5.3 Analysis Conditions
Some note about the analysis conditions are provided below.
5.3.1 Analysis Control
Transient response analysis is selected since the induced magnetomotive force and the
rotation motion of the rotor are time-varying phenomena, and the effects of eddy current need
to be included.
When a half (180 degrees) model is used for the analysis, the conversion factor for both the
FEM model and the circuit is 2.
Since the torque is constant at each rpm in the calculation of the Speed-Torque curve, the
dummy stationary analysis option may be used to shorten the initial transient state.
5.3.2 Full Model Conversion
The conversion factor is set to 2 because a half model is used for this analysis.
5.3.3 Circuit Conversion
The conversion factor is set to 2 because a half model is used for this analysis.

5.3.4 Step
The rotor is set to rotate 1 degree per step in this analysis. The time interval is used to
specify the speed for each point on the Speed-Torque curve. When the analysis needs to run
for a mechanical angle, such as 720 degrees, the number of steps would be set to 721 to
include the initial starting position.
5.3.5 Symmetry Boundary 2D
The symmetry boundary sets the outer boundary of the entire mesh model, assuming all
magnetic flux stays inside this boundary.
5.3.6 Periodic Boundary
The periodic boundary needs to be specified when a half model is used. In this example,
both the model geometry and the direction of the magnetic field have a periodicity of 180
degrees in the circumferential direction. The model is 2D and the center is the origin, so the
point on the rotation axis is set to (0,0,0) and the direction of the rotation axis is set to
(X,Y,Z)=(0,0,1).
5.3.7 Motion
The motion condition is set on the rotating parts including the shaft, rotor core and rotor
bars. The center of the rotation is the origin and the rotation axis is Z-axis, sothe point on the
rotation axis is set to (0,0,0) and the direction of the rotation axis is set to (X,Y,Z)=(0,0,1).
To obtain the Speed-Torque curve, a number of analyses at different speeds will need to be
specified.
5.3.8 Electromagnetic Force and Torque Calculation
For this analysis, this condition is set on the shaft, rotor core, and the bars to calculate the
torque generated in the rotating parts. The nodal force method is used when the condition is
set on magnetic materials.
5.3.9 Slide
The cylindrical slide mesh option is used in this case to efficiently generate the mesh in the
air gap. With this option, the slide condition will be set automatically during the mesh
generation.

5.3.10 FEM Coil
An FEM coil condition needs to be assigned to each phase. The coil regions for each phase
are connected in series, so only a single condition needs to be set to each phase.
The directions of the current flow in the coil region are indicated in Figure 5.1.

5.3.11 Circuit
In this basic induction motor model, the currents in the stator coil are user-specified as input
values.
The settings for the three-phase current sources and the FEM coil components will specify
the typical balanced three-phase operation of the motor.
For this analysis, amplitude is set to 4 A, frequency to 50 Hz, number of turns to 66 turns,
and resistance to 1.48 ohm as shown in the specification, Table 2-1. The U-phase current is
set to 0 degrees, the V-phase is set to +120 degrees (theta+120) and the W-phase is set to
-120 degrees (theta-120).
In JMAG, one FEM coil condition in the FEM model corresponds to one FEM coil
component in the circuit. The conditions defined in the circuit are run simultaneously with
magnetic field analysis.

6 Results Display
After the analysis is complete, a results file is created, which is opened in a new window
with one click. Many parameters can be displayed, each with choices such as line plots or
color contours. The display of the current density and the Speed-Torque curve is described
below.
6.1 Current Density Distribution
A contour plot of the current density distribution in the stator coils and the rotor bars of the
induction motor can be viewed.
6.2 Speed-Torque Curve
The Speed-Torque curve is displayed in a graph using the average torque at each rotation
speed in spreadsheet software. The electromagnetic force of the torque is exported from the
analysis results for each rotation speed to graph the Speed-Torque curve. The average torque
can be calculated by averaging one period of the torque in the steady state. The
Speed-Torque curve shown in Figure 3.2 was created by setting the average torque on the
vertical axis, and the speed on the horizontal axis.
