Abstract :
An overview of safe operating areas of induction motors under various control options is presented. The concept of safe design area of a drive system is introduced. A computer aided design method is developed to achieve the best match between a given load and the proposed drive system. Practical examples of scalar and vector controlled systems illustrate the described approach to the optimal design of drive systems with induction motors
