Item 10 to 13:
The output per pole is 5/4 = 1.25hp and it appears that a suitable pole pitch will be about 4.25
in. This would require a stator diameter (internal) of (4 x 4.25)/ =5.411 in. The peripheral
velocity of the rotor is approximately,
V = 10 x 60 x 4.25 = 2,550 fpm
The gross length of the stator core (or the length of the air gap measured
parallel with shaft) is
=

146
= 4.055 4.1 .
(6)2

.
Item 14 and 15:
With a gross length of stator of only 4.25 in., two in. vent duct should be
sufficient. Then, if the stacking factor is taken as 0.9, the net length of iron is
= 0.9 ( 4.25 0.5 ) = 3.375
Items 16 to 20

The figures in the third column are the slot pitch, which results from dividing the pole pitch of
4.25 in. By the number of slots per pole; the calculated number of conductors per slot, by
formula (69), in the fourth column, is
=

430
=

13

Then the number of conductors in the series per phase (item 20) is
= = 140
Item 21 to 24: Having decided upon the number of conductors, the necessary flux per pole
should be calculated so as to check the air-gap and tooth densities.
=

127 108
= 709,415
2.22 0.96 60 140

The corrected value of air-gap density (average values) is

Bg" =

709,415
= 40,613
(4.25)(4.1)

The maximum value (sine wave assumption) is

40,613 = 63,794 . .
2
In order to calculate the minimum permissible tooth width, a tooth density must be assumed
(refer to Art. 100). Let us try B = 85,000
63,794 0.354 4.11
= 0.35 .
85,000 3.375

t =

The corrected maximum apparent tooth density (item 22) is

Item 25 to 28:
Slot lining..0.035
12 wires..1.116
Slot lining and wedge..0.065
Tooth thickness0.070
Allowance for space between wires..0.054
Total slot depth....1.34 in
Item 29 to 32: the mean length per turn of the stator winding is, approximately,
Mlt in in. = (2 4.11) + (2.3 4.25) + 6 = 23.995 .
The resistance per phase winding

1.846

= 0.161
1,000
2
The IR drop per phase (item 31) is 13 x 0.161 = 2.1 V
The total cu. Loss in stator (item 32) is 3 x 2.1 x 13 = 82 W
Item 33 to 35: The amount of leakage flux is small and, assuming the flux in stator core to be
one-half the flux in the air gap, the radical depth of core below the slots should be
690,000
= 1.704
2 60,000 3.375

Item 36 to39: The weight of iron in the teeth is, therefore

0.28 x 0.422 x 1.34 x 4.27 x 36 = 24.4 lb
Item 40 to 41:
The number of squirrel cage bar will be made 31. With a difference of (36-31) = 5 between rotor
and stator slots, this will fulfill conditions (1) and (2) indicated in that article concerning cogging
and synchronous cusps.
Item 42 to 48 equating the primary and secondary ampere-conductors, we have
Ir x 31 = (0.85 x Ic) x (3Z)
Whence the current in each rotor conductor is
Ir = 0.85 x 26.2 x 3 x 144/31 = 311amp.
The width of rotor tooth at the root is
2 (3.5-0.67)/31 -0.2 = 0.375
Whence, if the net core length is the same as in the stator?
Max tooth density = /2 x (4 x 690,000) / 31 x 4.27 x 0.375
The resistance per rotor bar since
6.75/[0.2 x 0.6 x (4/) x 10^6] = 4.42 x 10^5 ohm
Whence the I^2R loss in the slot conductor is
31 x (311) ^2 x 4.42 x 10^-5 = 132 watts
Item 49 to 50: the current in the end rings
Ic = 31 x 311/(4 x ) = 765 amp
Let z be the total rotor I^2R loss; then
0.05 = x/7,460 + x
The resistance of the two end rings will, therefore be
Rc = (2 x 19) x 4/ (m) =152/(m)
