The slot leakage can be calculated by making which of the following assumptions ?

Correct answer: D. All of the above

  • A. The current in the slot conductors is uniformly distributed over their cross-section
  • B. The leakage path is straight across the slot and around the iron at the bottom
  • C. The permanence of air paths is only considered. The reluctance of iron paths is assumed as zero
  • D. All of the above

Explanation

Slot-leakage calculations assume uniformly distributed slot current, a simplified straight leakage path, and negligible iron reluctance so that only air-path permeance is considered.
