Abstract / Description of output

The improvement of the cage induction motor's efficiency is a significant scientific subject, since it affects the motor's life-cycle and reliability. Particularly, the rotor slot number strongly affects the induction motor behavior because it is related to the magnetic field's higher harmonic index. In this work, three induction motors with the same stator and different cage bars' numbers, properly selected, are simulated with FEM. The aim is to study and compare the impact of their specific rotor slot number on the stator core losses.
