Abstract

The canned induction motors are widely used in pharmaceutical, chemical, and nuclear fields. It is necessary to calculate the losses, particularly the can losses, accurately. Combining steady-state ac magnetic 2-D finite-element solutions with the can harmonic loss formulas derived in this paper, the can losses under rated voltage in various operating conditions are obtained. Then, the calculation results under various voltages in no-load condition are compared with the experiment data, which provides the basis for the further performance analysis and motor design.
