single-phase squirrel cage and three-phase induction electromotors are the most popular electromotors used in industry from long ago. when an induction motor starts with direct connection method, it takes a lot of current from the power supply (several times the nominal current); so, several methods have been devised to start such electromotors. these methods either reduce the voltage of the st...

The aim of this paper is to present a new model for the linear induction motor (LIM), which is based on its equivalence with the asymmetrical rotary induction motor. The model uses the theory of positive, negative and zero sequence of symmetrical and asymmetrical components. Experimental and simulation procedures with a LIM prototype allowed the theoretical and experimental validation for this ...
