grounded-neutral wye or delta connected motor. All subsequent discussion is directed toward<br />

wye-connected stators with an isolated neutral.<br />

The remainder of this report assumes that unless otherwise stated in a particular discussion, the<br />

windings are effectively sinusoidally distributed such that the airgap MMF is sinusoidally<br />

distributed in space as shown in the developed view of Figure 3.3.<br />

Figure 3.3 – Developed view showing sinusoidal stator MMF distribution.<br />

Recall that positive flux in the airgap is defined as that which travels from the rotor to the stator;<br />

additionally, flux density, magnetic field strength, and MMF share the same polarity.<br />

The Rotating Field<br />

The most fundamental aspect of a sinusoidal synchronous machine is the stator’s rotating MMF<br />

wave (this MMF wave is the same as that produced by the stator of the polyphase induction<br />

machine). It will be developed graphically and then mathematically.<br />

Graphical Illustration<br />

To illustrate this concept a three-phase wye connected two-pole synchronous motor with<br />

sinusoidal MMF distribution is shown in developed form as Figure 3.4. To simplify illustrations,<br />

from this point forward the stator is understood to be on the top of the abscissa, the rotor is on the<br />

bottom, and the coilsides are drawn anywhere convenient. Further, it is essential to understand<br />

that this discussion regards the MMF produced by the stator alone—that is, the development<br />

proceeds as if the rotor magnets are not present (but the rotor steel is still in place).<br />
