This paper presents a model of the cage induction motor based on modified winding function approach (MWF). Employing the winding function technique is made possibleto evaluate the performance of the squirrel cage induction motor in healthy or under, static, dynamic, and mixed eccentricity conditions. The proper modeling of theinduction motor to determine the effects of the rotor eccentricity is investigated through experimental data, which is demonstrating the proposed method as an effective tool for investigating the eccentricity symptom in induction motors.
