I believe polo liso here is the opposite of polo saliente ->"salient pole" (please correct me if I'm wrong.) Is there a specific term for this or should I simply say "non-salient poles"?

non-salient pole generators
I think you're probably right. This ref. explains that the non-salient type has a round rotor (i.e. it's smooth = no projections):
Electrical Apparatus: Why two-thirds pitch for generator coils?In a non-salient-pole machine, with a round rotor, variations still exist. The effects of these conditions change with generator loading. ...

On the other hand a salient pole generator has projecting poles, so they are not smooth:
