Consider a single phase synchronous machine of cylindrical rotor type. A single phase supply is given to the stator winding, and a voltmeter is connected across rotor winding. For what value of θr the voltmeter reads a zero?(a) 0°(b) 30°(c) 45°(d) 90°This question was addressed to me during an internship interview.This interesting question is from Elementary Synchronous Machines in division Basic Concepts in Rotating Machines of Electrical Machines

Answer»

The CORRECT option is (d) 90°

The explanation is: When θr=90°, the voltmeter reading is zero, because the stator winding AXIS is perpendicular to the ROTOR winding axis, and the mutual inductance Msr is zero.
