Two Matlab programs have been written for induction motor design.

With the program


Induction_Motor_Characteristics.m it is possible to calculate the characteristics of an
induction motor as all the dimensions, winding data, materials etc. are given in the program
section "Input". The program uses two Functions: Function_magn.m and Function_magnd.m.

With the second program HS_Induction_motor_optimization.m, you can optimize an induction


motor design. The program uses three Functions: Function_Induction_motor.m,
Function_magn.m and Function_magnd.m. The design variables (free variables) and constant
quantities are set into the input list of Function_Induction_motor.m. Harmony Search has been
used as the optimization method.

The program Induction_Motor_Characteristics.m and the function


Function_Induction_motor.m, follow the design procedure presented in Chapter 6.2 in the
book Pyrhonen-Jokinen-Hrabovcova: Design of Rotating Electrical Machines, 2nd edition. The
programmes include references to figures and tables of the book.
