© 2017 IEEE. A two-dimensional (2-D) field-circuit coupled finite element model of induction motor (IM) is built. The equivalent circuit of three-phase squirrel cage rotor is modeled. Based on time-stepping finite elements analysis (T-S FEA), core loss in the stator of a no-load IM under sinusoidal and Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) excitations is studied. The rotating flux density distributions with time variation at different locations of the stator are obtained. Meanwhile, the waveform and trajectory of magnetic flux density are analyzed. The areas where high-order harmonics mainly concentrated are simulated and the core losses in terms of the Bertotti's three-term separation model are calculated. All presented computations and models are verified through experiments.
