SYNCHRONOUS MACHINES
• A synchronous machine is an ac machine whose
speed under steady-state conditions is
proportional to the frequency of the current in its
armature.
• The rotor, along with the magnetic field created
by the dc field current on the rotor, rotates at the
same speed as, or in synchronism with, the
rotating magnetic field produced by the armature
currents, and a steady torque results.

Generation of electrical energy by utility companies
is done almost exclusively with synchronous
machines.
Assuming a constant frequency source, the speed
of a synchronous motor does not vary with load.
The stator windings of a synchronous machine are
basically the same as those of an induction
machine.

Dr.L.Kurinjimalar/Sri Sairam
Engineering College
• Synchronous machines:
• Armature winding: on the stator, alternating
current.
• Field winding: on the rotor, dc power supplied by
the excitation system.
– Cylindrical rotor: for two- and four-pole turbine
generators.
– Salient-pole rotor: for multipolar, slow-speed,
hydroelectric generators and for most synchronous
motors.
• Acting as a voltage source:
– Frequency determined by the speed of its mechanical
drive (or prime mover).
– The amplitude of the generated voltage is proportional
to the frequency and the field current

Field Components
The total field rotating in the air gap is
partly due to the dc currents in the rotor
windings and partly due to the ac currents
in the stator (armature) windings.
Synchronous machines are designed so
the flux varies sinusoidally around the air
gap.

Load Commutated Inverters
As mentioned earlier, thyristor current-fed,
load commutated inverters (LCI’s) are very
popular for high power (multi-MW) wound-
field synchronous motor drives where it is
easy to maintain the required leading PF
angle by adjusting the field excitation.
