It is more convenient to compute flux linkage, and then employ Faraday's law to
obtain the back EMF which can be used to give the torque

Brushless Motor Fundamentals and Motor Design Possibilities
Fractional pitch windings characterizes the windings; the Fractional Slot motor
characterizes the slots that contain windings.
In an integral slot motor, the back EMFs of all coils making up a phase
winding are in-phase with each other
In a fractional slot motor, the back EMF of coils making up a phase winding
are not all in-phase with each other
If a coil spans three slots, the angular coil pitch will be 3 ∗ 48 °𝐸 𝑜𝑟 144°𝐸.
coil span <(𝜃𝑝 =180 ºE)
If a coil spans four slots, the coil pitch will be 4 ∗ 48 °𝐸 𝑜𝑟 192°𝐸.
A three slot coil span is less than 𝜃𝑝 =180 ºE, and a four slot coil span
coil span > (𝜃𝑝 =180 ºE)
