It is important to remember what these assumed winding distributions mean: they are the density of wires along the surface of the rotor and stator. A positive value implies a wire with sense in the +z direction, a negative value implies a wire with sense in the -z direction. The 'rotor' and 'stator' bodies are made of highly permeable material (we. . INTRODUCTION This paper is dedicated to large turbo (cylindrical rotor) generators. Most treated aspects are also relevant to large motors or rotating exciters. In a generator. . The rotor produces or carries the magnetic field and rotates inside the machine.
