Expression For Back E.M.F Or Induced E.M.F. Per Phase In S.M.

Case i)

Under excitation, Ebph < Vph .
Z= R+ j X= | Zs |  ?? ?
? = tan-1(Xs/Ra)
ERph  ^ Iaph = ?, Ilags always by angle ?.
Vph = Phase voltage applied
ERph = Back e.m.f. induced per phase
ERph = Ix ZV            … per phase
Let p.f. be cos?, lagging as under excited,
Vph  ^ Iaph = ?
Phasor diagram is shown in the Fig. 1.

Fig. 1 Phasor diagram for under excited condition

Applying cosine rule to ? OAB,
(Ebph)2 = (Vph)2 + (ERph)2 – 2Vph ERph x (Vph ^ ERph)
but Vph ^ ERph = x = ? – ?
(Ebph)2 = (Vph)2 + (ERph)2 – 2Vph ERph x (? – ?)                   ……(1)
where ERph =  Iaph x Zs
Applying sine rule to ? OAB,
Ebph/sinx = ERph/sin?

So once Ebph is calculated, load angle ? can be determined by using sine rule.
Case ii) Over excitation, Ebph > Vph
p.f. is leading in nature.
ERph  ^ Iaph = ?
Vph  ^ Iaph = ?
The phasor diagram is shown in the Fig. 2.
Applying cosine rule to ? OAB,
(Ebph)2 = (Vph)2 + (ERph)2 – 2Vph  ERph x cos(Vph ^ ERph)
Vph ^ ERph = ? + ?
...    (Ebph)2 = (Vph)2 + (ERph)2 – 2 Vph   ERph cos(? + ?) …….(3)
But ? + ? is generally greater than  90o
...    cos (? + ?) becomes negative, hence for leading p.f., Ebph >Vph .
Applying sine rule to ? OAB,
Ebph/sin( ERph ^Vph) = ERph/sin?

Hence load angle ? can be calculated once Ebph is known.
Case iii) Critical excitation
In this case Ebph ? Vph, but p.f. of synchronous motor is unity.
...         cos = 1   ...    ? = 0o
i.e. Vph and Iaph are in phase
and  ERph ^Iaph = ?
Phasor diagram is shown in the Fig. 3.

Applying cosine rule to OAB,
(Ebph)2 = (Vph)2 + (ERph)2 – 2Vph ERph cos ?            …………(5)
Applying sine rule to OAB,
Ebph/sin? = ERph/sin?

where   ERph = Iaph x Zs V
