A Saturated Induction Machine Model with Series Iron Losses Resistance

In this paper, induction machine model including magnetic saturation and iron core losses is developed. For this purpose, the space vector theory is used, three models are reviewed: the first one is the linear model that assumes the entire simplified hypothesis, the second model yields for magnetizing flux saturation and the third one takes into account iron losses. In the proposed model, a more generalized approach to induction machine modeling, which account for both iron loss and saturation, is presented. The developed model is simulated for both saturated and unsaturated operating at no load and even in load. The proposed model is validated by experimental results.
