Pull-In Characteristics of Synchronous Motors

Abstract
The differential analyzer has proved its worth in solving various types of difficult problems, of which the determination of the pull-in characteristics of salient pole synchronous motors is typical; but even with the aid of this device it has been necessary in solving this problem to make several simplifying assumptions. The differential analyzer recently completed at the University of Pennsylvania, however, is sufficiently comprehensive in design so that few assumptions are necessary, and the major electrical transients and mechanical forces may be taken into account. Typical solutions obtained by means of this analyzer are presented herewith, together with practical pulling-into-step criteria.
