A $$4$$-pole, $$3$$-phase, double layer winding is housed in a $$36$$-slot stator for an $$ac$$ machine with $$60$$ degree phase spread. Coil span is $$7$$ slot pitches. Number of slots in which top and bottom layers belong to different phases is.

When Stator and Rotor windings of a 2-pole rotating electrical machine are excited, each would produce a sinusoidal mmf distribution in the air gap with peak values F_s and F_r respectively. The rotor mmf lags stator mmf by a space angle $$\delta\;$$ at any instant as shown in Fig. Thus, half of stator and rotor surfaces will form one pole with the other half forming the second pole. Further, the direction of torque acting on the rotor can be clockwise or counter-clockwise. The following Table gives four sets of statements as regards poles and torque. Select the correct set corresponding to the mmf axes as shown in Figure.

A stand-alone engine driven Synchronous generator is feeding a partly inductive load. A capacitor is now connected across the load to completely nullify the inductive current. For this operating condition.

Curves X and Y in Figure denote open circuit and full-load zero power factor (zpf) characteristics of asynchronous generator. Q is a point on the zpf characteristics at 1.0 p.u. voltage. The vertical distance PQ in Figure gives the voltage drop across
