Why are damper windings used in the construction of hydro-generators?(a) to control losses(b) to increases efficiency(c) to reduce the oscillations(d) to reduces voltage surgesI got this question in a job interview.My question is taken from Construction of Hydro-Generators topic in division Design of Synchronous Machines of Design of Electrical Machines

Answer»

The CORRECT ANSWER is (c) to reduce the oscillations

For EXPLANATION: The damper WINDINGS are generally USED in the construction of hydro-generators. It is generally used to reduce the oscillations in the generator.
