چکیده

Original scientific paper The temperature distribution over the cross-section of an induction motor is calculated at the steady state and transient condition. In order to develop smaller and more efficient electric motors, there is a necessity to carry out more thermal analysis in parallel with the traditional electromagnetic design. It has been found that attention to the thermal design can be rewarded by major improvements in the overall performance. The developed thermal model for Total Enclosed Fan Cooled (TEFC) induction motors is implemented into the design program called Motor-CADTM. The model produced has been experimentally verified by measurements on industrial machines. The obtained results confirm that the developed thermal model is capable of a sufficient degree of accuracy in the thermal design of (TEFC) induction motors.

Fuzzy Logic Based Life Estimation of PWM Driven Induction Motors

Pulse-width modulated (PWM) adjustable frequency drives (AFDs) are extensively used in industries for control of induction motors. It has led to significant advantages in terms of the performance, size, and efficiency but the output voltage waveform no longer remains sinusoidal. Hence, overshoots, high rate of rise, harmonics and transients are observed in the voltage wave. They increase voltag...

Thermal Analysis of TEFC Induction Motors

In order to manufacture smaller and more efficient electric motors an accurate prediction of the motor thermal performances at the design stage is a necessity. In addition, the thermal performance often needs to be analyzed when a motor is used in a different way to which it was originally designed for. An important example is the use of variable speed drives with induction motors designed for ...
