Analytic Design Evaluation of Induction Machines MIT

Induction machines are perhaps the most widely used of all electric motors. They are generally simple to build and rugged, offer reasonable asynchronous performance: a manageable torque-speed curve, stable operation under load, and generally satisfactory efficiency. Because they are so widely used, they are worth understanding. The contents of this notes are as follows : Introduction, Induction Motor Transformer Model, Operation: Energy Balance, Squirrel Cage Machine Model , Solid Iron Rotor Bodies, Induction Motor Speed Control.
