Information

This information is part of the Modelica Standard Library maintained by the Modelica Association.

Model of a three phase asynchronous induction machine with squirrel cage.
Resistance and stray inductance of stator is modeled directly in stator phases, then using space phasor transformation. Resistance and stray inductance of rotor's squirrel cage is modeled in two axis of the rotor-fixed coordinate system. Both together connected via a stator-fixed AirGap model. The machine models take the following loss effects into account:

  • heat losses in the temperature dependent stator winding resistances
  • heat losses in the temperature dependent cage resistances
  • friction losses
  • core losses (only eddy current losses, no hysteresis losses)
  • stray load losses

Default values for machine's parameters (a realistic example) are:

number of pole pairs p 2
stator's moment of inertia 0.29kg.m2
rotor's moment of inertia 0.29kg.m2
nominal frequency fNominal 50Hz
nominal voltage per phase 100V RMS
nominal current per phase 100A RMS
nominal torque 161.4Nm
nominal speed 1440.45rpm
nominal mechanical output 24.346kW
efficiency 92.7%
power factor 0.875
stator resistance 0.03Ohm per phase at reference temperature
reference temperature TsRef 20°C
temperature coefficient alpha20s 01/K
rotor resistance 0.04Ohm at reference temperature
reference temperature TrRef 20°C
temperature coefficient alpha20r 01/K
stator reactance Xs 3Ohm per phase
rotor reactance Xr 3Ohm
total stray coefficient sigma 0.0667
stator operational temperature TsOperational 20°C
rotor operational temperature TrOperational 20°C
These values give the following inductances:
stator stray inductance per phase Xs * (1 - sqrt(1-sigma))/(2*pi*fNominal)
rotor stray inductance Xr * (1 - sqrt(1-sigma))/(2*pi*fNominal)
main field inductance per phase sqrt(Xs*Xr * (1-sigma))/(2*pi*fNominal)
