Understanding Synchronous condenser
In electrical engineering, a synchronous condenser (sometimes called a syncon, synchronous capacitor or synchronous compensator) is a DC-excited synchronous motor, whose shaft is not connected to anything but spins freely.Its purpose is not to convert electric power to mechanical power or vice versa, but to adjust.
A rotating coilin atends to produce a sine-wave voltage. When connected to a circuit, some current will flow depending on how the voltage on the system is different from this . Note that mechanical torque.
An over-excited synchronous motor has a leading power factor. This makes it useful for power-factor correction of industrial loads. Both transformers and induction motors draw lagging (magnetising) currents from the line. On light loads, the power drawn byhas.
