Finite Element Analysis of Universal Motor Based on Reverse Engineering

Abstract

This paper present an innovative methodology in analyzing a universal motor which not having design data by extracted it via reverse engineering . These gained data were used to model the motor by Maxwell program and analyzing it by FEM to get motor performance results , which showed a good agreement with motor test results .The success of a paper methodology proved the possibility of analyzing any electric motor by Maxwell program even if the motor is without design data.
