Experimental Loss Segregation in a Solid Rotor Induction Motor

Abstract Solid rotor induction motors (SRIMs) are asynchronous motors suited for high speed applications. This work presents an experimental case study where standard loss segregation procedures for induction motors are performed with a two-phase smooth solid rotor induction motor in order to verify their applicability. Even though the machine is supposed to operate at high frequency, the tests are performed at reduced frequency and voltage in order to avoid the effects of time harmonics. An adjustment in the separation of losses is proposed to contemplate the effects of the high no-load slip,...
