In this work, the coupled analysis of an induction motor
is verified using ANSYS and the temperature distribution
of the motor operating at No load and Blocked rotor
conditions are shown. Furthermore, estimate the magnetic
field distribution at healthy and broken bar conditions. A
higher degree of magnetic saturation can be observed
around the broken bars as a results of the lack of local
demagnetization slip frequency induced currents in these
rotor slots, which might result in a degradation mechanical
