Hi all,
I tried to post in this post https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/salient-and-non-salient-pole-synchronous-generator.878198/ but I now realize that creating a new thread might have been better.So...
Best regards

- Salient rotors are not used in high rotational speed applications, and we must use cylindrical rotors due to mechanical reasons, OK I get that.
- Why are salient rotors the "preferred choice" at low speed applications, such as in hydro power plants? What are the advantages of salient rotors (electrical and/or mechanical), since hydro power plants use salient rotors over cylindrical rotors at low speed applications?
- Are there any benefits of having a non-uniform air gap compared to having an uniform air gap, and hence uniform flux distribution(?)?
Best regards
