Abstract

Comparison between the results from the design procedure based upon the value of D2L (volume of iron) and IEC standard used by manufacturers indicates that the basic design equation of electrical machines must be modified by a proper modification factor. This modification factor is evaluated for single- and three-phase induction motors and its variation with motor rating and poles number is obtained and compared.
