Abstract :
In AC-machines with concentrated, non-overlapping stator windings the calculation of the winding factor xi - especially the pitch factor xip is difficult as the coil embraces only one tooth. This paper attempts to verify several xip-choices using an uncommon approach with finite element (FE) analysis. The results match good with classical analytical xip calculation methods
