MATRIX ANALYSIS OF UNSYMMETRICAL MACHINES

Abstract

The matrix method of analysis is applied to the complete analysis of an unsymmetrical machine by considering it as a system of coupled circuits whose relative positions can be varied. The problem thus reduces itself in evaluating at constant speed, the impedance dyadic or matrix Z, which, operating on the current vector, gives rise to the voltage vector. The method is general and is applicable to any type of machine The final equations obtained by the method used in this paper are shown to agree with those obtained by Puchstein and Lloyd, by Burian, as also by Lyon and Kingsley.
