Analytic Modeling of Inverter-Fed Induction Machines—A Practical Approach for Matching Measurement and Simulation Data

摘要

Electrical engineers rely on analytical models to design industrial induction motors for different customer-driven applications. These models are fundamental and do not normally consider additional core losses due to stamping or welding or the impact of being inverter fed. To overcome the resulting gap between analytical results and measured data, these equivalent circuit models are traditionally adapted by correction factors. This paper presents a methodology allowing the parameterization of such an analytical model based on inverter-fed load and no-load measurements carried out for several frequencies. The results show a fair agreement over a wide range of operating points, which is acceptable for daily regular industrial applications.
