An Accurate Iron Core Loss Model in Equivalent Circuit of Induction Machines

الملخص EN

Iron core loss is the major loss in electrical machines.

It performs up to 25% of total machine losses.

The machine efficiency calculation requires an accurate prediction of losses.

The accuracy of losses calculation depends largely on the equivalent circuit parameter determination and measurements.

In this paper, an accurate procedure of iron core loss determination considering the variation effect of supply voltage, iron core temperature, rotor parameters due to skin effect, and magnetizing saturation.

The iron core resistance is performed as main component in the equivalent circuit.

This resistance is a function of supply voltage and used to calculate part of stray loss as well as iron core loss.

The theoretical model is compared with practical results with high accuracy, which proves the validity of the proposed procedure.
