Lap Winding:-In a lap winding the number of parallel paths (a) is always equal to the number of poles (p) and also to the number of brushes. In the given question number of poles is 4 hence the number of brushes will be 4. Wave Winding:- In wave windings, the number of parallel paths (a) is always two and there may be two or more brush positions.
While estimating the overhead lines, the first and last pole is always earth connected and after every 3rd electrical pole, the fourth pole is earthed. Therefore, the approximate number of required ground set = 4
The combined inductance of two coils connected in series L = L1 + L2 + 2M In series adding case L1 + L2 + 2M = 0.6 H ——–(1) In series opposing case L1 + L2 − 2M = 0.1 H ——–(2) Subtracting eqn (2) from eqn (1) we get 4M = 0.5 H M = 0.125 H Let L1 = 0.2 H (since the coil when isolated, its self-inductance is 0.2 H) Putting the value of M & L1 in equation (2) 0.2 + L2 + 2 ×0.125 = 0.06 0.2 + L2 = 0.35 L2 = 0.15 H
