Equation of Induced EMF in Alternator

Derivation of Equation of induced emf

EQUATION OF INDUCED EMF

Let,

Zph = number of conductors or coils sides in series/phase

Zph = 2Tph, where Tp is the number of coils or turns per phase

P = number of poles

f = frequency of induced emf in Hz

φ = flux/pole in webers


Kc or Kp = pitch factor or coil span factor = cos (α/2)

Kf = form factor = 1.11 (If e.m.f is assumed sinusoidal)

N = rotor speed in r.p.m.

For one revolution of the rotor, each stator conductor is cut by a flux of φP webers

dφ = φР

dt = 60/N Second.

Average emf induced per conductor = dφ/dt = φР / (60/N) = φΡΝ / 60

We know that f = PN / 120 (or) N = 120f / P

Substituting this value of N, we get average emf per conductor as


If there are Zph conductors in series/phase, then

Average e.m.f / Phase = 2fφ Zph volts = 4fφ Tph volts

RMS value of e.m.f / Phase = 1.11 × 4fφ Tph = 4.44fφ Tph Volts.

The above equation is true only if the winding concentrated in one slot. But practically it is not true, as the winding for each phase under each pole is distributed and for such cases kp and kd must be considered.

Actually available voltage/phase = 4.44 kp kd fφ Tph Volts

Kp kd = kw = winding factor.

If the alternator is star connected, then the line voltage is √3 times the phase voltage.
