3-phase induction motors are widely used in industrial applications such as pumps, blowers, compressors, conveyors, etc. In addition, single-phase motors also have domestic use. For this reason, the design of the induction motor is of great importance. During the design, according to the parameters given as input, there are many situations that are contradictory to each other in order to achieve the goal. For example, if high efficiency is required, the motor size and the price will increase, and if lower price is required, other performance characteristics should be ignored. In the practical design of an induction motor, the designer has to comply with a number of constraints because of the large number of input variables. For this reason manual calculation becomes a very long and difficult process. To overcome this tiresome process, it is necessary to create a computer aided program or simulation model to determine the induction motor design parameters. In induction motor design, many parameters directly affect motor performance. Therefore, the selection of these parameters is of great importance. The C 0 coefficient, which takes place in the first steps of the design process, also has a great influence on the motor design. In this paper, a program for optimizing design of 3-phase induction motors written in MATLAB is presented. The structure of the program is modular and therefore can be modified for the various requirements of the induction motor design. C 0 constant (output coefficient), one of the design parameters, also varies with some other parameters. The most important ones are the specific electrical loading coefficient ( A 1 ) and the specific magnetic loading coefficient ( B av ), making dramatic effect on the output coefficient. The effect of the variation of the C 0 constant on the performance of the induction motor was investigated in the study. Stator inner and outer diameter, stack length, stator and rotor slot parameters, equivalent circuit parameters, losses and efficiency was obtained according to the change of B av and A 1 values. The obtained results are given and interpreted in tables and graphs.Downloads
