The present paper deals with the evaluation of both the eddy current loss and the self and mutual inductances of the commutating coils of a dc machine armature-winding for railway traction by a two-dimension PC-based finite element commercial code. The comparison among several distribution of the conductors occupying a given slot and among slots with different ratio of depth to width is made in this paper in order to determine, for a given dc machine, the best design solution with references to both the loss and the self and mutual inductances of the commutating coils.
