Why in slip test the machine voltage reduced?

The low slip test is used to determine the D and Q axis impedance of salient pole machines. The machine terminals are short circuited, each phase voltage and current are measured. Since the terminals are short circuited, machine voltage must be reduced to prevent excessive output currents that would damage the machine.


What is synchronous reactance?

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.


Is a 3 phase motor a Synchronous motor?

A synchronous motor can be a type of 3-Phase AC motor, or not.A synchronous motor is defined by the period of the rotor being synchronized with the frequency of the stator windings' current. The stator windings might be 3-Phase or not (2-Phase would work).Also synchronous motors are not the only type of 3-Phase AC motors. An induction motor could also be 3-Phase AC and has a few advantages and disadvantages over a synchronous motor.


Why is the winding of the second phase reversed in the 3 phase synchronous motor?

That might be to make it run the right way.


Generation of 3-phase emf?

The usual way is with a synchronous generator connected to the distribution system.

Why the synchronous machine rotate at synchronous speed?

The spatial distribution of the windings in the armature is designed in a way such that it produce a rotating field when a three phase source is applied to its terminals. The field windings have a DC field applied to it and it is rotated mechanically by a prime mover. If the prime mover tried to rotate the synchronous machine at speed higher than its synchronous value then the power output of the generator will increase and this causes the speed to "lock" again to the synchronous one. If the prime mover applied less torque then the machine will slow down but the power output will decrease DUE TO DECEASE in the applied torque and this cause the machine to "lock" again to synchronous speed of the grid. The same principle can be applied to synchronous motors except that torque is negative (i.e. the prime mover is applying negative torque)


Why single phase induction motor always runs below the synchronous speed?

For exactly the same reason as three-phase motors always run below synchronous speed. If they were to run at synchronous speed then no voltage and, therefore, no rotor current will be induced into the rotor to drive it.

What is Regulation of alternator by synchronous impedance method?

It is conducting OC and SC tests on the given three phase alternator and determining the regulation by synchronous impedance method.


Generation of 3-phase emf?

When is A 3-phase synchronous motor said to be floating when it operates?

on no load and without losses


Why is the speed of synchronous motor is more then induction motor?

Synchronous motors run at synchronous speed. An induction motor that has the same number of poles must run at a sub-synchronous speed to create a second magnetic field (a field that is at a different phase angle) to generate torque.
