  • Abstract
    This work describes MATLAB/Simulink implementation of three induction motor tests, namely dc, no-load, and blocked-rotor tests performed to identify equivalent circuit parameters. These simulation models are developed to support and enhance electric machinery education at the undergraduate level. The proposed tests have been successfully integrated into electric machinery courses at Drexel University, Philadelphia, PA, and Nigde University, Nigde, Turkey.
