The Voltage Regulation of a Synchronous Generator is the rise in voltage at the terminals when the load is reduced from full load rated value to zero, speed and field current remaining constant. It depends upon the power factor of the load. For unity and lagging power factors, there is always a voltage drop with the …
The Synchronous Reactance (XS) is the imaginary reactance employed to account for the voltage effects in the armature circuit produced by the actual armature leakage reactance and by the change in the air gap flux caused by the armature reaction. Similarly, the Synchronous Impedance ZS is a fictitious impedance employed to account for the voltage …
Armature Winding is the winding, in which voltage is induced. Field Winding is the winding in which the main field flux is produced when the current through the winding is passed. Some of the basic terms related to the Armature Winding are defined as follows: Turn: A turn consists of two conductors connected to one …
Definition: The synchronous generator or alternator is an electrical machine that converts the mechanical power from a prime mover into an AC electrical power at a particular voltage and frequency. The synchronous motor always runs at a constant speed called synchronous speed. Working Principle of Synchronous Generator The synchronous generator works on the principle of …
The synchronous speed is the speed of the revolution of the magnetic field in the stator winding of the motor. It is the speed at which the electromotive force is produced by the alternating machine. The Synchronous Speed is given by the relation shown below. The above equation (1) shows that the rotor speed N …
Definition: The motor which runs at synchronous speed is known as the synchronous motor. The synchronous speed is the constant speed at which the motor generates the electromotive force. The synchronous motor is used for converting the electrical energy into mechanical energy. Construction of Synchronous Motor The stator and the rotor are the two main …
