Abstract :
This paper deals with the effect of rotor skewing in induction machines. Two cases of rotors with an identical number of bars but different skewing angles (0 and 10.23 degrees) are compared. This analysis is based on results obtained from real tests and 2D simulations and models performed with a new FLUX application called SKEW. Two approaches for the calculation of the skewed machine are presented: the N-slice model and the extruded model
