Abstract :
This paper discusses experience in applying time harmonic three-dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) analysis in analyzing an axial-flux (AF) solid-rotor induction motor (IM). The motor is a single rotor - single stator AF IM. The construction presented in this paper has not been analyzed before in any technical documents. The field analysis and the comparison of torque calculation results of the 3D calculations with measured torque results are presented
