The braking time of a capacitor-excited induction motor estimated from approximation of the fifth order polynomial equation does not give satisfactory results; whereas detailed analysis results, using a computer programme, are very close to experimental values. This paper explains how to obtain optimum values of braking time, resistance and capacitance for any particular motor.
