Obliczenia osiowego strumienia magnetycznego w maszynie indukcyjnej metodą elementów skończonych

In the paper results of finite-element calculations of the electromagnetic field in a squirrel-cage induction motor with particular reference to the shaft flux were presented. A three-dimensional field-circuit model of the 300 kW induction motor was developed taking into account supplying the stator winding from the voltage source and the rotary motion of the rotor. Distribution of axial and radial components of the magnetic flux density in the end-winding region and the bearing region as well as transie nt waveforms of the shaft flux were computed at the initial period of the motor start-up.
