Abstract

This study presents the design and analysis of 3 phase squirrel cage induction motor (IM). This

motor have 4 kW and 36 slots, 4 poles. First, the design of the asynchronous motor is designed using

traditional methods. Afterward, the dimensions and losses calculated by conventional methods are

compared with the finite element method (FEM). FEM is one of the most powerful tools used in electrical

engineering, and it is generally in good agreement with experimental results. After the design of the 3-

phase squirrel-cage induction motor is done, the effects of different rotor slot geometry on squirrel cage

IM are examined without changing the area of the rotor bars. Electromagnetic performances such as

current and torque in different rotor bar geometries is investigated.
