Abstract

Low-power machines were commonly considered as the main application field of concentrated windings. However, a lot of paper have recently been published, which address both the theory of these windings and specific cases of their application for large synchronous machines. The article presents an analysis of the parameters of concentrated windings having various configurations intended for use in high-power gear and gearless wind generators. In assessing the winding, not only the high winding factor value was taken into account, but also the star of slot EMFs, harmonic spectra of the MMFs and EMFs, the cogging torque component and torque pulsation under load, as well as emerging losses. It is shown that the well-known advantages of concentrated windings over distributed windings can be fully realized by choosing the appropriated numbers of slots and poles.
