Damper windings are used in synchronous machines, such as synchronous motors and generators, to improve their stability and performance. These windings help to dampen oscillations during transient conditions and provide additional torque under certain operating conditions. ### Key Functions of Damper Windings: 1. **Damping of Oscillations**: When a synchronous machine experiences disturbances, such as sudden changes in load or voltage, it can lead to oscillations.
