EXAMPLE
where To illustrate the application of the method, a three-phase
1OOO-hp 4.16-kV 60-Hz induction motor was selected. A
computer program was developed for PC-DOC environments
to calculate the circuit parameters. The full load power fac-
tor and efficiency, the locked rotor current, torque and power
factor, and the breakdown torque and slip were entered as
input data through a user-friendly menu. The result of the
first set of estimated parameters obtained from the machine
equations (without the sensitivity analysis) indicates deviations
ranging from 0.03 to 2.86 percent between the input and cal-
culated characteristics. Similar ranges of deviations were ob-
tained when other machine data were used. This is in spite of
having exploited the available machine equations to the fullest
