DOCUMENTATION FOR THE RECTANGULAR SLOTTED STATOR PARAMETRIC MODEL
                               <RSLOT_H>

  All parameters are to be contained in a single file whose filename
  has the extention "des". (e.g., mach1.des)  The first part of the
  filename is the item entered in the ANSYS Input window when "GET_DIMS" is
  selected from the Toolbar. When entering this filename, the characters
  must be enclosed in single quotes ( e.g.  'mach1'  for the
  parameter file "mach1.des" ). These parameters can be combined into
  a single file with the parameters for the rotor.

  1) The geometry parameters related to the dimensions of the stator
     are contained the plot file "rslotsta.doc".  These plots can
     be accessed by the DISPLAY program using the file "rslotsta.doc".

  2) The parameter file can also contain the material properties:

             Air               Material Number 1
             Stator iron       Material Number 5
             Stator conductor  Material Number 6

      If the parameter file contains material properties, enter into
      the Preprocessor before selecting {GET_DIMS} from the Toolbar.


      The following additional distinction for the air elements in the air
      gap has been made:

               Air on the rotor side of the air gap:   REAL SET  5
               Air on the stator side of the air gap:  REAL SET  6

  3) The remaining scalar parameters are defined below:


       stat_id='rslotsta'  The stator model type identifier. (This prevent
                          other model macros from using the data for the
                          slotted stator.)

       npole = number of poles contained in the complete machine

       nsp   = number of stator teeth

       ncons = number of phases per slot  (maximum of 2)

       nspgen= number of stator teeth to be generated

       ggeom = the length conversion factor from the units of the
               parameters to meters (for English to MKS, ggeom=.0254)

       stkthk= length of stack (used in computing the torque)


       stref = level of mesh refinement for the stator
               (1 for least refinement, 5 for greatest refinement)

       mname = identification to be printed out in summaries



    NOTE:

      At the completion of the stator generation, the stator elements and
      nodes are contained in the component group "STATOR". This identification
      is necessary for the other Toolbar items to function.

      The coil elements are contained in the element component "S_COIL".  This
      is required for the coil to be loaded with the Toolbar.
