Modeling and Simulation of Broken Rotor Bars in Squirrel Cage Induction Machines
Ch. Kral, Anton Haumer, C. Grabner · 2009
Abstract—This paper presents a physical model of a squirrel cage induction machine with rotor topology. The machine is modeled in Modelica, an object oriented multi physical modeling system. The presented machine model is used to investigate electrical rotor asymmetries in induction machines. For the case of a single broken rotor bar a simulation model is compared with measurement results. Index Terms—Modelica, induction machines, squirrel cage, rotor asymmetries, broken rotor bar I.
