What is the emf equation for generator?

1 Answer

Answer :

emf = P * φ * Z * N / A * 60

Where,

φ = Flux per pole in Weber.

Z = Total number of armature conductors.

P = Number of poles.

A = Number of parallel paths in armature.

N = Speed in rpm.

emf = emf generated in one parallel path and it is the emf generated of that generator.

For a wave wound generator there are only two (2) parallel paths in the armature. In

such cases A=2 and in lap wave wound armature parallel paths is equal to the

number of poles in the armature winding.
