Number Of Slots Per Pole Per Phase Formula
A 30 amp two pole breaker allows up to 30 amps per leg or phase to conduct in fact provided a 'total' of 60 amps. However, 220 volt devices require the rated amperage for each leg. The usualy terminology for this is to say there are 2 slots per phase per pole. In the nine-coil system there are 3 slots per phase per pole. For the general case will use (q ) to define slots per phase per pole, (p ) to define the number of poles (two so far) and (Nslots ) the number of slots, (Np ) the number of phases. If the number of slots per pole per phase 𝒒𝒒= 𝑺𝑺 𝒎𝒎𝑷𝑷. Is an integer, then the winding is called an. Integral-slot winding in case the number of slots per pole per phase, q is not an integer, the winding is called. Fractional-slot winding. For example a 3-phase winding with 36 slots and 4 poles is an integral slot.
The number of slots per pole per phase determines how the winding layout is arranged. It is also disclosing information about the winding factor and its harmonics.
If the number of slots/pole/phase is an integer, the winding is called integer-slot winding.
If the number of slots/pole/phase is fractional and superior to 1, the winding is called fractional-slot winding.
If the number of slots/pole/phase is fractional and inferior to 1, the winding is called concentrated winding.
Windings with the same number of slots/pole/phase $q$ have the same winding factor. Their winding layouts consist of the same basic sequence repeated by the number of winding symmetries (or machine periodicity).
Example:
10-pole 12-slot single-layer 3-phase winding: $q=frac{12}{10cdot 3}=frac{2}{5}$, fundamental winding factor: 0.966, one winding symmetry.
20-pole 24-slot single-layer 3-phase winding: $q=frac{24}{20cdot 3}=frac{2}{5}$, fundamental winding factor: 0.966, two winding symmetries.
The number of slots/pole/phase is also an indicator about what winding factor and winding-factor harmnoics one can expect.
Example 1:
The harmonic spectrum of the winding factor of 4-pole 3-phase integer-slot windings in Fig. 1 shows that an increasing number of slots/pole/phase (from $q=1$ for the 12-slot winding to $q=5$ for the 60-slot winding) leads to a steady decrease of the fundamental winding factor. However, since the coils are distributed over several slots per pole per phase, the back-EMF gets more sinusoidal. This fact is reflected in significantly reduced winding factor harmonics of order three and higher, cf. Fig. 1.
Fig. 1 Winding factor harmonics for 4-pole 3-phase integer-slot windings with different number of slots/pole/phase.
Example 2:
For concentrated windings, the fundamental winding factor increases and decreases as a function of the number of slots/pole/phase as shown in Fig. 2. The highest fundamental winding factors are found when the number of slots is closest to the number of poles, ie. $q0007pprox 1/3$.
