Abstract
The performance evaluation of cage induction motor continues to receive tremendous attention because of its vital effect on the overall system stability. The model has predicted the behavior of cage induction motor under different operating conditions and in selecting the appropriate motor for a specific load application. There is often a challenge when a squirrel cage induction motor is connected to a time-varying load, particularly when the motor is selected without considering the effects of pulsating torques. The usual method used for steady state analysis of induction motors is the equivalent circuit method. Using the per phase equivalent circuit of the induction motor, stator current and referred rotor current were computed using simple circuit analysis. Once the currents are available, then power can be computed because the voltage is already known.

Summary
Three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors are used for different industrial applications (Examples are pump drives, reciprocating compressors, and variable speed drives). An incorrect selection of induction motor always leads to various operational challenges which include sudden motor failure. This premature motor failure causes a severe decrease in plant production. The stator core is made by stacking thin electrical steel laminations with uniformly spaced slots. The rotor consists of a cylindrical laminated iron core with uniformly spaced peripheral slots to accommodate the rotor windings [1]. The rotor conductors of a squirrel cage motor are designed in form of bars passing through slots.
