Determine the diameter and length of armature core of a 55KW, 110V, 1000rpm, 4 pole shunt
generator, assuming specific electric and magnetic loadings of 26000 amp.cond/m and
0.5Wb/m2 respectively. The pole arc should be 70% of pole pitch and length of core about 1.1
times the pole arc. Allow 10amperee for field current and assume a voltage of 4 volts for the
armature circuit. Specify the winding used and also determine suitable values for the number of
armature conductors and number of slots.
