Abstract :
The induction motors are being widely used in the industry. With the developments on the computational electromagnetic methods and with the aid of powerful computers, the software tools provided great support to the motor design engineers. At this paper, the design steps of a squirrel cage motor are explained and the performance degradation of the motor due to static eccentricity and broken rotor bars faults is analyzed. ANSYS® Maxwell-2D® and RMxprt® software tools are used for analyses.
