Advantages and disadvantages of synchronous motors


Advantages and disadvantages of synchronous motors


Advantages of synchronous motors


1. The speed is constant and independent of load. 

2. These motors usually operate at higher efficiency

3 .Electromagnetic power varies linearly with the voltage.

4. These motors can be constructed with wider air gaps than induction motors, which make them              better mechanically.

5. An over excited synchronous motor having a leading power factor can be operated in parallel with     induction motors.
