Electromagnetic calculation for induction motors of various designs by “ANSYS maxwell

The article considers the calculations of the induction motor with ring windings (IMRW) and ceramic insulation and a classical induction motor with a squirrel cage. IMRW is the newest design that was invented by “Electrical machines” department of UrFU. IMRW and serial induction motor have the same overall dimensions and output power. The electromagnetic calculations are made by “ANSYS Maxwell”. Comparative analysis of the serial induction motor parameters with the IMRW parameters clearly shows the possibility for using the second one instead of classical machines in the environment with a high radiation level. Also, the paper highlights the possibility of using “ANSYS Maxwell” for the calculation of electric machines with various designs.
