In 48 slot, 4-pole,3 phase alternator, the coil-span is 10. Its distribution and pitch factors are respectively ____________

In 48 slot, 4-pole,3 phase alternator, the coil-span is 10. Its distribution and pitch factors are respectively ____________ Correct Answer 0.9577, 0.966

Slots per pole = 48/4=12, for a coil span of 10 slots, the coil is short pitched by 2 slots and the chording angle is ε=2γ and γ=180/12 ⇒ ε = 30° ⇒ Kp=cosε/2=0.9659. We know, Kd=(sin(qγ/2))/qsin(γ/2), here q=48/4∗3 = 4 ⇒ Kd=0.957662.
