Abstract

All N parameters of an induction machine equivalent circuit may be determined by providing a stator voltage such that the induction machine produces no torque, measuring a stator current for at least N-1 frequencies, determining the tangent of the angle .phi. between the stator voltage and stator current at said frequencies, and solving N-1 equations R(.omega.)tan.phi.+X(.omega.)=0, given one of the parameters, said frequency values and said associated values for tangent .phi., where R(.omega.) and X(.omega.) are the real and imaginary components of the complex stator impedance of the induction machine.
