Question

What is 3600Hz has in rpm?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

N=Rotor Speed in Revolution per minute(rpm)

for P=4 and N=3600, f comes out to be 120 Hz.

So frequency of voltage produced is 120 Hz. But this is not practical. Generally 4-Pole generator has N=1500rpm(for 50 Hz) or 1800rpm for 60 Hz. Two pole generator can have N=3600rpm(f=60Hz).

The most practical situation is generator having N=3600Hz with 2 Poles.
