... rm4, (for the stator) and rm2 (for the rotor). Assuming that the radial magnetic field H is constant along the circles rm2 and rm4, the flux linkage equivalence between the homogenized ... (influence, at least) the mmf step harmonics. Many of them will be attenuated by rotor-cage-induced currents. To further complicate the picture, the magnetic saturation of the stator (rotor) teeth ... calculate the airgap flux density distribution in the airgap, for zero rotor currents, a rather precise approach is the FEM. With FEM, the slot openings could be easily accounted for; however, the...
