or motor [5.2-5.3]. In this chapter, the first attempt at a deeper underst<strong>an</strong>ding <strong>of</strong> the <strong>dual</strong><br />

<strong>winding</strong> <strong>stator</strong> <strong>induction</strong> machine with a squirrel-cage rotor using the field <strong>an</strong>alysis<br />

method is reported. The adv<strong>an</strong>tages <strong>of</strong> this <strong>an</strong>alytical tool are the representation <strong>of</strong> all the<br />

fields in the machine <strong>an</strong>d their interactions as well as the opportunities to determine<br />

possible torque components <strong>an</strong>d the conditions <strong>of</strong> <strong>stator</strong> frequencies <strong>an</strong>d rotor speeds<br />

under which torque components c<strong>an</strong> be developed. The coupled circuit modeling<br />

approach is used generate two models <strong>of</strong> this machine: In the first, the machine is treated<br />

as two separate <strong>machines</strong> coupled by the rotor speed with each <strong>stator</strong> <strong>winding</strong> set<br />

interacting independently with the rotor circuit. The second model presumes that there is<br />

only one rotor circuit (carrying the total current) to which the two <strong>stator</strong> <strong>winding</strong>s<br />

mutually interact. Computer simulation <strong>of</strong> these models is used to highlight the additional<br />

torque component resulting from the mutual interactions <strong>of</strong> the <strong>stator</strong> <strong>winding</strong> <strong>an</strong>d total<br />

rotor currents under tr<strong>an</strong>sient condition.<br />

5.2 Field Analysis Development<br />

In the design <strong>of</strong> the <strong>dual</strong> <strong>stator</strong> <strong>winding</strong> <strong>induction</strong> <strong>machines</strong>, two <strong>stator</strong> <strong>winding</strong> sets<br />

are arr<strong>an</strong>ged to be totally decoupled [1.1]. However, two <strong>stator</strong> <strong>winding</strong> sets might couple<br />

with the same rotor circuit <strong>an</strong>d generate <strong>an</strong> electromagnetic torque. The field <strong>an</strong>alysis<br />

method is therefore used to determine the voltages induced by the <strong>stator</strong> <strong>winding</strong>s <strong>an</strong>d the<br />

rotor circuits including the interactions [1.8, 5.1].<br />
