Abstract :
It is the purpose of this paper briefly to discuss, from a practical standpoint, the application and design of synchronous motors for steel-mill main-roll drives, in an effort to show what their advantages and disadvantages are; where they should, and where they should not, be used; and what special precautions must be taken in the design of motors for this service.
