In Engineering, a synchronous motor is sometimes referred to as synchronous capacitor but not a synchronous inductor.
<h3>What is a
synchronous motor?</h3>
A synchronous motor can be defined as an alternating current (AC) electric motor in which the rotation speed of the shaft is directly proportional to the frequency of the supply current, especially at steady state.
Basically, a synchronous motor is sometimes referred to as a synchronous capacitor because it can be used to correct the power factor (PF) of a lagging load such as an induction motor.
However, a synchronous motor cannot be called a synchronous inductor because the rotation speed of the shaft is not proportional to the synchronous speed of the motor. Thus, they are called an synchronous motor.
