How is synchronous reactance for a cable defined?

AI Thread Summary
Synchronous reactance for a cable is discussed in the context of short-circuit impedances, as outlined in section 2.2 of the linked paper. The term "synchronous reactance" is noted as unfamiliar to some participants, indicating a need for clarity on its application. It is emphasized that synchronous reactance is specifically defined for synchronous machines, relating the induced EMF in the stator to the short-circuit current at the same excitation level. The discussion highlights a gap in understanding regarding its relevance to high power motors and generators. Overall, the conversation seeks to clarify the definition and application of synchronous reactance in electrical circuits.

How is synchronous reactance for a cable defined?
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
The paper linked has the section 2.2 Determining the various short-circuit impedances.
Hopefully, that will answer your questions. If not, you need to be more specific about which rectance you mean.

Thanks :)
 
Interesting, I'd never heard that term before, "synchronous reactance", but there it is in the paper!

likewise, but then, am not into high power motors or generators for which this seems to apply toD
 
In my humble opinion, no synchronous reactance is defined for any part of a circuit except synchronous

machine: the ratio between EMF induced in the stator and short-circuit current at the same excitation level.

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
