Abstract :
An approach to an analysis of multiphase concentrated winding induction machines specifically designed for operation with static power converters has been presented and simulated by means of a digital computer simulation in previous papers. In order to substantiate the theoretical conclusions regarding the performance of multiphase induction motors, an experimental five phase induction motor and its corresponding power converter and control are designed and fabricated. In this paper some of the design criteria and the experimental results obtained from the tests are presented and discussed
