Abstract
This paper will describe the optimal design of an induction motor for the propulsion of an electric railway. First, the design requirements are satisfied through the basic model, which is designed in a design process using the equivalent circuit. Then, Rotor slot and Airgap are determined by analysis and comparison of torque, torque ripple, efficiency, and power factor. In addition, Rotor slot shape is optimized by using the response surface method. Finally, through the results of equivalent circuit and FEA, the final model is found to satisfy the design requirements; its efficiency was far higher than that of the basic model.
