Electrical Machines II
Eb-V=0 If losses but no load If losses & loaded the rotor
Ia=0, as Eb falls back by an falls back by grater angle α
angle α: So resultant (load angle or coupling angle)
there is no voltage Er (Ia) come in So Er & Ia increased with
load or loss existence little decrease in pf
|Ia1CosФ1|<|Ia|: Pd<PL
Effect of Changing Exci. at Cot. Load (Cont)
Hence, load angle have to
increase from α1 to α2 & Eb1
to Eb2 it will turn Er1 to Er2 &
Ia1 to Ia2 in such a way that:
|Ia2CosФ2|= |Ia| : Pd=PL

Procedure of Starting SM with DW
If SM are equipped with squirrel cage winding:
Motor start as IM
generator as a DC motor
Synchronous Condenser
A synchronous motor takes a leading current when
over-excited and therefore, behaves as a capacitor.
An over-excited synchronous motor running on
no-load in known as synchronous condenser (SC).
When SC is connected in parallel with IM or
other devices that operate at low lagging pf, the leading
kVAR supplied by the SC partly/fully neutralizes the
lagging reactive kVAR of the loads. Consequently, the
pf is improved.
Disadvantages
(i) There are considerable losses in the motor.
(ii) The maintenance cost is high & It produces noise
(iii) Except in sizes above 500 kVA, the cost is
greater than that of static capacitors of the same
rating in PFI unit.
(iv) As a SM has no self-starting torque, So, an
