Design of Turbo Alternators

The document discusses the design of low speed turbo alternators. It provides equations to calculate the diameter (D) and length (L) of the alternator based on factors like peripheral speed (V), number of poles (P), specific loading (Bav), and kVA rating (Q). It also discusses estimating the length of the air gap (lg) using ratios like lg/τ and calculating the mmf required for the air gap. Flow charts are provided showing the steps to determine the main dimensions and overall design of the turbo alternator.
