Are you sure you have the correct words? I've never heard "reentrant" used in the context of a motor. I've only heard it used in the context of multiple tasks executing the same code, but with different data frames.

degree of re-entrant of an armature winding :

it says in an article a winding is a single re-entrant if tracing through it once, all armature conductors are included on returning to the starting point.

how it is 'tracing'? what is the path of tracing?

You follow the wire from one terminal to another as if you were Maxwell's demon. If you cover all of the wire then the winding is single re-entrant.

Hoophoop I think they're just explaining how armature winding is like a single conductor with multiple taps (to commutator strips) but Plz try to get a better translation of your question so we can give better help:cool:

FWIW: If you are indeed referring to the armature of a contact (i.e. 'brush') - commutated electric motor - then I believe the arrangement will be as per post #5 -- To wit: Tracing as per posts #4 & #10 will involve 100% of the winding:)

That said -- I'm no expert on electric motors:oops:

Can you quote the source of the article and if possible a reproduction?

Now listen, Papabravo is a very smart guy and he is saying exactly what I would say.
You have been asked for a reference to where you found this idea and you did not help.

If you have to, "trace" then you look at the wire. The path of the wire is what you, "trace". "Trace" is to become aware of the places where the physical wire exists. The sum of all these places is the path. Tracing is a mental exercise, not a physical activity. You don't move the wire to trace it. You merely become aware of its path.

Now listen YOU are DEFINITELY not a smart guy.
 
I've been reading a lot of the OLD textbooks and subject tomes available via google.books.con

Re-entrant is/was a term of the art in all of them.
Aye! Audel's agrees!:cool: - IMHO, however, the 'trouble' is vested less in terminology than in the TS's 'deafness' to any assertion falling outside the scope of his preconceptions:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

I have a copy of what has always been regarded as the 'Bible' of motor winding, by R. Rosenberg, and covers many kinds of motor rewinding/repair, I could find no reference to the term 're-entrant' anywhere.
