Abstract

This paper presents the comparison of different 
rotor slot diameter which is designed by using FEM software. 
The parameter is than taken from 0.5HP AC induction motor 
with a 10 rotor slot by means of hardware experiment. The 
Parameter is used as the input for FEM for simulation 
purposes. The 0.5HP three phase induction motor is 
investigated by the differences of starting torque. This is 
because the design with smaller rotor slot can produce high 
starting torque and this is essential for high-inertia loads such 
as flywheel-equipped punch press, elevators and hoist as 
required by NEMA design D. Simulation analysis shows that 
the 4mm diameter of rotor slots have higher starting torque 
than the rest of the rotor slots which is 3.4Nm
