Variable frequency is produced by a voltage source controlled-current inverter which keeps constant the r.m.s. value of the phase current, also assuring a sinusoidal waveform. For the simulations of the machine developed thrust, an equivalent circuit is used. It is obtained through the application of the one-dimensional theory to the modeling. The circuit parameters take into account the end effects, always present is these kind of machines. The phase current waveforms are analyzed for their harmonic contents. Experimental measurements were carried out in laboratory and are presented with the simulations, for comparison.1170-1174engComputer simulationElectric invertersInduction motorsMathematical modelsNatural frequenciesNetworks (circuits)Rotors (windings)Squirrel cage motorsStatorsVoltage controlArc shaped stator induction machineDisc secondary linear induction motorPhase current waveformsVoltage controlled current inverterLinear motorsTrabalho apresentado em evento10.1109/MELCON.1998.699418WOS:000075341900253Acesso aberto2-s2.0-003229861648317899018238490000-0002-9984-9949
