Abstract
This paper presents a more precise model for computation of three-phase squirrel cage induction machine inductances under different eccentric conditions. Generally, available techniques are based on the winding function theory and simplification and geometrical approximation of unsymmetrical models of the motor under mixed eccentricities. This paper determines a precise geometrical model under the mixed eccentricity conditions and evaluates the inductances. Meanwhile, the evaluated inductances are compared to those calculated using different approximate geometrical models and the best approximation is recommended for a geometrical modeling of induction motor under eccentricity conditions.
