    Armature leakage reactance

    , , , , ,

    In an a.c. machine,any flux set up by the load current which does not contribute to the useful flux of the machine is a leakage flux.The effect of the leakage flux is set up a self-induced emf in the armature windings. The leakage fluxes may be classified as follows: 1.Slot leakage 2.Tooth head leakage 3.Coil-end…
