Synchronous Reactance (in a generator analysis domain) is and equivalent series per-phase inductance term (think per-phase winding resistance) and is mainly composed of the machine's per-phase leakage inductance (equivalent series inductance of primary and secondary flux leakage) and armature reaction (distortion in flux introduced by an armature current in a machine, once again on a per-phase basis; described as a series inductance). L_SyncReac=L_leakage+L_ArmatureReaction. That sort of touches the surface of synchronous reactance.

What is synchronous reactance in alternator?

The overall reactance of the armature winding is the sum of its leakage reactance plus fictitious reactance, which is known as synchronous reactance (Xs).Xs=XL+Xarwhere XL and Xar are in Ω/phase. Therefore, Xs is in Ω/phase.The impedance of armature winding is obtained by combining its resistance and its synchronous reactance.

In order to reduce inductive reactance what devices are normally placed on transmission or distribution lines?

== == Add a capacitor or a synchronous motor or a phase advancer to the transmission line so that it can nullify the effect of inductive reactance since the above elements gives capacitive reactance. Doing this also improves the power factor.

How does doubling the frequency effect the reactance of an inducter and capacitor?

for inductor, reactance XL = 2*pi* f *L, if frequency doubles then reactance increase. But for capacitor, reactance Xc = 1/(2*pi*f*C). In this case if frequency doubles the reactance decrease.
