The short pitch winding is preferred over full pitch winding for an alternator because it gives improved waveform of the induced emf as the distorting harmonics can be reduced or totally eliminated and Reduces the inductance of the winding.
For a two-layer winding the number of stator slots is equal to the number of
If the prime mover of an alternator supplying load to an infinite bus is suddenly shutdown, then it will
