Why synchronous motor is called synchronous capacitors?

A synchronous motor can operate as either a Generator or a Motor.When a synchronous motor has current applied to the windings on its rotor and the stator is energized with say a 50hz line supply (with little or no physical load) then the exact amount of excitation provided by the rotor can determine whether the stator displays inductive or capacitive properties.If the rotor is under excited (too Little rotor current) the Synchronous Motor will behave as an Inductor, however if the rotor is over excited then the Synchronous Motor will behave like a Capacitor.Hope this helps


When load on a normally excited synchronous motor is increased its power factor tends to what?

approach unit


Does a induction motor need excitation?

The induction motor is the special kind of motor which runs below and above the synchronous speed. which the synchronous motor runs nearly equal the synchronous speed. The operation of synchronous motor runs with dc field excited hence separate dc field current is given to the field circuit. where as the induction motor the field and main field is drawn from the same supply hence no excitation is required. But due to this separate starting mechanism has to be required in case of the single phase induction motor.


Why the DC motor is call as synchronous motor?

A 60Hz synchronous motor spins at synchronous speed - if it's a two pole motor it will spin at exactly 1800 rpms. An asynchronous motor will spin at a speed lower than the power supply frequency - a symilar asynchronous motor may spin at 1700 rpms.


Which motor rotate above synchronous speed?

An induction motor rotating at higher than synchronous speed would be generating power, thus would be a generator. No motor operating as a motor runs above synchronous speed.

What is synchronus capacitor?

A synchronous condenser (also known as a synchronous capacitor or synchronous compensator) is a DC-excited synchronous computer (large rotating generators) whose shaft is now not connected to any using equipment.

Is a DC motor single excited or double excited?

It is doubly excited if it is sparately excited dc motor, singly excited if it is self excited machine

What is synchronous machein?

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.

What is slip of synchronous motor?

A synchronous motor runs at synchronous speed, so there is no slip, or zero slip.
