3 Phase Induction Motor

The document discusses the construction and operation of a synchronous generator and synchronous motor. It investigates how the output voltage of a synchronous generator relates to its rotor speed and how variations in field voltage affect this relationship. It explains that the generator's terminal voltage is a function of the magnetic field strength of its rotor, which is controlled by the excitation. It also describes how a synchronous motor receives two electrical inputs - a 3-phase AC supply to its stator winding and a DC supply to its rotor. The rotor's constant flux produced by the DC supply interacts with the rotating flux from the stator to drive the rotor at synchronous speed.

Discussion

The purpose of the study was to investigate the output voltage, rotor speed relation of a
synchronous generator , and so to investigate the effect of field voltage variations on the
output voltage / speed relation of the synchronous generator The students will take part
on setting up the equipment as instructed. As we can see the result shown that the
frequency influence the speed of the rotor. When the speed of the generator rotor is
constant and the excitation is constant, the generator terminal voltage also will be
constant. The magnitude of the generator terminal voltage is a function of the magnetic
field of the generator rotor, since the generator rotor is being rotated at a constant speed is
same equal synchronous speed. The excitation controls the strength of the rotor magnetic
field, and the strength of the rotor magnetic field controls the magnitude of the generator
terminal voltage As we can see synchronous motor is a doubly excited machine i.e two
electrical inputs are provided to it. Its stator winding which consists of a 3 phase winding
is provided with 3 phase supply and rotor is provided with DC supply. The 3 phase stator
winding carrying 3 phase currents produces 3 phase rotating magnetic flux. The rotor
carrying DC supply also produces a constant flux. As we using the different combination
of prime remover with alternator according to it speed label, the result shown output
voltage is unstable. Construction of Synchronous Motor.
Normally it's
construction is
almost similar
to that of a 3
phase
induction
motor, except
the fact that
the

rotor

is

given

dc

supply,

the

reason of which is explained later. Now, let us first go through the basic construction of
this

type

of

motor

From the above picture, it is clear that how this type of motors are designed. The stator is
given is given three phase supply and the rotor is given dc supply.
