Design and Analysis of Analysis of Three Phase Induction Motor using Computer Program.

Abstract

In the recent years it has been noticed that the induction motor has become the workhorse of the industrial sector of any economy. This is as a result of its easy means of construction and maintenance. Since the motor is being used for different purposes in the industries, the need to have an easy way of designing the machine arises. The basic design of an electrical machine, that is the dimensioning of the magnetic and electric circuits, is usually carried out by applying analytical equations. However, accurate performance of the machine is usually evaluated using computer aided design method. With this Computer aided design (CAD) method, the effect of a single parameter on the dynamical performance of the machine can be effectively studied by using a computer programming language. This paper presents a CAD approach (using java) in carrying out the design calculations which made the design of three phase induction easy.
