Answer / suresh
motor has a stator and rotor.
if the rotor speed is above the synchronous speed it act as
a generator

Answer / dilip
if it is induction motor, then its rotor speed should be
greater that the RMF's Speed=Ns.
it should be noted that it will draw reactive component of
power for exciting it self.

motor has a stator and rotor.
if the rotor speed is above the synchronous speed it act as
a generator
if it is dc moor, then if you change the supply then it act
as generator

Answer / khushalchand
Only a Double excited Electrical machine can act as a
Generator. Please note eg. you cannot generate power from a
squirel cage induction motor as it does not have a dual
power source, it can only operate as a motor as the rotor
is short ckted. In all other cases where the stator
(winding) and rotors(armature) are powered seperately, only
then energy can be converted from mechanical to electrical
(generator) or electrical to mechanical (Motor)

Answer / taufic
If we are using DC motor. We can DC motor act as Dg set
with combine primemover.

Answer / p.senthil kumar
motor acts like generator for a short period of time when
it was stopped by removing input supply;this is called
regeneration. This regeneration EMF can be used for motor
braking systems in industries.

Show Details FROM:Muhammed Ikram TO:qa@allinterview.com Message flagged Saturday, June 4, 2011 10:07 PMMessage bodyHello all, i want to ask a question to all of you that what is VMM (voltage monitoring module )? how it work,s? i heard somewhere that it compare 1 phase voltage to other phase voltage. but there is also some setting on it. how to set it,s setting. please tell me briefly. Thank,s and Regard,s. Muhammed Ikram.
what are the particle used along with silica gel in transformer breether,explain their functions.
how many types of ratings are there of transformer
Can we pass 11kv power in 1.1kV voltage grade cable.If not why?.
what are the disadvantages of low power factor
While performing load test on DC SERIES MOTOR, does the voltage decrease slightly. Why?
what is the difference between thyristor & IGBT?
Why we use a shunt capacitor or synchronizing Motor To Improve a Power factor pls reply me in this mail dinesh_elect_eng@yahoo.com
