A 3-phase synchronous motor of 10 KW at 1.3 kV has a synchronous reactance of 10 Ω/phase. The efficiency of the machine is 75%. Find input power for the motor.
Given that, output to the motor (Pout) = 10 kW
Efficiency (η) = 0.75

A synchronous motor with negligible armature resistance runs at a load angle of 20° at the rated frequency. If supply frequency is increased by 10%, keeping the other parameters constant, the new load angle will be
Power delivered by the synchronous motor
From data, other parameters such as P, E and V are constant.
The per phase circuit equivalent of a synchronous generator feeding a synchronous motor through a transmission line is shown in fig. Each machine is rated 10 kVA, 400V, 50 Hz. The motor is driving a load of 8 kW. The field current of the two machine are so adjusted that the motor terminal voltage is 400V and its pf is 0.8 leading. Find the minimum value of Em (in P.U) for the machine to remain in synchronism.
For maximum Em, δm = 90° limit of stability
The rotor of a 50 Hz, 4 poles, 3ϕ synchronous motor is directly coupled to the rotor of a 50 Hz, 6 poles induction motor. If the stators of both machines are given balanced 3ϕ, 50 Hz supplies of rated voltage values. The possible induced frequencies in the rotor of induction motor are-
We know that, N = 120f/P
Speed of synchronous motor 
Speed of induction motor 
Given that both the rotors are directly coupled.
If rotating field is in the opposite direction to that of rotor speed.
Speed = 1500 + 1000 = 2500 rpm
If rotating field is in the same direction to that of rotor speed,
Speed = 1500 – 1000 = 500 rpm
A cylindrical rotor synchronous motor is used to improve the power factor of a load 5 MW at a power factor of 0.6 lag. The motor is required to meet an additional demand of 0.2 MW and raise the overall power factor to 0.8 (lag). If the efficiency of the motor is 75%. The power factor of the motor is – (up to two decimal places)
Rating of load is –
P1 = 5 MW, cos ϕ1 = 0.6
Q1 = P1 tan ϕ
= 5 × tan (cos-1 (0.6)) = 6.67 MVAR
Required motor output = 0.2 MW
Efficiency = 0.75
Total load = 5 + 0.267 = 5.267 MW
New power factor cos ϕ = 0.8 lag.
Reactive power, Q = P tan ϕ
= 5.267 × tan (cos-1 (0.8))
= 3.95 MVAR
MVA supplied by motor, Q2 = Q1 – Q = 6.67 – 3.95 = 2.72 MVAR
Q2 = P2 tan ϕ2
⇒ 2.72 = 0.267 tanϕ2
⇒ ϕ2 = 84.39°
Cosϕ2 = 0.098
A 60 MVA, 11 kV, 50 Hz, Y connected, 3 phase salient pole synchronous motor has direct axis synchronous reactance Xd = 1.8 Ω and quadrature axis synchronous reactance Xq = 1.2 Ω. If the armature resistance is negligible and full load power factor is 0.8 log. The power angle is-
For logging load in salient pole motor,

δ + ψ = 3.338°
⇒ δ = 0.338° - 36.86° = -36.52°
