  2. Synchronous motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronous_motor

    A synchronous electric motor is an AC electric motor in which, at steady state, [1] the rotation of the shaft is synchronized with the frequency of the supply current; the rotation period is exactly equal to an integer number of AC cycles.

  3. Synchronous condenser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronous_condenser

    An over-excited synchronous motor has a leading power factor. This makes it useful for power-factor correction of industrial loads. Both transformers and induction motors draw lagging (magnetising) currents from the line. On light loads, the power drawn by induction motors has a large reactive component and the power factor has a low value. The ...

  4. V curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V_curve

    In synchronous machines, the V curve (also spelled as V-curve) is the graph showing the relation of armature current as a function of field current in synchronous motors keeping the load constant. The name comes from an observation made by W. M. Mordey in 1893 that the curve resembles a letter V. [ 1 ]

  5. Synchronization (alternating current) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronization...

    Synchronous speeds for synchronous motors and alternators depend on the number of poles on the machine and the frequency of the supply. The relationship between the supply frequency, f, the number of poles, p, and the synchronous speed (speed of rotating field), n s is given by: = .

  6. Linear induction motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_induction_motor

    A linear induction motor (LIM) is an alternating current (AC), asynchronous linear motor that works by the same general principles as other induction motors but is typically designed to directly produce motion in a straight line. Characteristically, linear induction motors have a finite primary or secondary length, which generates end-effects ...

  7. Squirrel-cage rotor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squirrel-cage_rotor

    A synchronous motor may have a squirrel-cage winding embedded in its rotor, used to increase the motor starting torque and so decrease the time to accelerate to synchronous speed. The squirrel cage winding of a synchronous machine will generally be smaller than for an induction machine of similar rating.
