The model of the squirrel cage AC Motor including rotor slot harmonics

The model of the squirrel cage AC Motor is based on multiple coupled circuits and takes into account the geometry and winding layout of the machine. All inductances are derived by means of the winding function approach and are integrated with the decomposition into their Fourier series. An important issue in such effort is the modeling of the induction motor including rotor slot harmonics (RSH) under symmetrical and asymmetrical conditions, with minimum computational complexity.
