machine remains connected to the large power system and the field supply also remains on. The machine will: Select one: a. get burnt b. behave as a Synchronous Generator with no cha
Synchronous Generator
In comparison to an asynchronous generator, it is a machine where the rotor speed is equal to the rotating magnetic field produced by the stator, i.e., mechanical speed is equal to the electrical speed, thus called synchronous, and not asynchronous.
Salient Pole Rotor
Salient pole rotor includes a large number of exposed poles mounted on a magnetic wheel. The construction of a bright pole is as shown in the image on the left. The proposed poles are made of metal laminations. The rotor winding is provided on these poles and is supported by pole shoes.
The prime mover driving SG is lost, but the machine remains connected to the large power system and the field supply also remains on. The machine will:
behave as a synchronous motor and rotate in the same direction
