A study on a novel "3 & 6" induction machine.

M. Tech. Electrical Engineering.Studies the symmetrical six phase induction machine structure, to determine different devices this machine can adapt to and to model these devices mathematically. Laboratory experiments are to be conducted and used to verify theoretical findings. The research objectives are:to determine what devices the symmetrical structure can adapt to ; to develop a mathematical model of the machine operating as different devices and to determine the equivalent circuit of the specific mode of operation ; to investigate both steady state and dynamic behaviour of the machine operating as different devices using Matlab / Simulink simulation software package ; to use a laboratory prototype of the "3 & 6" machine to validate theoretical findings
