EEM 5.1-1 SYNCHRONOUS MACHINES 1KW

Synchronous machines are primarily deployed as generators supplying electrical power. For this purpose, their power levels can reach up to approx. 2000 MVA. Additional application areas include large-scale drives for cement mills and conveyor belt systems with power levels in the megawatt range. Highly dynamic servos with permanently excited rotor rounds off the scope of synchronous machines. In contrast to asynchronous (induction) machines, the rotor here runs synchronously with the rotating field.
