Power Derivation in Synchronous Motors

Power Flow in Inductive Circuits

Power flow through an inductive impedance involves voltage sources and a load with a resistor and inductor.

Phasor Diagrams

Phasor diagrams visually represent voltages and currents in a circuit, helping to understand power conditions.

Power Equation of Synchronous Generator

The power equation of a synchronous generator relates the voltage, current, and phase angles to determine power output.

Maximum Power Output Conditions

Maximum power output in alternators and synchronous motors occurs when the load angle equals the impedance angle.

Reactive Power and Power Factor

Reactive power flow affects the power factor, which can be leading, lagging, or unity based on the relationship between excitation and terminal voltages.
