Abstract

We consider a simplified model of a synchronous electric motor, which is described by a second-order differential equation, not containing electrical currents. F. Tricomi found that the phase portrait of this equation refers to one of three types, depending on whether the damping coefficient it contains is greater than, less than or equal to some critical value. Since an explicit expression for the critical value is not available, the efforts of many mathematicians were focused on deriving explicit upper and lower analytical estimates for this value. We use a computer to obtain phase portraits of this equation; the features of its phase trajectories are revealed, which are difficult to notice in known phase portraits obtained by analytical methods. Computer calculations are used to plot the critical value of the damping factor in this equation as a function of the main steady-state value of the angular variable. Linear and sinusoidal approximations of this curve are proposed, and the absolute and relative errors of such approximations are computed.
