Abstract :
This work uses a method based on the two-dimensional (2-D) finite-element method (FEM) and on the circuits theory to model the interbar currents in a skewed cage induction motor. With this model, the effects of the stator-slot opening on interbar currents are analyzed. Two values of the stator-slot width are considered. The skewing effect is taken into account by the multislice technique
