Abstract
A small-signal model is presented for saturated deep-bar induction machines. Inductances are allowed to saturate as a function of their own current (or flux), and the mutual saturation effect originating mainly from closed or skewed rotor slots is also included in the model. The model fulfills the reciprocity conditions, and it can applied to parameter estimation and to the analysis and development of flux angle estimation methods. The model is applied to estimating the parameters of a 37-kW deep-bar cage-induction machine, using the data from time-stepping finite-element analysis (FEA). The proposed model fits very well to the FEA data in a wide frequency range.
