of the winding beyond the ends of the slots
may be computed by noting that, with a mean length per turn of 210 in., the
average projection beyond ends of slots will be
(
)
Since we have a single-layer winding, the factor
must be introduced into
formula (75), whence with the current
the reactive voltage due to
cutting of the end flux, with full-load current per phase, is
(
