The speed is determined by the supply frequency and that must be divided by the number of pole-pairs.

So a 4-pole motor would run at 1500 rpm on 50 Hz or 1800 rpm on 60 Hz.

When you consider the formula for single phase motor synchronous speed given below should the speed of the motor change significantly with a change in the applied speed?

The synchronous speed of a single-phase motor is determined by the formula ( N_s = \frac{120 \times f}{P} ), where ( N_s ) is the synchronous speed in RPM, ( f ) is the frequency of the supply, and ( P ) is the number of poles. Therefore, if the applied frequency remains constant, the synchronous speed will not change significantly with variations in the applied voltage or current. However, if the supply frequency changes, the synchronous speed will change accordingly. In practice, variations in load can cause the actual speed to deviate from the synchronous speed, but this is not a change in synchronous speed itself.


If a three phase induction motor runs at a speed greater than synchronous speed?

When an induction motor is pushed over synchronous speed it will become a generator and will deliver power back to the utility.


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 the synchronous speed of a four-pole motor connected to 50Hz?

The synchronous speed of a motor can be calculated using the formula: ( \text{Synchronous Speed} (N_s) = \frac{120 \times f}{P} ), where ( f ) is the frequency in hertz and ( P ) is the number of poles. For a four-pole motor connected to a 50Hz supply, the synchronous speed is ( N_s = \frac{120 \times 50}{4} = 1500 ) RPM. Thus, the synchronous speed of the motor is 1500 revolutions per minute.

What is a synchronous motor?

Synchronous motors are those that run only at Synchronous speed ie.. constant speed.


Why is a synchronous speed motor considered a constant speed motor?

synchronous motor is a constant speed motor because it will only run at a synchronous speed or not at all.the speed can be changed by changiing the frequency only ns=120f/p


What is slip of synchronous motor?

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


What factors determine the synchronous speed of an AC motor?

Number of poles and supply freqency determines speed of synchronous motor. For speed control of such motors Variable Freqency Drives(VFD) are used.

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.


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.

How do you find the slip in induction motor?

calculate the synchronous speed from the frequency & the no. of magnetic poles in the stator, then measure the actual speed of it with a tachometer, then subtract the actual speed from the synchronous speed.
