Probably not. The single phase three horse power motor will be much larger in physical size than its three phase counterpart, and will probably not fit.
The difference between a single phase and a three phase motor is the amount of power conductors that feed the device. As to the other part of the question a three phase motor will not start or run on single phase. The phase angles on three phase are 120 degrees apart on a single phase system they are 180 degrees apart.

Yes the minimum voltage of an 115vac 400 Hz 3 phase motor will run. You can run a single phase motor on a three service but you cannot be run on a single phase.

In an emergency and for a short period of time you can single phase a three phase motor but the motor will be loud, have terrible power characteristics and depending upon the use will burn up rather quickly. You should never try to run this in other than a life threatening emergency situation, the motors are not designed for it. Normally you don't. <<>> A three phase motor will not start on single phase. If the motor was started on three phase and loses a phase, it will stay running at a lower percentage of efficiency. Now a days the motor protection will not let a three phase motor run in a single phasing condition. All three phase legs of the motor are monitored and in a single phase condition the other two legs of the motor draw a higher current. This higher current is sensed by the motor's overload heaters in the motor's contactor and take the motor off line by opening the motor contactor. Now to the question, any two legs of a three phase system in electrical terms is known as single phase. As long as the three phase voltage matches the voltage needed in the single phase power diagram it can be connected to operate single phase equipment.
To use a single/one phase motor instead of a three phase motor is possible if you have a three phase power supply as you will only need to tap one of the three phases together with neutral and an earthwire, however to use a three phase motor instead of a single phase will require the provision of three phase power supply.
You still need the same horsepower. The advantage of the three-phase motor is that it will draw lower current.
Single phase motor winding is often checked just by listening to the noise that the motor is making. An experienced person can tell if the motor is working at single phase or double phase.
No. That would be a single phase motor.
Yes, you can, and it won't burn out IF>>> the horsepower rating is the SAME. Pay attention to wiring and motor rotation. Also check the voltage: the motor voltage must be the same as the voltage between two hots of your 3 phase system. You will only use two hots as this is a single phase motor.
The motor cannot be altered to work on single phase power. You will either have to put in a new single phase motor or use a phase convertor box. Do a google search for phase convertor - you will find plenty.
The difference between a single phase and a three phase motor is the amount of power conductors that feed the device.

The phase angles on three phase are 120 degrees apart on a single phase system they are 180 degrees apart.
No, a single phase motor cannot be directly connected to a three phase soft start. A single phase motor requires a single phase power supply, while a three phase soft start is designed for three phase motors. Using the correct soft start for the motor type is essential for proper operation and protection of the equipment.
You will need to install a phase converter or change the motor to single phase. You can find a licensed electrician at www.contraxtor.com
