Nowadays the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) represents the most accurate tool available to investigate the electromagnetic operation of electric machines. However, when induced currents have to be calculated, such as in Squirrel-Cage Induction Machines (SCIM), a transient analysis may require a long elaboration time. Such issue is exacerbated when the machine features a skewed stator or rotor, since this requires at least a 2D multi-slice approximated analysis or even ultimately a full 3D model. In this paper, a general analytical method for modeling electromagnetic devices is applied to an industrial SCIM featuring a skewed rotor structure. The modeling approach is wisely implemented to pursue a fair balance between accuracy of the analysis and computational burden, taking advantage of all the symmetries existing in the structure of the machine to minimize the complexity of the model. The results provided by the model developed are compared with respect to the corresponding values provided both by FEA and by experimental tests carried out on the reference machine. Such comparison shows that the proposed model is actually able to achieve a pretty good balance between accuracy and computational efficiency.
