Abstract
The induction motor designed for the variable speed applications are different from those which are designed for constant speed applications. This paper deals with the method for the design of induction motor for variable speed applications starting from the analytical calculation of equivalent circuit parameters. Finally, the main dimensions of the motor geometries are provided by using the relation between the circuit parameters and geometries of a real induction machine. The proposed approach also minimizes the problems caused by the conventional motor design methods for the variable speed application. The effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed design can be verified through Finite Element analysis for practical design.
