Electromagnetic and Thermal Analysis of Squirrel Gage Canned Induction Motor for SMART Main Coolant Pump

SMART용 냉각재순환펌프에 장착되는 농형유도전동기의 전자기 및 열해석

A squirrel cage canned induction motor for the main coolant pump of the integral reactor, SMART was designed, manufactured and tested. The motor was first designed using the equivalent circuit theory to determine major dimensions and then finalized through finite element analyses for electromagnetic and thermal characteristics. In order to verify the design methodology, a reduced scale canned induction motor was manufactured and tested. The experimental results have shown a good agreement with the analysis results.
