Abstract :
This paper discusses the phenomena of the axially nonuniform distribution of magnetic flux densities and losses in a three-phase squirrel cage induction motor of which the rotor bars are skewed. A 2-D complex finite element method, taking account of the effects of the skewed rotor bars, is utilized for the analysis of characteristics such as copper and iron losses and the loss distributions are examined. The summing up values of nonuniform losses resulted from the finite element analysis are compared with measurements
