The distribution factor of a winding is less than unity because

  • A.the coils are short-pitched relative to the pole pitch
  • B.the flux distribution is not perfectly sinusoidal
  • C.the winding resistance reduces the terminal voltage
  • D.the coil emfs are displaced in phase from one another

Answer: D

Correct answer: the coil emfs are displaced in phase from one another

The coils of a phase lie in successive slots, so their emfs are displaced in time phase by the slot angle and must be added as phasors rather than arithmetically. The phasor sum is necessarily less than the arithmetic sum, and the ratio is the distribution factor. The compensation is a far more sinusoidal output waveform.
