Because it rotates at a constant (i.e.synchronous speed ) no matter whats the load on alternator.For instance if its a 2 pole machine it will rotate at 3000 rpm to produce a frequency of 50 Hz in India.
Induction type alternator and synchronous generator.
mainly alternator,synchronous motor comes under the synchronous machine.a synchronous motor is not a self starting motor.if a synchronous motor moves with more than synchronous speed then it acts as a synchronous generator.
ASYNCHRONOUS is a mode whereby events happens irregardless of control. SYNCHRONOUS are this same events but controlled by a timing and/or control
when its speed becomes greater than the synchronous speed.
By definition a synchronous generator must be synchronous. If it is not "locked in" it is not a synchronous generator, but an induction machine.
synchronous generator
Starting of the synchronous motor using the DC generator creates a magnetic field.
An electric device that produces an electric current that reverses direction many times per second. Also called a synchronous generator.
It may be called a generator, alternator or dynamo.
yes... sometimes called a generator.
It is conducting OC and SC tests on the given three phase alternator and determining the regulation by synchronous impedance method.
