The paper presents a method of analysis of a solid rotor induction machine, in which both finite stator permeability and finite thickness of current sheet, not considered so far, have been incorporated. To take the finite axial length of the machine into account, a three-dimensional model of a machine is considered and the analysis is made in rectangular co-ordinates. The method, unlike the previous ones, indicates an easier way of studying machine characteristics, even though it is more rigorous in nature.
