2. Building the winding architecture - Easy mode – Main principles

|
| Building the winding architecture - Easy mode | |
| 1 | Selection of the Easy mode for building the winding architecture. |
| 2 |
Selection of coil pitch. The proposed solutions depend on the number of slots, the number of poles and the number of phases. Example 1: With 12 slots,10 poles and 3 phases, only one solution is proposed: a tooth winding. Example 2: With 48 slots, 8 poles and 3 phases, two solutions are proposed: 5 or 6. For various possibilities, a list of solutions is proposed. |

Selection of the number of layers. The proposed solutions depend on the number of slots, the number of poles and the number of phases. Example: With 12 slots, 10 poles and 3 phases, only one solution is proposed: 1 layer. The three possible cases are illustrated below. |
| 4 | Number of parallel paths. The possible numbers of parallel paths are automatically computed and proposed to the user. When the user chooses a number of parallel paths, the connections on the winding scheme are automatically updated. See examples in Auto mode chapter. |
| 5 | Selection of winding type: Concentric or Lap.Illustration of these two types of winding is given below. |
| 6 | Definition of the phase sequence i.e. the rotation direction of the
Magneto-Motive Force (M.M.F): Clockwise or Counter clockwise.The rotation direction is defined when facing the machine on the connection side. |
| 7 | Icon to restore default input values. Default values are those which defined the winding architecture by using the automatic mode. |
| 8 | Icon to apply inputs. Pressing the enter key twice applies inputs too. |
| 9 | Icon to export winding data into a text file |
3. Number of layers
 |
|
| Building the winding architecture – The number of layers is represented in the winding scheme | |
| 1 | Example where the No. layers is equal to 1. |
| 2 | Example where the No. layers is equal to 2. |
4. Coil pitch
 |
|
| Building the winding architecture – Definition of the coil pitch(N° Slot return coil) - (N° Slot Go coil) | |
| 1 | Example where the coil pitch is equal to 5 - From slot 1 to slot 6 (6-1 = 5). |
| 2 | Example where the coil pitch is equal to 6 - From slot 1 to slot 7 (7-1 = 6). |
5. Winding type
 |
|
| Building the winding architecture – Definition of the winding type: Lap or Concentric | |
| 1 | Example for the concentric winding type. |
| 2 | Example for the Lap winding type. |
