Wpływ szerokości otwarcia żłobków na parametry eksploatacyjne silnika indukcyjnego małej mocy

The work presents calculation results of a small (1.5 kW) squirrel cage induction motor. The influence of slots width opening on efficiency and other operating characteristics of the motor was examined. The efficiency calculations were realized by finding distribution of time-harmonic magnetic field in a two-dimensional field-circuit motor model. Calculations for different combination of stator and rotor slot width openings showed influence of these geometric parameters on shape of magnetic field in motor air-gap. Field harmonic analysis shows that there is a possibility to decrease slot harmonics and in consequence, increase motor efficiency and other parameters.
