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.
When an induction motor is pushed over synchronous speed it will become a generator and will deliver power back to the utility.
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.
synchronous speed
A synchronous motor is not self starting.However when it is provided with some prime mover ,which rotates it up to 80% of sync. speed,then it continues to rotate at sync.speed even after prime mover is removed.It happens so because rotor poles are locked with rotating magnetic field and hence the speed is always synchronous.
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.
only synchronous 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
A synchronous motor runs at synchronous speed, so there is no slip, or zero slip.
Synchronous motors are those that run only at Synchronous speed ie.. constant speed.
A synchronous motor runs at synchronous speed, so there is no slip, or zero slip.
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.
It depends on the number of poles and the frequency of the power. A two pole motor running on 60 Hz would rotate at 1800 RPM.
When an induction motor is pushed over synchronous speed it will become a generator and will deliver power back to the utility.
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.
Number of poles and supply freqency determines speed of synchronous motor. For speed control of such motors Variable Freqency Drives(VFD) are used.
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.
