Abstract
Performance calculations on single-phase induction motors require two to four times as much time as comparable calculations on polyphase motors. This paper describes MONECA, a new calculator developed especially for these calculations. It is based upon a new revolving-field equivalent circuit, but can be readily reconnected for many other different circuits. It has shortened the time for many present calculations, made practicable many calculations that were formerly too time-consuming, and has given its users a clearer concept of the revolving-field theory. It appears to have an almost unlimited number of future applications.
