% Designs a single coil for a 3 phase motor
The coils are wrapped around pegs in an air core stator. There are
nCoils per phase. It is assumed that the motor or generator is three
phase.
The coils are assumed to be circular. This is for a 3 phase motor.
Type StatorCoil for the example in the reference.
