Abstract
In the design of squirrel-cage induction machines, torque pulsation and electromagnetic noise always exist. However, they cannot be minimized simultaneously with no matter which slot combination. Electromagnetic
noise is aroused by the spatial harmonics in the air gap which are generated by stator magneto-motive force and rotor magneto-motive force. Generally, stator slot number cannot be changed while rotor slot number and
slot size could be modified optionally. One set of uniform-bar rotor winding cannot solve this problem. To investigate this issue, this paper proposes a novel rotor winding connection topology for the simultaneous
reduction of torque pulsation and electromagnetic noise. 2D finite element models with conventional rotor winding and novel rotor winding are simulated and compared.
