Is a 3 phase motor a Synchronous motor?
A synchronous motor can be a type of 3-Phase AC motor, or not.A synchronous motor is defined by the period of the rotor being synchronized with the frequency of the stator windings' current. The stator windings might be 3-Phase or not (2-Phase would work).Also synchronous motors are not the only type of 3-Phase AC motors. An induction motor could also be 3-Phase AC and has a few advantages and disadvantages over a synchronous motor.
Is the electric motor in a Ford Fusion hybrid AC or Dc?
It is an AC powered vehicle. It has an 88KW Magnet AC Synchronous Motor
When the induction motor working as induction generator?
An induction motor connected to an existing ac supply normally runs at less than the synchronous speed by an amount described as the 'slip' which is proportional to the torque demanded at the shaft. If the same motor is instead coupled to an engine and driven at a speed higher than the synchronous speed, with negative slip, power then travels back into the ac supply and the motor has become a generator. The amount of power produced depends on the speed. However a normal induction motor will not behave as a stand-alone ac generator. For ac power generation synchronous generators are invariably used because it is necessary to set and maintain the frequency of the supply accurately.
What is the difference between synchronous motor vs induction motor and which one is better?
The big difference is that the synchronous motor's rotor can have a variable current applied to it through its field slip rings. Both types of motors have their own advantages. With a synchronous motor in the system, the systems power factor can be regulated.
Why synchronous motor called double excited motor?
AC and DC supply sources we are given to motor so we are called double excited motor
