Number of Damper Bars evaluator uses Number of Damper Bar = Pole Arc/(0.8*Slot Pitch) to evaluate the Number of Damper Bar, Number of Damper Bars provides starting torque necessary for starting the synchronous motor. It also prevents hunting of synchronous motor, that is it reduces oscillations of the rotor when the motor deviates from synchronism. Number of Damper Bar is denoted by nd symbol.
