How flux is setup in the air gap of machine?
What is the wave shape of this flux?
Consider a Synchronous GeneratorThe generator rotor has a salient pole type rotor and field winding is found
on it. Consider it as concentrated winding.
Elementary Machines
The field current (DC) is fed to the field winding by means of slip rings. This
current setup magnetic field in the air gap. One end of salient pole
construction becomes North Pole and the other becomes South Pole. Flux lines
originated from North Pole enters the air gap and then after passing through
the stator core (zero reluctance path) it again enters back in the south pole.
Flux is maximum along the magnetic axis and minimum along the inter polar
axis.
If the shape of shoe of the pole is such that the air gap is uniform then along
the pole shoe periphery flux remain almost constant in this region.
If the rotor is rotating at a speed w rad/s and let us try to understand how
the magnetic field varies with time at a particular point in the air gap.
Elementary Machines
The value of flux density in the air gap along the stator periphery changes
sinusoidal with rotation of the rotor. The resulted flat topped flux density
wave is shown in fig-3.
As we desire to achieve sinusoidal wave shape for induced EMF, the flux
density wave should be sinusoidal in nature.

In a DC generator field winding is placed on stator where as armature
winding is placed on the rotor.
