Armature Conductors
CEP
No. of Armature coils
CEP
Maximum voltage between
adjacent commutator segment
(Ecm)
Average voltage between adjacent segments at no
load
Ec=no.of conductors between adjacent segments x
voltage per conductor at no load
=2x turn between adjacent segments x average
voltage per conductor at no load
=2 x turns per coil x no.of coils between adjacent
segments x average voltage per conductor at no load
= 2.Tc.Nc.ez
Nc= p/2 for wave winding and 1 for lap winding
Average voltage per conductor at no load, ez = Bave. L. Va
CEP
Average voltage between adjacent
segments under no load
Ec=2Tc.Nc.Bav.LVa
Maximum voltage between adjacent

Let Bgm be the maximum value of flux
density at load
Maximum voltage between adjacent
segments under load
(Ecm)=2Tc.Nc.Bgm.L.Va
=2Tc.Bgm.L.Va for lap
And Bgm=1.3Bg
Maximum voltage between adjacent
segments under load (Ecm)=2Tc.

So the minimum no. of cols required in order that the
maximum voltage between adjacent segment
should not exceed 30V.
C=2ZNc. Ez/Ecm=2ZNc. ez/30=ZNc. ez/15

C=(Znp).Nc/15=EaNc/15
For wave winding a=2 and Nc=p/2
Minimum no.of coils required C=Ep/15
For lap winding a=p Nc=1
Minimum no.of coils required C=Ep/15
Selection of no.of coils considering
mechanical design of commutator
segments
The minimum thickness of commutator segments at the
outer circumference is in between 3mm-4mm.
where S no.
of slots
u no.of coil sides
per slot
Therefore S and u/2 should not be a
multiple of pair of poles.
If yc is fractional then winding
become unsymmetrical that is
winding requires dummy coil.
