Abstract

This paper presents an altered grey wolf optimization, the Taguchi method, and finite element analysis (FEA) with two-phase multi-objective optimization for the design of a six-phase copper squirrel cage rotor induction motor (SCSCRIM). The multi-objective optimization design with high-performance property aims to achieve lower starting current, lower losses, lower input power, higher efficiency, higher output torque, and higher power factor. The multi-objective optimization design with high-performance property using the altered grey wolf optimization, the Taguchi method, and FEA in the first-phase program is used for minimizing the starting current, stator iron loss, stator copper loss, and input power. The multi-objective optimization design with high-performance property using the altered grey wolf optimization, the Taguchi method, and FEA in the second-phase program is used for maximizing the efficiency, output torque, and power factor. Finally, the proposed skill with higher performances is evaluated and verified via a two-phase program design and some performance tests.

Summary

Introduction

Six-phase induction motors [1,2,3] have been used in many domains of electrical power plants, consumer markets, and so on. Cunkas et al [5] proposed an optimal design method to optimize the three-phase aluminum squirrel cage rotor induction motor for optimization of torque, efficiency, and cost by using a genetic algorithm. Parasiliti and Villani [7] proposed the use of a copper cage in three-phase low-voltage induction motors and a design guideline to optimize efficiency according to the new European classification scheme. Kane [9] proposed the use of a copper cage rotor induction motor with higher torque for assisting in engine cranking and peak power mode. Zhang et al [10] proposed the design and evaluation of a die-cast copper squirrel cage rotor induction motor applied in traction drive by using a 2D finite element model. Anwar et al [12] proposed hybrid bio-inspired
