Modeling and Simulation of Induction Motors with Saturable Leakage Reactances

A new method for the transient analysis of induction machines with saturating leakage reactances is presented. The equations which define operation under this condition are arranged so that the saturation of stator and rotor leakage as well as magnetizing reactance can be readily modeled with three function generators. The method is equally applicable to the analysis of synchronous machines.
