October 11, 2021 By Wat Electrical

This article lists 100 Synchronous Motor MCQs for engineering students. All the Synchronous Motor  Questions & Answers given below includes solution and link wherever possible to the relevant topic.

A motor is an electrical component or system that transduces electrical input to a mechanical output used in small to larger electrical appliances. They are classified into 2 types AC type electric motor, and DC type electric motor. As power factor plays a major role in any electrical appliances that are the ratio of power applied to the power required.

A synchronous motor is a classification of AC type electric motor that maintains the power factor as “1”. This motor comprises of stator and rotor as the main components responsible for the operation of the motor on the interaction between stator and rotors magnetic fields. A synchronous type electric motor operates at a steady based state, where the shaft rotation is in synchronization with applied currents frequency.

They are further classified based on rotors magnetization property as direct current excited motors like permanent magnet synchronous motor, reluctance type motor and hysteresis motor; and non-excited motor. The advantages provided by the synchronous motor are its unity power factor and operating at a constant speed. But limit in terms of more DC excitation requirements and the absence of self-starting property. They are employed in fields of ball mills, robot actuators, record players, fans, etc.
