1.3 CUT-OUT SECTIONS OF MACHINES:


1.3.1 DC MACHINES:

1) Yoke or Frame: It is a stationary part called a starter. The functions of Yoke are:
• It supports the field poles and field winding.
• Provides a magnetic path to the main field flux.
• Provides protection to armature from mechanical injury.
2) Field Poles: The main functions of poles are :
• Provides support to the field winding.
• Provide slow reactance path to the main field flux.
• Distributes the main field flux uniformly all around the periphery of the armature.

3) Field Windings: They produce a magnetic field when D.C. is passed through them.
4) Brushes: They receive D.C. from the main and supply it to the armature winding through a
commutator.
5) End Shields: The main functions are:
• Supports the bearings in which armature rotates.
• Covers the armature and protects it.
6) Armature Core: It houses the windings in the slot and provides a low reactance path to the main field
flux and the armature flux.
7) Armature Windings: It produces armature flux when current is passed through them. This flux reacts
with the main field flux and produces rotation or torque.
8) Shaft: The main functions are :
• It provides support to the armature, windings and commutator.
• It helps the armature to rotate.
1.3.2 THREE PHASE INDUCTION MOTOR:

1) Frame
Cylindrical in shape and made of cast iron Provides support and act as protective cover. Provided with
fins to increase heat dissipation.
2) Stator Core
Cylindrical in shape and made of silicon steel laminations Provides space for accommodating 3-φ
balanced winding.
3) Stator Winding or Field Winding
Made of copper wire. The 3 coils from 3 windings are distributed over slots Both λ/Δ connections are
possible.
4) Armature Winding
The armature is the winding to which the load is connected. In small generators, the field windings are
often on the stator, and the armature windings are on the rotor.
1.3.3 SINGLE PHASE INDUCTION MOTOR:

1.3.4 THREE PHASE SYNCHRONOUS MACHINES:

(a) Salient Pole Rotor:


1) Spider: It is made of cast iron to provide an easy path for magnetic flux. It is keyed to the shaft and at
the outer surface, pole core and pole shoe are keyed to it.
2) Pole Core and Pole Shoe: It is made of laminated steel sheet material. The Pole core provides the
least reluctance path for the magnetic field and the pole shoe distributes the field over the whole
periphery uniformly to produce a sinusoidal wave.
3) Field Winding or Exciting Winding: It is wound on the former and then placed around the pole core.
DC supply is given to it through slip rings. When direct current flows through the field winding, it
produces the required magnetic field.
4) Damper Winding: At the outermost periphery, holes are provided in which copper bars are inserted
and short-circuited at both sides by rings forming Damper winding.
(b) Non- Salient Pole Rotor:
1) Rotor Core: The rotor core is made of silicon steel stampings. It is placed on the shaft. At the outer
periphery, slots are cut in which exciting coils are placed.
2) Rotor Winding or Exciting Winding: It is placed on the rotor slots, and the current is passed through
the winding in such a way that the poles are formed according to the requirement.
3) Slip Rings: Slip rings provide DC supply to the rotor windings.
