ooops, okay sorry ;)))

Penfold Motors even!!!

Next week I get some 1000V 6A diodes. Then I will modify a 800W universal motor from a washing machine and do the scope test (with magnets and pick up coil) to
see, how good it sync's to the line frequency.
Will put a video of this to youtube. The torque of the "Pensold Motors" should
be much bigger than any modified asynch. motor with flats on its armature.

Which test are you referring to? The one you mistakenly thought was happening
or the test I describe in detail using the scope and an infra-red detector /
emitter pair.


At That Set of power/load/rpm.  A

Exactly. That is what the test that I describe does.

I think there is some misunderstanding here. I don't think the sensor
and magnet were triggering the strobe as you do (I think that is what
you're thinking?)

The presumption is that the magnet was attached to the motor shaft
such that it passed and induced a voltage into a fixed coil once per
rev.

If so, the output will always coincide with the electrode passing that
point in space.

If the scope is setup to show both channels overlaid, and the output
from the sensor coil is fed into one channel, with the mains fed in on
the other channel, and the output from the sensor subsequently always
coincides with the same point on the mains sine wave, then the motor
is synchronous.

  Perhaps.

  Depends, rather, on the definition of synchronous.  Anything
  spinning at 3000 rpm (or distinct other rpms) will appear
  synchronous by this test, At That Set of power/load/rpm.  A
  synchronous motor, by engineering definition will lock to
  the line frequency, quasi independent of load.
