Abstract
Standstill frequency response (SSFR) tests were conducted on four induction motors with ratings of 300, 400, 1000, and 1750 horsepower. Using the SSFR test data, an equivalent circuit was derived for each motor. The speed-torque and speed-current curves calculated from the equivalent circuit were compared with those reported by the manufacturer. The comparison showed good agreement of the SSFR-based model with manufacturer's performance curves in the case of the 300 hp motor. Including a simple approximation for saturation effects provided reasonable agreement for the 1000 hp and 1750 hp motors. Results for the 400 hp motor were at considerable variance with manufacturer's curves. >

Bus transfer of multiple induction motor loads in a 400 megawatt fossil power plant

TL;DR: In this article, a computer model capable of simulating multiple induction motors during bus transfer is described and its results compared with field tests, and the results support these findings, but indicate that the combination of high and low-inertia motors fed from the same bus will reduce motor peak-shaft torques when compared to individual transfer of low inertia motor/pump units alone.

Improvement in Modeling and Testing of Induction Motors

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a method for identifying the parameters of a new model of induction motor, which has two rotor loops in order to take into account the deep-bar effect and a non-linear leakage reactance which represents magnetic saturation effect.
