Cyndi Nyberg Former EASA Technical Support Specialist
Stator windings in three-phase motors are designed to have the amount of flux that the core needs to produce the desired output. The number of turns and size of wire are limited by the core dimensions. However, in the squirrel cage rotor, there are many more variables in the design. One of the variables is the shape of the rotor slot. Many rotor designs are skewed. So, why are rotors skewed?
As the rotor turns, discontinuities on the surface of the rotor and stator disrupt the magnetic flux path of the motor. The flux path variation shows up in the form of harmonics that affect the performance of the motor. The difference between the number of stator slots and rotor slots has a significant impact on the harmonics. The motor may be noisy, or there may be stray torques that lower the torque during starting or acceleration. The stator-rotor slot difference is why a motor winding that is redesigned for a different speed may have problems, and why it is important to check the stator-slot-rotor-bar combination before proceeding with the redesign.
