Performance analysis of induction machines with unconventional winding configurations.

Abstract: This paper presents the performance of fractional slots distributed windings (FSDW) and fractional slots concentrated windings (FSCW) of three-phase squirrel cage induction machines. The different windings have been designed and modeled using the same machine physical and electrical parameters. The Finite Element Model (FEM) of the machine for the different windings has been carried out. The results for the machine with FSDW and FSCW are compared to the results of the conventional double layer (CDL) with 8/9 chorded coil
