Method of unaligned permeance determination for a doubly‐salient rectilinear airgap with infinite slot depth is used in order to cover a wider range of gap geometry. The results are arranged in a more convenient form than is available in the literature. A set of new correction factor curves for finite slot depth and taper are then obtained. These data can directly give the unaligned permeance of a rectilinear slotted geometry for given airgap proportions (t/λ and λ/g, where λ is the tooth pitch, t is the tooth width and g is the airgap length). A wide and useful range of airgap proportions are covered, the aim having been to encompass all geometries likely to be of practical importance.
