Design of particular electrical machines by using similarity theory and scale factors

Design and operation analysis of electrical machines can be performed by using either full-size or different scale models. This paper deals with the development of electromagnetic field analysis and electrical circuit models of geometrically similar electrical machines based on similarity theory and scale factors. The proposed methodology can be exploited for the design of micro and nano scale electrical machines used in medical and other applications, as it allows the construction of up-scale models more suitable for laboratory measurements.
