Abstract :
Two finite element methods are used to calculate the steady-state performances of solid iron rotor induction machines. They are applied to both smooth and slitted rotors and are used to define the rotor form which provides the maximum torque for the rated value of the slip. The mean torque-slip characteristics calculated under constant voltages are compared to experimental results
