Stator design can not be discussed in a vacuum because it is inseparably connected to the rotor through mutual inductance. Another critical component is the motor enclosure which houses the stator and rotor and facilitates the critical cooling circuit.

In order to achieve the desired motor performance over a wide range of operation, it is critical for the designer to have a clear definition of the application requirements. Unnecessary, contradictory, or confusing information can adversely effect the desired outcome. There are numerous compromises in the design of an electric motor.

The stacked stator core (SSC) can be defined as the stator laminations, air ducts (if needed), and any clamping plate or fingers needed to hold the assembly together prior to insertion into the stator frame. In these cases, this assembly is usually stacked on some sort of arbor to control the stator slot geometry. In larger sizes, the lamination may be stacked directly into the frame, which serves as tooling to control the geometry. These laminations normally are ring laminations made as a full circle. On stators larger than 45” in diameter, a segmented laminations are used.

Typical Motor Grade Electrical Steels
![Page 36: Stator and Rotor design considerations for integral HP machines - Austin Bonnett.pdf](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022022413/577ccd4d1a28ab9e788bfb91/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Low magnetic flux densities often indicate inefficient use of the magnetic materials. However, low is relative, and there are legitimate reasons for using low flux densities than ODP motors simply because there is more magnetic material per horsepower in the TEFC motors, and to use air gap flux density equivalent to that of ODP motors would create starting current problems. Also, low flux density is often inherent in the slow speed of two-speed winding motors. The magnetization of the steel core is not a linear function. The core steel will saturate with flux. When the densities reach saturation, the ampere-turns required to magnetize the steel will increase rapidly, causing high magnetizing current and low motor power factor. Also, high magnetic flux densities in the steel will cause high eddy current and hysteresis losses in the steel, thus lowering the efficiency of the motor and possibly causing it to run too hot.
Effects of Magnetic Flux Density
![Page 37: Stator and Rotor design considerations for integral HP machines - Austin Bonnett.pdf](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022022413/577ccd4d1a28ab9e788bfb91/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
What are the limits for flux densities? Well, isn’t a fixed answer. Design target limits should be in the range of 110-130 kilolines per square inch in the lamination teeth, and 80-110 kilolines per square inch in the backiron. Maximum should not exceed 138 in the teeth and 120 in the core, and even this is too high for most small motors, and for high speed large motors. The usually larger teeth and backiron of high speed motors simply cannot handle the losses associated with using high flux densities. (Backiron densities on the rotors of solid core rotors is usually low because the shaft carries part of the flux. On large rotors with air passages in the rotor, the rotor backiron density must be considered).
Effects of Magnetic Flux Density
![Page 38: Stator and Rotor design considerations for integral HP machines - Austin Bonnett.pdf](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022022413/577ccd4d1a28ab9e788bfb91/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
The magnetization and loss characteristics of the particular steel being used also must be considered. The magnetization curves of various steels will vary only slightly, affecting power factor to the extent that more or less ampere-turns are required to establish the design flux density. However, loss characteristics of lamination steels will vary greatly, and certain steel may not be usable for a particular rating. Good slot design is the key to optimum utilization of the magnetic materials in the motor. Don’t look just at the flux densities, but also at the ampere-turns required to magnetize the various parts of the motor. High ampere-turn requirements for any part (except air gap) is indicative of poor slot design.

Criteria for Random-Woundand Form-Wound Stators
![Page 52: Stator and Rotor design considerations for integral HP machines - Austin Bonnett.pdf](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022022413/577ccd4d1a28ab9e788bfb91/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
In comparing the two processes, keep in mind the basic differences in coil construction and the objectives of treating the coils. The form wound coils are completely wrapped with many layers of non-porous tape. It is voids which can result in hot spots or corona. The random wound coil has no tape in the slot portion and is not susceptible to corona. Because of these differences, several of the steps critical to the form wound stator are not required on the random wound stator. On the form wound construction, a pre-heat is necessary to remove moisture due to the many layers of tape. On the random wound construction, the moisture can be easily removed during the dry vacuum cycle. Again, because of the form wound coil construction, the pressure cycle is required to force the resin into small voids within the coil, whereas on the random wound the coils are more directly exposed to the resin and complete wetting and satisfactory slot fill is obtained during the wet vacuum cycle.

The two common rotor bar materials are copper and aluminum. Traditionally, cast rotors have been aluminum; fabricated rotors can be aluminum or copper. Aluminum alloys and copper alloys have been available for special purposes such as high slip (NEMA type C & D ). In recent years a number of manufacturers have changed from copper to aluminum fabricated rotors. Although the higher conductivity of copper usually gives it a slight advantage in running loss, this can be largely overcome by the optimum shaping available in extruded aluminum bars. Extruded shapes are also available in copper but are very expensive.

Skew is the angular twist of a slot away from the axial direction. Typical skew is one stator slot pitch. The purpose of the skew is to reduce special harmonics in the air gap flux that are introduced by a finite number of slots and the slotting combination.
Skewing
The results of skewing are:• Reduction of induced E.M.F. in the rotor bar.• Decrease in rotor leakage reactance.• A non-uniform axial distribution of the air gap flux.• Skewed bars have a current that has a circumferential componentwhich develops a small axial force which imposes an additional loadon bearings.
• Non-uniform air gap flux increases core and stray losses.• Improved speed-torque characteristics, including elimination oflocking torque at zero speed and cusps at various speeds.
• Reduced likelihood of noise problems.

Sometimes it is necessary to tighten rotor bars during the manufacturing process or during repair and maintenance. Swaging is a relatively easy process which has been used for years. Swaging can also be used to tighten bars that have loosened in service and minimize propagation of bar cracking. The following slide shows a rotor bar before and after swaging.

Currently, the rotors of large induction motors are constructed of either aluminum or copper and their associated alloys. It is interesting that many people exhibit a preference of one or other of these materials in the construction of the rotor, when it is the construction itself that is important when considering rotor life. In fact, both have their advantages and are justified depending upon the specific application.
Aluminum vs Copper Construction Preference
![Page 102: Stator and Rotor design considerations for integral HP machines - Austin Bonnett.pdf](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022022413/577ccd4d1a28ab9e788bfb91/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
Supporters of copper will argue that aluminum melts at 1250° F as compared to copper’s 1980° F melting point, and therefore has greater stall capacity. While true, this disregards that most copper rotors are brazed to the end rings with a brazing alloy that melts at 1100° F. The results of a stall are no less disastrous with either material once the temperature to obtain molten metal is achieved. Extensive testing shown that either material, as normally applied, can be designed to exhibit comparable thermal, electrical and physical characteristics, including fatigue life as related to motor design.

7. Motor Noise & Vibration As Influenced by the Stator and Rotor Design
![Page 106: Stator and Rotor design considerations for integral HP machines - Austin Bonnett.pdf](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022022413/577ccd4d1a28ab9e788bfb91/html5/thumbnails/106.jpg)
Ventilation (windage) noise is created in the air streamused to cool the motor. Windage noise is generated by theair flowing in and around the motor, as follows:1. Fan blades rotating in close proximity to mounting bolts or other
mechanical parts.2. Restrictions in the air stream.3. Abrupt changes in the direction of air flow.4. Rotor air duct vent spacers passing by stationary stator vent
spacers.Generally, the predominant noise source for six-pole and faster
motors (two- through eight-pole speeds for TEFC motors) is ventilation noise. This is due to the higher fan speeds and greater CFM. Thus, to reduce noise levels on two- throughsix-pole motors, the ventilation noise must be reduced.

The magnetic flux in a motor is composed of the rotating fundamental sine-wave and the harmonic components. Only the fundamental wave or field actually provides useful tangential forces and usable rotating torque. Whereas the harmonic components of the wave only produce Parasitic torques which distort the accelerating speed-torque characteristic of the motor.
The presence of these non-sinusoidal fields in the air gap of the motor can result in any of the following detrimental effects;
1. Starting or running noise
2. Synchronous locking torques
3. Dead points at zero speed
4. Torque dips
5. Stray losses
Although it is not practical to eliminate all of these parasitic torques, the proper selection of the stator and rotor slots can minimize these influences. The proper selection of the stator winding span and rotor skew can further reduce these influences.
